Exopolysaccharide Characterization of Rhizobium favelukesii LPU83 and Its Role in the Symbiosis With Alfalfa

Exopolysaccharide Characterization of Rhizobium favelukesii LPU83 and Its Role in the Symbiosis With Alfalfa

One of the greatest inputs of available nitrogen into the biosphere occurs through the biological N2-fixation to ammonium as result of the symbiosis between rhizobia and leguminous plants. These interactions allow increased crop yields on nitrogen-poor soils. Exopolysaccharides (EPS) are key compone...
