Abstract:This study aimed to transfer chitinase genes into Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. vicia in order to enhance the defense of faba bean plants against soil pathogens, in addition to , improving symbiotic nitrogen fixation, as well. Toward this target, 12 transconjugants resulted from conjugation between Pseudomonas flurocescens and Serratia marcescence as a donors against four strains of Rhizobium leguminosarum. The donar strains were tested for chitinolytic activity depending on chitin hydrolysis zone appeared on ch… Show more
