Most species in the Leguminosae (legume family) can fix atmospheric nitrogen (N2) via
symbiotic bacteria (rhizobia) in root nodules. Here, the literature on legume-rhizobia …

Rhizobial symbiosis genes are often carried on symbiotic islands or plasmids that can be
transferred (horizontal transfer) between different bacterial species. Symbiosis genes …

Nitrogen‐fixing symbiosis is globally important in ecosystem functioning and agriculture, yet
the evolutionary history of nodulation remains the focus of considerable debate. Recent …

This study focused on rhizobacteria to promote sustainable crop production in arid regions
of Saudi Arabia. The study isolated 17 tightly root-adhering rhizobacteria from various plants …

Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan L. Millsp.) is a legume crop resilient to climate change due to its
tolerance to drought. It is grown by millions of resource-poor farmers in semiarid and tropical …

Nodules of Chamaecrista pumila growing in several locations in India were sampled for
anatomical studies and for characterization of their rhizobial microsymbionts. Regardless of …

The genetic diversity of bacterial populations nodulating Lupinus luteus (yellow lupine) in
Northern Tunisia was examined. Phylogenetic analyses of 43 isolates based on recA and …

Vachellia karroo (formerly Acacia karroo) is a wide-spread legume species indigenous to
southern Africa. Little is known regarding the identity or diversity of rhizobia that associate …
