Abstract excerpt
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was performed with nine strains of Bradyrhizobium japonicum (a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterium associated with soybean) and eight other members of the Bradyrhizobiaceae by DNA macroarray of B. japonicum USDA110. CGH clearly discriminated genomic variations in B. japonicum strains, but similar CGH patterns were observed in other members of the Bradyrhizobiaceae. The most...
