Title: SDS PAGE ANALYSIS OF WHOLE CELL PROTEIN AND NUMERICAL TAXONOMY OF Rhizobia OF SOME LEGUMES GROWING IN ARID REGION
Abstract: strains of Rhizobia were isolated from root nodules of Medicago , Melilotus ,and Caragana , and 48 strains were numerically classified in comparison with 22 reference strains of Rhizobia . At the similarity level of 85%, the unknown strains were divided into 3 new groups different from the reference strains.76 strains (including 70 strains used in numerical taxonomy, 6 strains isolated from Caragana in Xinjiang recently ) were analyzed by SDS PAGE of the whole cell protein. At the similarity level of 80%,the known strains were clustered into independent groups;the unknown strains were located in group 4,5,6,7,8,9,10 except that XJ96342 were clustered with group 5,6,7,8, R.galegae at the similarity level of 68%. All strains of group 4 were located in group 1 in the numerical taxonomy; 3 strains of group 6 were located in group 3 in the numerical taxonomy; 8 strains of group 9 were located in group 2 in the numerical taxonomy.These results show that there are some consistencies between the numerical taxonomy and SDS PAGE analysis of the whole cell protein in taxonomy .
