Symbiotic properties of B. diazoefficiens strains 110spc4 and USDA 110 on different legume host plants. No significant difference was found between strains 110spc4 and USDA 110 with respect to nodule number (A), dry weight per nodule (B), or nitrogenase activity normalized to total nodule dry weight (C) on all six tested host plants, following a one way ANOVA with Holm-Šídáks correction (0.05 α). The two soybean (Glycine max) cultivars Williams 82 (n = 9 and 10 for 110spc4 and USDA 110, respectively) and Black jet (n = 10 and 10), mung bean (Vigna radiata; n = 9 and 7), cowpea (Vigna unguiculata, n = 8 and 8), and the crack-entry host Aeschynomene afraspera (n = 10 and 9) were analyzed 21 days post inoculation (dpi) whereas siratro plants (Macroptilium atropurpureum, n = 8 and 10) were analyzed 28 dpi. Error bars represent standard deviation of the mean.
