Abstract:

As one of the origin of soybean,Shanxi is rich in rhizobia resources. In order to further excavate soybean rhizobia resources in Shanxi province and screen the rhizobia of having good symbiotic nitrogen fixation effect with the local main soybean varieties. In this experiment,root nodules of different soybean varieties were collected in Guangling of Datong,Qingxu of Taiyuan and Taigu of Jinzhong. After multiple streaking,the colony morphology,Congo red staining,BTB staining phenotype identification and 16S rDNA,nodA,nifH genotype identification of the isolated and purified single colonies were performed. BOX-PCR was used for electrophoresis detection of all rhizobia. The strains with completely consistent bands were excluded and the bacteria with inconsistent bands were clustered and analyzed in Bionumerics @ 7.5 software. Then the representative strains were selected and inoculated into two soybean materials Jinda 88 and Kefeng 1 to screen strains with good matching. A total of 203 strains were isolated,from 187 strains of them the nodA and nifH were amplified. While 172 fast-growing strains belonged to Sinorhizobium fredii and slowly-growing 15 strains belonged to Bradyrhizobium diazoefficiens and Bradyrhizobium daqingense,respectively. The 85 rhizobia strains with inconsistent bands were divided into 4 groups by BOX-PCR,which were divided into 16 subgroups with 70% as the limit. Rhizobium GL11 and GL43 were selected in better match with Jinda 88. Compared with USDA110 inoculation,the shoot dry weight increased by 38.5% and 30.1%,respectively;the root dry weight increased by 22.2% and 27.8%,respectively;the fresh weight of nodules increased by 24.3% and 41.5%,respectively;the dry weight of nodules increased by 36.6% and 31.0%,respectively. Rhizobium TG37 was selected as a good match with Kefeng 1 and its plant height,shoot dry weight,dry root weight,fresh nodule weight,dry nodule weight and number of nodules increased by 8.1%,15.0%,28.6%,27.3%,44.3% and 60.6%,respectively,compared with USDA110 inoculation. Shanxi province has rich resources of rhizobia. S. fredii is the dominant species. In addition,two types of slow-growing rhizobia B. diazoefficiens and B. daqingense were isolated,which enriches the rhizobia resources. The screening of rhizobia with good symbiosis and matching lays a material and theoretical basis for soybean production practice.
