Establishing mutualistic interactions in novel environments is important for the successful establishment of some non-native plant species. These associations may, in turn, impact native species interaction networks as non-natives become dominant in their new environments. Using phylogenetic and ecological interaction network approaches we provide the first report of the structure of belowgroun...

UNLABELLED Bacteria play important roles in mineral weathering, soil formation, and element cycling. However, little is known about the interaction between silicate minerals and rhizobia. In this study, Rhizobium yantingense H66 (a novel mineral-weathering rhizobium) and Rhizobium etli CFN42 were compared with respect to potash feldspar weathering, mineral surface adsorption, and metabolic acti...

The role of glycine betaine and choline in osmoprotection of various Rhizobium, Sinorhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Agrobacterium, and Bradyrhizobium reference strains which display a large variation in salt tolerance was investigated. When externally provided, both compounds enhanced the growth of Rhizobium tropici, Sinorhizobium meliloti, Sinorhizobium fredii, Rhizobium galegae, Agrobacterium tumef...

Aim of present study is to evaluate the effect of salinity on the growth of Rhizobium symbiosis with various cultivars of Berseem (WARDAN, BB3, JHB 052 and BB2). Two sets of plots were maintained in which one set contained non-inoculated while another set contained inoculated seeds with Rhizobium culture, which were irrigated with saline waters of different concentrations (0, 3, 6, 7.2, 10, 12 ...

Rhizobium sp. strain IRBG74 is the first known nitrogen-fixing symbiont in the Agrobacterium/Rhizobium clade that nodulates the aquatic legume Sesbania sp. and is also a growth-promoting endophyte of wetland rice. Here, we present the sequence of the IRBG74 genome, which is composed of a circular chromosome, a linear chromosome, and a symbiotic plasmid, pIRBG74a.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the nodS gene from the bean-nodulating Rhizobium etli, presumably encoding a methyltransferase, was determined. A phylogenetic analysis of five different NodS proteins from three genera of Gram- soil bacteria, Azorhizobium, Bradyrhizobium and Rhizobium, was performed.

Rhizobium esperanzae CNPSo 668T is a nitrogen-fixing symbiont of Phaseolus vulgaris isolated from Mexican soils. Its genome is estimated at 6,294,057 bp, with 6,219 coding sequences (CDSs) showing higher similarity (92.9%) with Rhizobium etli Three copies of the regulatory nodD, in addition to other nodulation genes, should define its host specificity.

The genus Rhizobium contains many species that are able to form nitrogen-fixing nodules on plants of the legume family. Here, we report the 5.5-Mb draft genome sequence of the salt-tolerant Rhizobium sp. strain LCM 4573, which has a G+C content of 61.2% and 5,356 candidate protein-encoding genes.

The field experiment entitled “Evaluation of growth and yield Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) influenced by Biofertilizers Phosphorus” was conducted during rabi season, 2022 at Crop Research Farm in the Department agronomy, Naini Agriculture Institute, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology Sciences, Prayagraj Uttar Pradesh. treatment consisted three levels Biofertilizer Rhizobium, P...

Here we present the genome sequence of Rhizobium grahamii CCGE502. R. grahamii groups with other newly described broad-host-range species, which are not very efficient Phaseolus vulgaris symbionts, with a wide geographic distribution and which constitutes a novel Rhizobium clade.
