- Observation All host plant–rhizobial isolate combinations formed nodules.
- Observation Symbiotic effectiveness varied greatly among combinations.
- Observation Twenty-one isolates formed at least one highly effective symbiotic combination.
- Observation The two best isolates each formed four highly effective combinations.
- Observation The 25 isolates fell into at least 10 groups by symbiotic behaviour.
- Observation Strain specificity in nitrogen-fixation effectiveness occurred in all species except T. repens.
- Observation Bacterial associations with three named Trifolium species were highly specific.
- Observation T. repens performed poorly in symbiosis.
- Observation T. echinatum, T. alexandrinum, and T. spurnosum had similar symbiotic response patterns.
- Observation T. pauciflorurn, T. glomeratum, and T. brachycalycinum had similar symbiotic response patterns.
- Observation Host groupings were less well defined than rhizobial isolate groupings.
- Association Clover tended to be nodulated by more effective strains in heterogeneous soil populations.
- Association Mean rhizobial effectiveness from a species was negatively correlated with that species’ mean response to all isolates.
