Characterization of drought stress-mitigating Rhizobium from faba bean (Vicia faba L.) in the Chinese Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Rhizobium-driven symbiotic nitrogen-fixation in legumes not only benefits the growth but also enhances the stress tolerance of plants. Isolating and characterizing efficient, drought-tolerant rhizobia is a central goal for improving crop yields in arid regions. Here, we phylogenetically and biochemi...
