Abstract: | When soybean roots were inoculated with Bradyrhizobium elkaniiUSDA76, USDA94 or USDA31, a localized swelling of the root outercortical cells was observed within 10 days after inoculation.This phenotype was designated outer cortical swelling (OCS).OCS was not observed in roots inoculated with B.japonicum USDA110or USDA122. Therefore, the OCS response appears to be specificfor B. elkanii. To determine the involvement of the nodulationgenes in OCS formation, we constructed a nod- mutant, strainUSDA94 |
