| Abstract | Forty-five Rhizobium strains nodulating sulla (Hedysarum coronarium L.), isolated from plants grown in different sites in Menorca Island and southern Spain, were examined for plasmid content and the location and organization of nif (nitrogen fixation) and nod (nodulation) sequences. A great diversity in both number and size of the plasmids was observed in this native population of strains, which could be distributed among 19 different groups according to their plasmid profiles. No correlation was found between plasmid profile and geographical origin of the strains. In each strain a single plasmid ranging from 187 to 349 megadaltons hybridized to Rhizobium meliloti nifHD and nodD DNA, and in three strains the spontaneous loss of this plasmid resulted in the loss of the nodulation capacity. In addition to the symbiotic plasmid, 18 different cryptic plasmids were identified. A characteristic cryptic plasmid of >1,000 megadaltons was present in all strains. Total DNA hybridization experiments, with nifHD and portions of nodC and nodD genes (coding for common nodulation functions) from R. meliloti as probes, demonstrated that both the sequence and organization of nif and common nod genes were highly conserved within rhizobia nodulating sulla. Evidence for reiteration of nodD sequences and for linkage of nodC to at least one copy of nodD was obtained for all the strains examined. From these results we conclude that Rhizobium strains nodulating sulla are a homogeneous group of symbiotic bacteria that are closely related to the classical fast-growing group of rhizobia. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
