The outer core oligosaccharide (OS) was isolated from the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii strain 24 after Smith degradation and then studied by sugar and methylation analyses along with NMR and mass spectrometry methods. Negative-ion electrospray (ESI-MS) mass spectr

Cicer canariense is a threatened endemic legume from the Canary Islands where it can be nodulated by mesorhizobial strains from the symbiovar ciceri, which is the common worldwide endosymbiont of Cicer arietinum linked to the genus Mesorhizobium. However, when C. canariense was cultivated in a soil

In spite of potentially being an important source of rhizobial diversity and a key determinant of common bean productivity, there is a paucity of data on Rhizobium genetic variation and species composition in the important bean producing area of Chile and only one species has been documented (Rhizob
