Abstract
-
Strain Mol12T, which presented in the form of Gram-negative,
motile, non-spore forming rod-shaped, was isolated from
soil in South Korea and characterized to determine its taxonomic
position. The strain grew at 20–30°C (optimum 30°C)
and pH 7.0–10.0 (optimum pH 8.0) with 1% (w/v) NaCl.
Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences
showed that the strain Mol12T was most closely related to
Ensifer terangae LMG 7834T (96.78%), Rhizobium daejeonense
KCTC 12121T (96.43%), Ensifer adhaerens Casida AT
(96.28%). Chemotaxonomic data showed that the predominant
fatty acids were Summed Feature 8 (C18:1 ω7c and/or
C18:1 ω6c; 53.02%) and C18:1 ω7c 11-methyl (24.01%). Its complex
polar lipid contained major amounts of diphosphatidylglycerol
(DPG), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and Q-10
as the predominant ubiquinone. The DNA G+C content of
strain Mol12T was determined to be 60.9 mol%. Based on
the phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic, and phenotypic data,
strain Mol12T (=KCTC 42816T =JCM 31049T) ought to be
classified as a type strain of a novel species, for which the
name Ensifer collicola sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
-
Adzuki bean (Vigna angularis) is an important legume crop native to China, but its rhizobia have not been well characterized. In the present study, a total of 60 rhizobial strains isolated from eight provinces of China were analyzed with amplified 16S rRNA gene RFLP, IGS-RFLP, and sequencing analyses of 16S rRNA, atpD, recA, and nodC genes. These strains were identified as genomic species within Rhizobium, Sinorhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, and Ochrobactrum. The most abundant groups were Bradyrhizobium species and Sinorhizobium fredii. Diverse nodC genes were found in these strains, which were mainly co-evolved with the housekeeping genes, but a possible lateral transfer of nodC from Sinorhizobium to Rhizobium was found. Analyses of the genomic and symbiotic gene backgrounds showed that adzuki bean shared the same rhizobial gene pool with soybean (legume native to China) and the exotic Vigna species. All of these data demonstrated that nodule formation is the interaction of rhizobia, host plants, and environment characters.
