Bacterial Endophytes from Legumes Native to Arid Environments Are Promising Tools to Improve <i>Mesorhizobium</i>–Chickpea Symbiosis under Salinity

Symbiotic nitrogen fixation is a major contributor of N in agricultural ecosystems, but the establishment of legume–rhizobium symbiosis is highly affected by soil salinity. Our interest is focused on the use of non-rhizobial endophytes to assist the symbiosis between chickpea and its microsymbiont u...
