Abstract
From eight isolates of Bradyrhizobium sp. (Lup < /em>inus) (were selected from many isolates on the basis of their N2-fixation efficient), four different groups were obtained and identified according to their sensitivity and resistance to antibiotics (lAR). On the basis of serological analysis, the representative isolates of IAR groups showed compatibility, indicating the possible grouping of indigenous isolates of lupin rhizobia into specific groups based on serological and IAR profiles of the isolates. Variations among indigenous rhizobial populations of the isolates from lupin was found, and showed that there is genetic potential to improve strain performance within rhizobial population. In order to evaluate the symbiotic performance of selected strains, a field experiment was conducted in two locations under different levels of N- fertilizer. The results showed that the Rhizobium inoculation and N-fertilizer had low effect in increasing the biomass and grain yield of white lupin cultivar. No interaction was observed between inoculation and N-fertilizer levels in all studied parameters. The biomass and seed yield tended to be greater with Rhizobium inoculation than with N-fertilizer. The results also indicated the potential for improvement of N2-fixation by lupin through the application of efficient rhizobia strains such as ARC 401 and ARC 408.
