Reports on the natural and laboratory infection of cereals by rhizobium provided the impetus to embark on research using African landraces of sorghum and millet to study their interaction with rhizobia. Seven strains of root-nodule bacteria (namely Rhizobium GHR2, Bradyrhizobium japonicum Tal 110, Sinorhizobium meliloti strain 1, Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viceae Cn6, R. leguminosarum bv. viceae strain 30, Rhizobium NGR234 and Azorhizobium caulinodans ORSS71, hereafter referred to as ""rhizobia"") that fix N2, were used to study rhizobial effects on sorghum and millet seedlings grown aseptically in Leonard jars with Yz strength Hoagland nutrient solution containing 1 mM KN03. 2014-09-11T06:47:59Z 2014-09-11T06:47:59Z 2004 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/7420 eng application/pdf Department of Molecular and Cell Biology Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
