Las cepas fueron aisladas de nódulos de tres variedades de frijol (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) de suelos de La Molina. En la caracterización fenotípica, el 64.35 % de las cepas crecieron a 37°C; el 57.1% de las cepas toleraron pH4 y el 87% de las cepas fueron afectadas a concentraciones superiores a 0.5% de NaCl. En el ensayo en plantas de frijol, el 84.6% de las cepas, formaron nódulos efectivos e infectivos en la variedad ´Canario Centenario´. La cepa 17, no noduladora, incrementó el peso seco de parte aérea (PSPA) en 38.24 % con respecto al N-, siendo esta diferencia la mayor estadísticamente significativa (p<0.05). En el análisis de agrupamiento integrado, se obtuvieron cuatro grupos: los Grupos I y III cada uno conformado por una cepa, el Grupo II diez cepas y el Grupo IV dos cepas. En el Grupo III, la cepa 17 destacó porque contribuyó significativamente al crecimiento de las plántulas de frijol y en el Grupo IV, las cepas 4 y 5 fueron tolerantes hasta 2% de salinidad. Todas las cepas tuvieron la capacidad de solubilizar fosfato, produjeron AIA y ninguna inhibió el crecimiento del hongo Macrophomina phaseolicola. Éstos resultados nos indican la diversidad de cepas de Rhizobium que nodulan frijol, y permite seleccionar aquellas con mejor potencial PGPR para posterior aplicación como bioinoculantes, que aportan nitrógeno al cultivo y no contaminan los suelos. Palabras clave: Rhizobium, Rizobacterias promotoras del crecimiento de plantas (PGPR), Phaseolus vulgaris 6 ABSTRACT In this investigation were isolated 23 bacterial strains, fourteen strains belonging to the genus Rhizobium and nine strains to Agrobacterium and / or other genres. The strains were isolated from nodules of three varieties of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in soils of La Molina. The phenotypic characterization, the 64.35% of strains grown at 37 ° C, 57.1% of the strains tolerated pH4 and 87% of the strains were affected at concentrations above 0.5% NaCl. In the test in bean plants, 84.6% of strains formed effective nodules and infective in the variety 'Canario Centenario'. Strain 17, not nodule, increased the dry weight of aerial part (PSPA) at 38.24% compared to the N-, the largest difference being statistically significant (p <0.05). In the integrated cluster analysis, we obtained four groups: Groups I and III each consisting of one strain, ten strains of Group II and Group IV two strains. In Group III, strain 17 out because it contributed significantly to the growth of bean seedlings and Group IV, 4 and 5 strains were tolerant to 2% salinity. All strains were able to solubilize phosphate produced AIA and inhibited the growth of the fungus Macrophomina phaseolicola. These results indicate the diversity of strains of Rhizobium nodulating of beans, and to select those with the best potential for further application as PGPR bioinoculants that add nitrogen to the crop and not contamite the soil.

  • Comparative Genomics of Bradyrhizobium Japonicum CPAC
    Siqueira et al. BMC Genomics 2014, 15:420 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/15/420 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Comparative genomics of Bradyrhizobium japonicum CPAC 15 and Bradyrhizobium diazoefficiens CPAC 7: elite model strains for understanding symbiotic performance with soybean Arthur Fernandes Siqueira1,2†, Ernesto Ormeño-Orrillo3†,RangelCelsoSouza4,ElisetePainsRodrigues5, Luiz Gonzaga Paula Almeida4, Fernando Gomes Barcellos5, Jesiane Stefânia Silva Batista6, Andre Shigueyoshi Nakatani2, Esperanza Martínez-Romero3, Ana Tereza Ribeiro Vasconcelos4 and Mariangela Hungria1,2* Abstract Background: The soybean-Bradyrhizobium symbiosis can be highly efficient in fixing nitrogen, but few genomic sequences of elite inoculant strains are available. Here we contribute with information on the genomes of two commercial strains that are broadly applied to soybean crops in the tropics. B. japonicum CPAC 15 (=SEMIA 5079) is outstanding in its saprophytic capacity and competitiveness, whereas B. diazoefficiens CPAC 7 (=SEMIA 5080) is known for its high efficiency in fixing nitrogen. Both are well adapted to tropical soils. The genomes of CPAC 15 and CPAC 7 were compared to each other and also to those of B. japonicum USDA 6T and B. diazoefficiens USDA 110T. Results: Differences in genome size were found between species, with B. japonicum having larger genomes than B. diazoefficiens. Although most of the four genomes were syntenic, genome rearrangements within and between species were observed, including events in the symbiosis island. In addition to the symbiotic region, several genomic islands were identified. Altogether, these features must confer high genomic plasticity that might explain adaptation and differences in symbiotic performance. It was not possible to attribute known functions to half of the predicted genes.

Received: 27 November 2019; Accepted: 9 January 2020; Published: 10 January 2020 Abstract: Members of the Microvirga genus are metabolically versatile and widely distributed in Nature. However, knowledge of the bacteria that belong to this genus is currently limited to biochemical characteristics. Herein, a novel thermo-tolerant bacterium named Microvirga thermotolerans HR1 was isolated and identified. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the strain HR1 belonged to the genus Microvirga and was highly similar to Microvirga sp. 17 mud 1-3. The strain could grow at temperatures ranging from 15 to 50 ◦C with a growth optimum at 40 ◦C. It exhibited tolerance to pH range of 6.0–8.0 and salt concentrations up to 0.5% (w/v). It contained ubiquinone 10 as the predominant quinone and added group 8 as the main fatty acids.

These isolates had cultural characteristics on YMA quite similar to Azorhizobium caulinodans (alkalinization, scant extracellular polysaccharide production, fast or intermediate growth rate). They exhibited a high similarity of phenotypic and genotypic characteristics among themselves and to a lesser extent with A. caulinodans. DNA:DNA hybridization and 16SrRNA sequences support their inclusion in the genus Azorhizobium, but not in the species A. caulinodans.

Ap.P. 565A, 62251 Cuerna6aca, Mexico Received 19 September 2000; received in revised form 16 January 2001; accepted 2 February 2001 Abstract Maize (Zea mays) and bean (Phaseolus 6ulgaris) have been traditionally grown in association for thousands of years in Mesoamerica. From surface sterilized maize roots, we have isolated over 60 Rhizobium strains that correspond to Rhizobium etli bv. phaseoli (the main symbiont of bean) on the basis of 16S rRNA gene restriction patterns, metabolic enzyme electropherotypes, organization of nif genes, and the ability to nodulate beans. The colonization capacity of some of the isolates was tested with an unimproved maize cultivar and with 30 maize land races. Increases in plant dry weight upon R. etli inoculation were recorded with some of the land races, and these increases may be related to plant growth promotion effects. Additionally, from within maize grown in monoculture we have also recovered R. etli isolates recognizable by their 16S rRNA gene types, which lack nif genes and are incapable of nodulating bean. These strains are presumed to correspond to the earlier described non-symbiotic R. etli obtained from bean rhizosphere. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Since then the taxonomy of bacteria has been revolutionized several times. At present, 30 phyla belong to the domain “Bacteria”, which includes over 9600 species. Unlike many eukaryotes, bacteria lack complex morphological characters and practically phylogenetically informative fossils. It is partly due to these reasons that bacterial taxonomy is complicated.

Here, the literature on legume-rhizobia symbioses in field soils was reviewed and genotypically characterised rhizobia related to the taxonomy of the legumes from which they were isolated. The Leguminosae was divided into three sub-families, the Caesalpinioideae, Mimosoideae and Papilionoideae. Bradyrhizobium spp. were the exclusive rhizobial symbionts of species in the Caesalpinioideae, but data are limited. Generally, a range of rhizobia genera nodulated legume species across the two Mimosoideae tribes Ingeae and Mimoseae, but Mimosa spp. show specificity towards Burkholderia in central and southern Brazil, Rhizobium/Ensifer in central Mexico and Cupriavidus in southern Uruguay. These specific symbioses are likely to be at least in part related to the relative occurrence of the potential symbionts in soils of the different regions. Generally, Papilionoideae species were promiscuous in relation to rhizobial symbionts, but specificity for rhizobial genus appears to hold at the tribe level for the Fabeae (Rhizobium), the genus level for Cytisus (Bradyrhizobium), Lupinus (Bradyrhizobium) and the New Zealand native Sophora spp. (Mesorhizobium) and species level for Cicer arietinum (Mesorhizobium), Listia bainesii (Methylobacterium) and Listia angolensis (Microvirga).
