| rhizobium altiplani sp. nov., isolated from effective nodules on mimosa pudica growing in untypically alkaline soil in central brazil. | root nodule bacteria were isolated from nodules on mimosa pudica l. growing in neutral-alkaline soils from the distrito federal in central brazil. the 16s rrna gene sequence analysis of 10 strains placed them into the genus rhizobium with the closest neighbouring species (each with 99 % similarity) being rhizobium grahamii, rhizobium cauense, rhizobium mesoamericanum and rhizobium tibeticum. this high similarity, however, was not confirmed by multi-locus sequence analysis (mlsa) using three hous ... | 2016 | 27453319 |
