Abstract excerpt
In this study a collection of rhizobial strains were isolated from effective nodules of Phaseolus vulgaris in a wide region of northern Spain, which is the major producer region of this legume in Spain. The analysis of their core genes, rrs, atpD, and recA, and the 16S-23S intergenic spacer showed that all isolates belong to the phylogenetic group of Rhizobium leguminosarum and some of them were identical to...
