Nodulation of Lupinus albus by strains of Ochrobactrum lupini sp. nov
Article Abstract:
The phylogenetic relationships of strains LUP21 and LUP23, which are isolated from nodules of Lupinus honoratus, are examined and the symbiotic genes that encode for nodulation and nitrogen fixation are detected and characterized. The studies including phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and molecular features of the strains isolated in this analysis showed that they belong to a new species of the genus Ochrobactrum, which is named as Ochtobactrum lupini sp. nov.

European origin of Bradyrhizobium populations infecting lupins and serradella in soils of Western Australia and South Africa
Article Abstract:
A multilocus phylogenetic approach is applied to elucidate the origin of serradella and lupin Bradyrhizobium strains that persist in soils of Western Australia and South Africa. The observed dominance of Bradyrhizobium carariense strains might be related to this species' adaptation to acid soils common in Western Australia and South Africa and to their intrinsic ability to compete for nodulation of lupins and serradella.

Diversification of lupine Bradyrhizobium strains: Evidence from nodulation gene trees
Article Abstract:
The issue of lupine lineages is addressed by searching for possible biographic patterns preserved in nod gene phylogenies, with the help of Bradyrhizobium strains isolated mainly from lupine nodules of native Andean and lowland South American lupines.
