Screening of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii for adaptation to acid and neutral soils using a selective agar medium

The current interest in growth of legumes in acid soils has stimulated the search for strains of rhizobia adapted to such soils. In addition we wished to detect any adaptation of strains to selection pressures imposed by acid and neutral soils. Using the medium developed for this investigation, we f...

Zusammenfassung:The current interest in growth of legumes in acid soils has stimulated the search for strains of rhizobia adapted to such soils. In addition we wished to detect any adaptation of strains to selection pressures imposed by acid and neutral soils. Using the medium developed for this investigation, we found such adaptation does occur.
