Introduction    

Over 500 indigenous legume species known in Ethiopia, 48 of which are endemic Most previous studies focus on agronomy/agroforestry aspects of legumes Less attention given to the associated microsymbionts Could the diversity in legumes be accompanied by a corrosponding diversity in microsymbionts?

Bradyrhizobium =3

Phylogram based on partial16S rDNA sequence(414bp) comparison showed 20/30 of the rhizobiales were related to Rhizobium spp. 7 to Agrobacterium and 3 to Bradyrhizobium. (Isolates from 4 woody and 3 crop legumes) 03.07.09

Conclusion and Recommendations • Several non-rhizobial genera may coexist with rhizobia in the root nodules • This compromise efficiency of recovery methods for rhizobia • More sampling and better recovery methods needed • The role of the non-rhizobia in plant growth modulation should be assessed • Characterize the rhizobia for nodulation, physiological and biochemical features • Assess the rhizobia further with regard to symbiotic and house keeping genes to get better overview of phylogeny
