Abstracts |
The progress in the Rhizobium-Bradyrhizobium legume symbiosis are reviewed. From the 11 most important soyabean cultivars in India and Nepal, the most efficient and competitive Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains are selected and characterized with new molecular genetical methods, using results for cultivar-strain specificities (nol, nod genes) and new data on the biodiversity of Bradyrhizobium species. Important results from the biotechnology and biodiversity of the arbuscular mycorrhiza symbiosis are reported with the collaborative examples, namely Trifolium pratense-Glomus mosseae, Allium cepa-Glomus mosseae and Nicotiana tabacum-Glomus intraradices. Finally, the antagonistic soil bacteria and defence reactions in symbiotic interactions, are also discussed. |
