DNA sequencing and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays with lineage-specific primers were used to analyze the diversity of 276 isolates of Bradyrhizobium sp. nodule bacteria associated with 13 native legumes species in the northeastern United States, representing eight genera in six legume tribes. A PCR screen with two primer pairs in the rRNA region indicated that seven of the legume species were exclusively associated with strains having markers resembling Bradyrhizobium elkanii, while the remaining six host species harbored strains related to both B. elkanii and Bradyrhizobium japonicum. Sequence analysis of 22 isolates for portions of 16S rRNA and 23S rRNA yielded congruent phylogenetic trees and showed that isolates from different legume genera often shared similar or identical sequences. However, trees inferred from portions of two other genes (alpha-ketoglutarate dioxygenase gene (tfdA), the alpha-subunit of nitrogenase (nifD)) differed significantly from the rRNA phylogeny. Thus, for Bradyrhizobium populations in this region, lateral gene transfer events appear to have altered genealogical relationships of different portions of the genome. These results extend the number of likely cases of gene transfer between divergent taxa of Bradyrhizobium (from members of the B. elkanii lineage to the B. japonicum group) and suggest that transfers have also occurred among separate subgroups of the B. elkanii lineage.  相似文献

The distribution of tfdAalpha and cadA, genes encoding 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate (2,4-D)-degrading proteins which are characteristic of the 2,4-D-degrading Bradyrhizobium sp. isolated from pristine environments, was examined by PCR and Southern hybridization in several Bradyrhizobium strains including type strains of Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA110 and Bradyrhizobium elkanii USDA94, in phylogenetically closely related Agromonas oligotrophica and Rhodopseudomonas palustris, and in 2,4-D-degrading Sphingomonas strains. All strains showed positive signals for tfdAalpha, and its phylogenetic tree was congruent with that of 16S rRNA genes in alpha-Proteobacteria, indicating evolution of tfdAalpha without horizontal gene transfer. The nucleotide sequence identities between tfdAalpha and canonical tfdA in beta- and gamma-Proteobacteria were 46 to 57%, and the deduced amino acid sequence of TfdAalpha revealed conserved residues characteristic of the active site of alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases. On the other hand, cadA showed limited distribution in 2,4-D-degrading Bradyrhizobium sp. and Sphingomonas sp. and some strains of non-2,4-D-degrading B. elkanii. The cadA genes were phylogenetically separated between 2,4-D-degrading and nondegrading strains, and the cadA genes of 2,4-D degrading strains were further separated between Bradyrhizobium sp. and Sphingomonas sp., indicating the incongruency of cadA with 16S rRNA genes. The nucleotide sequence identities between cadA and tftA of 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetate-degrading Burkholderia cepacia AC1100 were 46 to 53%. Although all root nodule Bradyrhizobium strains were unable to degrade 2,4-D, three strains carrying cadA homologs degraded 4-chlorophenoxyacetate with the accumulation of 4-chlorophenol as an intermediate, suggesting the involvement of cadA homologs in the cleavage of the aryl ether linkage. Based on codon usage patterns and GC content, it was suggested that the cadA genes of 2,4-D-degrading and nondegrading Bradyrhizobium spp. have different origins and that the genes would be obtained in the former through horizontal gene transfer.  相似文献

The genomic diversity among photosynthetic rhizobia from northeast Argentina was assessed. Forty six isolates obtained from naturally occurring stem and root nodules of Aeschynomene rudis plants were analyzed by three molecular typing methods with different levels of taxonomic resolution: repetitive sequence-based PCR (rep-PCR) genomic fingerprinting with BOX and REP primers, amplified 16S rDNA restriction analysis (ARDRA), and 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer-restriction fragment length polymorphism (IGS-RFLP) analysis. The in vivo absorption spectra of membranes of strains were similar in the near infrared region with peaks at 870 and 800 nm revealing the presence of light harvesting complex I, bacteriochlorophyll-binding polypeptides (LHI-Bchl complex). After extraction with acetone-methanol the spectra differed in the visible part displaying peaks belonging to canthaxanthin or spirilloxanthin as the main carotenoid complement. The genotypic characterization by rep-PCR revealed a high level of genomic diversity among the isolates and almost all the photosynthetic ones have identical ARDRA patterns and fell into one cluster different from Bradyrhizobium japonicum and Bradyrhizobium elkanii. In the combined analysis of ARDRA and rep-PCR fingerprints, 7 clusters were found including most of the isolates. Five of those contained only photosynthetic isolates; all canthaxanthin-containing strains grouped in one cluster, most of the other photosynthetic isolates were grouped in a second large cluster, while the remaining three clusters contained a few strains. The other two clusters comprising reference strains of B. japonicum and B. elkanii, respectively. The IGS-RFLP analysis produced similar clustering for almost all the strains. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of one representative isolate was determined and the DNA sequence analysis confirmed the position of photosynthetic rhizobia in a distinct phylogenetic group within the Bradyrhizobium rDNA cluster.  相似文献

Ethiopian Bradyrhizobium strains isolated from root nodules of Crotalaria spp., Indigofera spp., Erythina brucei and soybean (Glycine max) represented genetically diverse phylogenetic groups of the genus Bradyrhizobium. Strains were characterized using the amplified fragment length polymorphism fingerprinting technique (AFLP) and multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) of core and symbiotic genes. Based on phylogenetic analyses of concatenated recA-glnII-rpoB-16S rRNA genes sequences, Bradyrhizobium strains were distributed into fifteen phylogenetic groups under B. japonicum and B. elkanii super clades. Some of the isolates belonged to the species B. yuanmingense, B. elkanii and B. japonicum type I. However, the majority of the isolates represented unnamed Bradyrhizobium genospecies and of these, two unique lineages that most likely represent novel Bradyrhizobium species were identified among Ethiopian strains. The nodulation nodA gene sequence analysis revealed that all Ethiopian Bradyrhizobium isolates belonged to nodA sub-clade III.3. Strains were further classified into 14 groups together with strains from Africa, as well as some originating from the other tropical and subtropics regions. Strains were also clustered into 14 groups in nodY/K phylogeny similarly to the nodA tree. The nifH phylogenies of the Ethiopian Bradyrhizobium were generally also congruent with the nodA gene phylogeny, supporting the monophyletic origin of the symbiotic genes in Bradyrhizobium. The phylogenies of nodA and nifH genes were also partially congruent with that inferred from the concatenated core genes sequences, reflecting that the strains obtained their symbiotic genes vertically from their ancestor as well as horizontally from more distantly related Bradyrhizobium species.  相似文献

AIMS: To isolate and characterize bradyrhizobia that nodulate yardlong bean and sunnhemp in Guam. METHODS AND RESULTS: Bradyrhizobia populations that nodulate yardlong bean and sunnhemp in Guam were examined for genetic diversity and their relatedness to Bradyrhizobium japonicum and B. elkanii reference strains. Genomic DNA of 58 isolates of Bradyrhizobium spp. was hybridized with B. japonicum nodY and B. elkanii nodK genes. Based on the hybridization patterns, the isolates were classified into three nodY-nodK hybridizing groups. Group I comprised the majority of the isolates and hybridized with nodY whereas group II isolates hybridized with nodK. The group III isolates, that did not hybridize with either nodY or nodK, formed nitrogen-fixing nodules on cowpea but did not nodulate soybean. DNA sequence analysis of a 280-bp fragment of the variable region of the 16S rRNA gene of a few group III isolates showed that these isolates were more similar to Bradyrhizobium spp. than to B. japonicum or B. elkanii. CONCLUSIONS: The majority of the isolates nodulating yardlong bean and sunnhemp in Guam are similar to B. japonicum, although some isolates are similar to Bradyrhizobium spp. that nodulate a miscellaneous group of legumes including cowpea. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Since both yardlong bean and sunnhemp are nodulated by a range of bradyrhizobia, selection of superior strains may be based on nodulation effectiveness on both legumes.  相似文献

We obtained nine bacterial isolates from root or collar nodules of the non-stem-nodulated Aeschynomene species A. elaphroxylon, A. uniflora, or A. schimperi and 69 root or stem nodule isolates from the stem-nodulated Aeschynomene species A. afraspera, A. ciliata, A. indica, A. nilotica, A. sensitiva, and A. tambacoundensis from various places in Senegal. These isolates, together with 45 previous isolates from various Aeschynomene species, were studied for host-specific nodulation within the genus Aeschynomene, also revisiting cross-inoculation groups described previously by D. Alazard (Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 50:732-734, 1985). The whole collection of Aeschynomene nodule isolates was screened for synthesis of photosynthetic pigments by spectrometry, high-pressure liquid chromatography, and thin-layer chromatography analyses. The presence of puf genes in photosynthetic Aeschynomene isolates was evidenced both by Southern hybridization with a Rhodobacter capsulatus photosynthetic gene probe and by DNA amplification with primers defined from photosynthetic genes. In addition, amplified 16S ribosomal DNA restriction analysis was performed on 45 Aeschynomene isolates, including strain BTAi1, and 19 reference strains from Bradyrhizobium japonicum, Bradyrhizobium elkanii, and other Bradyrhizobium sp. strains of uncertain taxonomic positions. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of the photosynthetic strain ORS278 (LMG 12187) was determined and compared to sequences from databases. Our main conclusion is that photosynthetic Aeschynomene nodule isolates share the ability to nodulate particular stem-nodulated species and form a separate subbranch on the Bradyrhizobium rRNA lineage, distinct from B. japonicum and B. elkanii.  相似文献

采用PCR-RFLP技术在不同水平上鉴定大豆根瘤菌   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
采用16S rRNA基因PCR扩增与限制性酶切片段多态性分析(RFLP)技术对选自弗氏中华根瘤菌(S.fredii)、大豆慢生根瘤菌(B.japonicum)和埃氏慢生根瘤菌(B.elkanii)的19株代表菌进行了比较分析,根据用3种限制性内切酶的RFLP分析结果,可将供试菌株分为S.fredii,B.japonicum, B.elkanii Ⅱ和B.elkanii Ⅱa等4种基因型。各类菌株之间没有交叉,因此本研究采用的PCR-RFLP技术不失为一种快速鉴别大豆根瘤菌的新方法。采用本技术已将分离自中国的22株快生菌和19株慢生菌分别鉴定为S.frediiB.japonicum。对供试参比菌株和野生型菌株进行的16S~23S基因间隔DNA(IGS)的PCR-RFLP分析结果表明:S.frediiB.japonicum菌株的IGS长度不同,所有供试S.fredii菌株的IGS为2.1 kb,而供试B.japonicum菌株则为2.0 kb。依据RFLP的差异,可将来自中国两个不同地区的S.fredii株区分为2个基因型,而来自中国东北黑龙江地区的19株B.japonicum菌株则可分为11个基因型。对上述野生型菌株还进行了REP-PCR和ERIC-PCR分析并确定其具有菌株水平的特异性。  相似文献

The cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.), peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), and mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) belong to a group of plants known as the "cowpea miscellany" plants, which are widely cultivated throughout the tropic and subtropical zones of Africa and Asia. However, the phylogeny of the rhizobial strains that nodulate these plants is poorly understood. Previous studies have isolated a diversity of rhizobial strains from cowpea miscellany hosts and have suggested that, phylogenetically, they are from different species. In this work, the phylogeny of 42 slow-growing rhizobial strains, isolated from root nodules of cowpea, peanut, and mung bean from different geographical regions of China, was investigated using sequences from the 16S rRNA, atpD and glnII genes, and the 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer. The indigenous rhizobial strains from the cowpea miscellany could all be placed in the genus Bradyrhizobium , and Bradyrhizobium liaoningense and Bradyrhizobium yuanmingense were the main species. Phylogenies derived from housekeeping genes were consistent with phylogenies generated from the ribosomal gene. Mung bean rhizobia clustered only into B. liaoningense and B. yuanmingense and were phylogenetically less diverse than cowpea and peanut rhizobia. Geographical origin was significantly reflected in the phylogeny of mung bean rhizobia. Most cowpea rhizobia were more closely related to the 3 major groups B. liaoningense, B. yuanmingense, and Bradyrhizobium elkanii than to the minor groups Bradyrhizobium japonicum or Bradyrhizobium canariense . However, most peanut rhizobia were more closely related to the 2 major groups B. liaoningense and B. yuanmingense than to the minor group B. elkanii.  相似文献

Enzyme electrophoresis and rRNA sequencing were used to analyze relationships of Bradyrhizobium sp. nodule bacteria from four papilionoid legumes (Clitoria javitensis, Erythrina costaricensis, Rhynchosia pyramidalis, and Desmodium axillare) growing on Barro Colorado Island (BCI), Panama. Bacteria with identical multilocus allele profiles were commonly found in association with two or more legume genera. Among the 16 multilocus genotypes (electrophoretic types [ETs]) detected, six ETs formed a closely related cluster that included isolates from all four legume taxa. Bacteria from two other BCI legumes (Platypodium and Machaerium) sampled in a previous study were also identical to certain ETs in this group. Isolates from different legume genera that had the same ET had identical nucleotide sequences for both a 5' portion of the 23S rRNA and the nearly full-length 16S rRNA genes. These results suggest that Bradyrhizobium genotypes with low host specificity may be prevalent in this tropical forest. Parsimony analysis of 16S rRNA sequence variation indicated that most isolates were related to Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA 110, although one ET sampled from C. javitensis had a 16S rRNA gene highly similar to that of Bradyrhizobium elkanii USDA 76. However, this isolate displayed a mosaic structure within the 5' 23S rRNA region: one 84-bp segment was identical to that of BCI isolate Pe1-3 (a close relative of B. japonicum USDA 110, based on 16S rRNA data), while an adjacent 288-bp segment matched that of B. elkanii USDA 76. This mosaic structure is one of the first observations suggesting recombination in nature between Bradyrhizobium isolates related to B. japonicum versus B. elkanii.  相似文献

Previously, restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis using the nodD1YABC gene probe showed the genetic diversity of common nodD1ABC gene regions of Bradyrhizobium japonicum, Bradyrhizobium elkanii, and the Thai soybean Bradyrhizobium. The nodD1 sequences of representative strains of the 3 groups differed phylogenetically, suggesting that responses of NodD1 proteins of the 3 Bradyrhizobium groups to diverse flavonoids may differ. To confirm this hypothesis, 6 representative strains were chosen from the 3 Bradyrhizobium groups. Six reporter strains were constructed, all carrying the pZB32 plasmid, which contains a nod box and the nodY-lacZ fusion of B. japonicum USDA 110. Differences in nodY-lacZ expression among the strains in response to 37 flavonoid compounds at various concentrations were evaluated. Of those compounds, prunetin (4',5-dihydroxy-7-methoxyisoflavone) and esculetin (6,7-dihydroxycoumarin) were identified as Bradyrhizobium group-specific nod gene inducers. Esculetin showed nod gene induction activities unique to Thai Bradyrhizobium strains. The levels of nodY-lacZ induction among B. japonicum and Thai Bradyrhizobium strains increased with increasing concentration of prunetin, whereas, those in B. elkanii strains did not.  相似文献

The Brazilian inoculant strains 29W and 587 were found to be members of Bradyrhizobium elkanii primarily on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequences identical to that of B. elkanii USDA76 and on the basis of reactivity with antibodies against serogroups 76 and 31, respectively. The agronomic consequences of using strains of B. elkanii as soybean inoculants are discussed.  相似文献

Assays with seven sets of lineage-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers in the ribosomal RNA region were performed on 96 isolates of the Bradyrhizobium sp. nodule bacteria from Barro Colorado Island, Panama. The isolates were derived from 10 legume host species in six genera (Centrosema, Desmodium, Dioclea, Inga, Machaerium and Vigna). The PCR assays differentiated 13 composite genotypes, and sequencing of a 5' 23S rRNA region indicated that all but one had a unique sequence. The most common genotype (seen in 44% of the isolates) was associated with all six legume host genera, and had a marker profile and 5' 23S rRNA sequence identical to a Bradyrhizobium lineage associated with several other legume genera in Panama and Costa Rica. Another 46% of the isolates had genotypes found to be associated with two to three legume genera. Bradyrhizobium strains with low host specificity thus appear to be prevalent in this tropical forest. Based on 16S rRNA and 5' 23S rRNA markers, most of the isolates had clear affinities to either B. japonicum or B. elkanii. However, one strain (Cp5-3) with a B. elkanii-type 16S rRNA marker had a 5' 23S rRNA region resembling B. japonicum. A partition homogeneity test indicated that relationships of strain Cp5-3 were significantly discordant for 16S rRNA vs. 23S rRNA sequences, and a runs test detected significant mosaic structure across the rRNA region. Lateral gene transfer events have therefore played a role in the evolution of symbiotic bacteria in this environment.  相似文献

The draft sequence of the genome of Bradyrhizobium elkanii 587 is presented. This was obtained using Illumina Next-Gen DNA sequencing combined with Sanger sequencing. Genes for the pathways involved in biological nitrogen fixation (the nif gene cluster), nod genes including nodABC, and genes for the type III protein secretion system (T3SS) are present.  相似文献

To elucidate the phylogenetic relationships between Thai soybean bradyrhizobia and USDA strains of Bradyrhizobium, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis using the nifDK gene probe and sequencing of the partial 16S rRNA gene were performed. In our previous work, Thai isolates of Bradyrhizobium sp. (Glycine max) were separated clearly from Bradyrhizobium japonicum and Bradyrhizobium elkanii based on the RFLP analysis using the nodDYABC gene probe. RFLP analysis using the nifDK gene probe divided 14 Thai isolates and eight USDA strains of B. japonicum into different groups, respectively, but categorized into the same cluster. All of seven strains within these Thai isolates had the same sequence of the partial 16S rRNA gene, and it was an intermediate sequence between those of B. japonicum USDA 110 and B. elkanii USDA 76T. Furthermore, three USDA strains of B. japonicum, USDA of (B. japonicum ATCC 10324T), USDA 115 and USDA 129, had the same partial 16S rRNA gene sequence that seven Thai isolates had. These results suggest that Thai isolates of Bradyrhizobium sp. (Glycine max) are genetically distinct from USDA strains of B. japonicum and B. elkanii, but also indicate a close relationship between Thai isolates and USDA strains of B. japonicum.  相似文献

Many undomesticated legumes harbor nodule bacteria related to the soybean symbiont Bradyrhizobium elkanii, but little is known about their phylogenetic relationships or geographic distribution. Sequences of ribosomal genes (16S rRNA and partial 23S rRNA) and the nitrogenase alpha-subunit gene (nifD) were analyzed in 22 isolates of this group sampled from diverse legumes in Korea, Japan, the USA, Mexico, Costa Rica and Panama. Some strains from Asia and North America shared identical sequences for both ribosomal genes. However, pairs of strains with closely related nifD sequences were almost never found in different regions. The major exceptions involved North American isolates B. elkanii USDA 76 and USDA 94, which had nifD sequences highly similar to certain Korean strains. However, 16S rRNA sequences of USDA 76 and USDA 94 were closely related to Central American rather than Asian bradyrhizobia, implying that these strains are genetic mosaics combining sequences from distinct ancestral areas. Several other conflicts between rRNA and nifD tree topologies indicated that the genealogical histories of these loci have been influenced by recurrent lateral gene transfer events.  相似文献

Enzyme electrophoresis and sequencing of rRNA and dnaK genes revealed high genetic diversity among root nodule bacteria from the Costa Rican trees Andira inermis, Dalbergia retusa, Platymiscium pinnatum (Papilionoideae tribe Dalbergieae) and Lonchocarpus atropurpureus (Papilionoideae tribe Millettieae). A total of 21 distinct multilocus genotypes [ETs (electrophoretic types)] was found among the 36 isolates analyzed, and no ETs were shared in common by isolates from different legume hosts. However, three of the ETs from D. retusa were identical to Bradyrhizobium sp. isolates detected in prior studies of several other legume genera in both Costa Rica and Panama. Nearly full-length 16S rRNA sequences and partial 23S rRNA sequences confirmed that two isolates from D. retusa were highly similar or identical to Bradyrhizobium strains isolated from the legumes Erythrina and Clitoria (Papilionoideae tribe Phaseoleae) in Panama. rRNA sequences for five isolates from L. atropurpureus, P. pinnatum and A. inermis were not closely related to any currently known strains from Central America or elsewhere, but had affinities to the reference strains Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA 110 (three isolates) or to B. elkanii USDA 76 (two isolates). A phylogenetic tree for 21 Bradyrhizobium strains based on 603 bp of the dnaK gene showed several significant conflicts with the rRNA tree, suggesting that genealogical relationships may have been altered by lateral gene transfer events.  相似文献

Partial sequences of three nod genes (nodC, nodD1, and nodA 5' flanking region) and of 16S and 23S rDNA were obtained from isolates of Bradyrhizobium sp. associated with the native North American legume Amphicarpaea bracteata. Isolates from Amphicarpaea had identical sequences in the three nod gene regions, but differed from all other Bradyrhizobium taxa at > 10% of nucleotide sites. Parsimony analysis of all nod gene segments indicated a phylogenetic relationship of these bacteria to B. elkanii, with B. japonicum diverging prior to the diversification of these taxa. All Bradyrhizobium isolates from Amphicarpaea were also identical to B. elkanii in the size of the intervening sequence (IVS) in the 5' region of the 23S rRNA gene, while B. japonicum had an IVS length variant with 29 additional nucleotides. Parsimony analysis of both 16S and 23S partial rDNA sequences grouped Bradyrhizobium sp. isolates from Amphicarpaea into a clade together with B. elkanii, consistent with the relationships inferred from nod sequences.  相似文献

Abstract A combined subtraction hybridization and polymerase chain reaction/amplification technique was used to develop a DNA probe which was specific for the Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar phaseoli and the Rhizobium tropici group. Total genomic DNA preparations from Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar viciae, Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar trifolii, Rhizobium sp., Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Rhizobium fredii, Bradyrhizobium japonicum, Bradyrhizobium ssp. and Rhizobium meliloti were pooled and used as subtracter DNA against total genomic DNA from the Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar phaseolo strain KIM5s. Only one round of subtraction hybridization at 65°C was necessary to remove all cross-hybridizing sequences. Dot blot hybridizations with total genomic DNA of the eight subtracter organisms and 29 bacteria of different groups confirmed the high specificity of the isolated DNA sequences. Dot blot hybridizations and total genomic DNA from ten different R. Leguminosarum biovar phaseoli and R. tropici strains resulted in strong hybridization signals for all strains tested. The DNA probe for the R. tropici and R. leguminosarum biovar phaseoli group was used for dot blot hybridization with DNA extracts from three tropical and one boreal soil. When correlated with data from Most Probable Number analyses the probe was capable of detecting as low as 3 × 104 homologous indigenous rhizobia per g soil. The technique offers great benefits for the development of DNA probes for monitoring bacterial populations in environmental samples.  相似文献

Thirty-six strains of slow-growing rhizobia isolated from nodules of four woody legumes endemic to the Canary islands were characterised by 16S rDNA PCR-RFLP analyses (ARDRA) and LMW RNA profiling, and compared with reference strains representing Bradyrhizobium japonicum, B. elkanii, B. liaoningense, and two unclassified Bradyrhizobium sp. (Lupinus) strains. Both techniques showed similar results, indicating the existence of three genotypes among the Canarian isolates. Analysis of the combined RFLP patterns obtained with four endonucleases, showed the existence of predominant genotype comprising 75% of the Canarian isolates (BTA-1 group) and the Bradyrhizobium sp. (Lupinus) strains. A second genotype was shared by nine Canarian isolates (BGA-1 group) and the B. japonicum and B. liaoningense reference strains. The BES-5 strain formed an independent group, as also did the B. elkanii reference strains. LMW RNA profile analysis consistently resolved the same three genotypes detected by 16S ARDRA among the Canarian isolates, and suggested that all these isolates are genotypically more related to B. japonicum than to B. elkanii or B. liaoningense. Cluster analysis of the combined 16S ARDRA and LMW RNA profiles resolved the BTA-1 group with the Bradyrhizobium sp. (Lupinus) strains, and the BES-5 isolate, as a well separated sub-branch of the B. japonicum cluster. Thus, the two types of analyses indicated that the isolates related to BTA-1 conform a group of bradyrhizobial strains that can be clearly distinguishable from representatives of the tree currently described Bradyrhizobium species. No correlation between genotypes, host legumes, and geographic location was found.  相似文献
