  • Title: [Analysis on 16S rDNA sequence of rhizobia isolated from Kummerowla sp].
    Author: Wei G, Zhu M, Chen W.
    Journal: Wei Sheng Wu Xue Bao; 2001 Feb; 41(1):113-6. PubMed ID: 12549200.
    Abstract:
    Based on the previous studies on numerical taxonomy, SDS-PAGE of whole-cell protein and DNA hybridization, the rhizobial strains isolated from Kummerowia sp. in semi-arid area of North-west constituted a new subgroup, the 16S rDNA sequence of representative strain SH714 were tested. The unrooted phylogenetic tree was produced. In this tree, the strain SH714 with Sinorhizobium xinjiangensis, S. fredii, S. meliloti, S. medicae, S. saheli and S. teranga constituted a branch of Sinorhizobium. Within this branch, the similarity valuse of 16S rDNA sequence between strain SH714 and S. xinjiangesis, S. fredii, S. meliloti, S. medicae, S. saheli and S. teranga were 97.4%, 97.5%, 96.8%, 96.7%, 97.2% and 95.6% respectively, the values were more than 95%, this indicated that these known species should belong to the same genus. The values of DNA homology between type strains of these species were less than 70%. Thus, the strain SH714 represented a new rhizobial species, and there were some diversity between SH714 and known rhizobial species in phenotypic feature and composition of protein.
