Fast-growing rhizobia isolated from root nodules of soybean

H H Keyser et al. Science. .

Abstract

Fast-growing rhizobia have been isolated from soybean root nodules collected in China. These new isolates are physiologically distinct from slow-growing soybean rhizobia. They formed effective nitrogen-fixing associations with wild soybean and an unbred soybean cultivar from China, but were largely ineffective as nitrogen-fixing symbionts with common commercial cultivars of soybeans.
