Abstract
A field isolate of R. japonicum has recently been isolated that may help to answer the question of whether or not rhizobia need to attach to the host root surface in some particular way in order to infect and nodulate. This field isolate, designated 1007, was obtained from a large nodule in the crown region of a soybean plant from a local field (S.J. Vesper, T.V. Bhuvaneswari, W.D. Bauer, in preparation).
