A new taxonomic marker of nodule bacteria of the Rhizobium genus and its evolution

Description
Summary:A new taxonomic marker (the hin -region) for study of the diversity of Rhizobium bacteria at the species-groups of strains level was proposed. Groups of Rhizobium strains were isolated with its use that could not be detected by other methods that correlated with the evolutionary proximity of bacteria. This approach to the creation of marker systems allows one to effectively describe the intra- and inter-species genetic diversity of nodule bacteria and to provide an assessment of the prospects of their use in agricultural practices. The proposed marker system was used to describe Rhizobium genus bacterial samples that were isolated in different ecological and geographical regions of Ukraine.
