Nodulation of acacia species by fast- and slow-growing tropical strains of Rhizobium

B L Dreyfus et al. Appl Environ Microbiol. 1981 Jan.

Abstract

Thirteen Acacia species were classified into three groups according to effective nodulation response patterns with fast- and slow-growing tropical strains of Rhizobium. The first group nodulated effectively with slow-growing, cowpea-type Rhizobium strains; the second, with fast-growing Rhizobium strains; and the third, with both fast- and slow-growing Rhizobium strains. The Rhizobium requirements of the Acacia species of the second group were similar to those of Leucaena leucocephala.
