Proof that Burkholderia strains form effective symbioses with legumes: A study of novel Mimosa-nodulating strains from South America
Article Abstract:
Twenty Minosa-nodulating bacterial strains from Brazil and Venezuela, together with eight reference Mimosa-nodulating rhizobial strains and two other beta-rhizobial strains are examined by amplified rRNA gene restriction analysis. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of 15 of the 20 strains are determined and all are revealed to belong to the genus Burkholderia.

Unexpectedly diverse Mesorhizobium strains and Rhizobium leguminosarum nodulate native legume genera of New Zealand, while introduced legume weeds are nodulated by Bradyrhizobium species
Article Abstract:
Studies done to identify the rhizobial symbionts of both native and introduced New Zealand legumes and to find out whether these are putatively indigenous or cosmopolitan strains are discussed. Results demonstrate that native legume genera and introduced legume genera does not have the same rhizobial populations.
