| bradyrhizobium kavangense sp. nov., a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterium from root nodules of traditional namibian pulses. | eight strains of symbiotic bacteria from root nodules of local races of cowpea (vigna unguiculata) and bambara groundnut (vigna subterranea) grown on subsistence farmers' fields in the kavango region, namibia, were previously characterized and identified as a novel group within the genus bradyrhizobium. to clarify their taxonomic status, these strains were further characterized using a polyphasic approach. in phylogenetic analysis of the 16s rrna gene sequence the novel group was most closely re ... | 2015 | 26446190 |
