N2  - Transposon Tn5 mutants of two Cicer-Rhizobium strains, G36-84 and F-75 tolerant to nitrate under symbiotic condition, have been developed. Suicide vector pGS9 was used as a source of Tn5 for insertion mutagenesis of Rhizobium. The mutants so developed were screened in the presence of nitrate under symbiotic condition for nodule formation (Nod) and N2-fixation (Fix) ability. We could get some mutants, which were Nod+ Fix+ at 1mM and 2 mM nitrate, from the parental strains which were Nod- at 1 mM nitrate. © 1993 Springer-Verlag.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
