mesorhizobial strains nodulating anagyris latifolia and lotus berthelotii in tamadaya ravine (tenerife, canary islands) are two symbiovars of the same species, mesorhizobium tamadayense sp. nov. | barranco de tamadaya is a deep ravine located in southern tenerife, which is included within a protected area where several endemic plants grow. among them, two legumes are catalogued as critically endangered, anagyris latifolia and lotus berthelotii. rhizobial strains isolated from their root nodules grown in soil samples from this ravine harboured symbiotic genes belonging to two distant symbiovars, but they shared identical 16s rrna gene sequences (rrs). the phylogeny based on the rrs sequenc ... | 2012 | 22749782 |
