Incompatibility may not be the rule in the Sinorhizobium fredii-soybean interaction

In this work we confirmed that three Sinorhizobium fredii strains--USDA191, SMH12 and HH103--can nodulate and fix nitrogen on 40 soybean cultivars tested. Nitrogen-fixation was as in other nitrogen-fixing symbiosis the result of the bacterial-plant genome interactions. Based on our results, and thos...

Description
Summary:In this work we confirmed that three Sinorhizobium fredii strains--USDA191, SMH12 and HH103--can nodulate and fix nitrogen on 40 soybean cultivars tested. Nitrogen-fixation was as in other nitrogen-fixing symbiosis the result of the bacterial-plant genome interactions. Based on our results, and those of others, we propose that compatibility is most probably the rule for the S. fredii--soybean symbiosis.
