| characterization of symbiotic and endophytic bacteria isolated from root nodules of herbaceous legumes grown in qinghai-tibet plateau and in other zones of china. | qinghai-tibet plateau is the highest place in the world and the environment in that plateau is hard for animals and plants, with low temperature, low concentration of oxygen and high solar radiation. in this study, 61 root nodule isolates from vicia, oxytropis, medicago, melilotus and onobrychis species grown in qinghai-tibet plateau and in loess plateau were comparatively characterized. based upon the results of numerical taxonomy, ardra, aflp, dna-dna hybridization and 16s rdna sequencing, the ... | 2007 | 17541555 |
| the biogeochemistry of selenium in sunan grassland, gansu, northwest china, casts doubt on the belief that marco polo reported selenosis for the first time in history. | in order to clarify the historic academic problem of whether or not livestock poisoning in ancient suzhou of northwest china, recorded by marco polo in 1295, was selenosis, this study deals with the biogeochemistry of selenium in sunan county in the hexi corridor, which is part of ancient suzhou in china. it was found that quite a number of farm animals had suffered from intoxication and died as a result of grazing poisonous grasses, mostly oxytropis dc, stellera chamaejasme, and achnatheru ineb ... | 2008 | 18351293 |
| mesorhizobium gobiense sp. nov. and mesorhizobium tarimense sp. nov., isolated from wild legumes growing in desert soils of xinjiang, china. | twenty-four mesorhizobium strains were isolated from desert soils in the xinjiang region of china and were characterized by a polyphasic approach. these strains grouped into three clusters in igs-rflp, sds-page analysis of whole-cell proteins and box-pcr analysis, corresponding to genomic species v, vi and vii as found in a previous study. the results were supported by sequencing analyses of rrs, igs, atpd and reca genes. genospecies vii was most related to mesorhizobium septentrionale, while ge ... | 2008 | 18984702 |
| rhizobium tubonense sp. nov., isolated from root nodules of oxytropis glabra. | four rhizobial strains, designated ccbau 85046(t), ccbau 85051, ccbau 85048 and ccbau 85049, isolated from root nodules of oxytropis glabra grown in tibet, china, were previously defined, using amplified 16s rrna gene restriction analysis, as a novel group within the genus rhizobium. to clarify their taxonomic position, these strains were further analysed and compared with reference strains of related bacteria using a polyphasic approach. the 16s rrna gene analysis showed that the four isolates ... | 2011 | 20382797 |
| [distribution of endophytic fungi in oxytropis glabra dc]. | endophytic fungi were detected and isolated from the stems, leaves, petioles and seeds of oxytropis glabra dc sampled from alashan of inner mongolia to investigate the infection rate and species distribution in different tissues. | 2013 | 23957152 |
| cerebellar ataxia suspected to be caused by oxytropis glabra poisoning in western mongolian goats. | in the last five years in western mongolia, a neurological disorder and resultant economic loss have developed in goats, sheep, cattle and horses: association of the disease with ingestion of oxytropis glabra, a toxic plant, was suggested. affected goats showed neurological signs, including ataxia, incoordination, hind limb paresis, fine head tremor and nystagmus. three goats, one with moderate clinical signs and the other two with severe clinical signs, were necropsied and examined to describe ... | 2014 | 24572629 |
