Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation ERIC fingerprinting clustered chickpea root nodule bacteria and standard strains into four major clusters by phylogenetic relationship.
- Observation 65 per cent of chickpea root nodule bacteria strains were closely related to Mesorhizobium ciceri and Mesorhizobium loti.
- Observation The remaining 40 per cent of chickpea root nodule bacteria strains showed similarity to Rhizobium leguminosarum (MTCC 99) and Agrobacterium tumefaciens (MTCC 431).
- Observation Strain MTCC 120 (Bradyrhizobium japonicum) produced fewer ERIC amplicons than the other strains.
- Observation ERIC primers generated a total of 320 amplicons across the chickpea root nodule bacteria and standard strains.
- Method / resource ERIC-PCR fingerprinting could be a powerful tool for depicting genetic diversity among chickpea root nodule bacteria strains and standard strains.
