| Abstract: | Semi-solid medium was used to isolate an aerobic, N2-fixing (C2H2-reducing), H2-utilizing bacterium from the roots of kallar grass ( Leptochloa fusca ). The organism was identified by morphological, cultural and biochemical characteristics. The N2-fixing, zoogloeal floc-forming isolate described here is a new species. |
