Abstract excerpt
The bacterial genetic diversity after long-term arable cultivation was compared with that under permanent grassland using replicated paired contrasts. Pea-nodulating Rhizobium leguminosarum populations were sampled from pairs of arable and grass sites at four locations in Yorkshire, United Kingdom. Isolates were characterized using both chromosomal (16S-23S ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer...
