The Rhizobium sp. BR816 nodO Gene Can Function as a Determinant for Nodulation of Leucaena leucocephala, Phaseolus vulgaris, and Trifolium repens by a Diversity of Rhizobium spp.

The Rhizobium sp. BR816 nodO Gene Can Function as a Determinant for Nodulation of Leucaena leucocephala, Phaseolus vulgaris, and Trifolium repens by a Diversity of Rhizobium spp.

Introduction of the subcloned nodO gene of Rhizobium sp. BR816 into R. meliloti 1021, R. leguminosarum bv. trifolii ANU843, and Azorhizobium caulinodans ORS571 significantly stimulated nodulation and infection of Leucaena leucocephala by these transconjugants. The BR816 nodO gene was also shown to s...
