Symbiotic nitrogen fixation was examined in 36 plant genotype-bacterial strain combinations produced by growing six genotypes of Pisum sativum L. and six strains of Rhizobium leguminosarum in all combinations. Both genotypes and strains had effects not only on nitrogen fixation but also on characters associated with plant growth and photosynthesis. However, relationships between characters differed markedly depending on whether genotype or strain means were used to calculate correlation coefficients. Genotype × strain (G × S) interactions also affected the expression of several of the characters. Using nitrogen fixation as an example, statistical methods analogous to those developed for the analysis of genotype × environment interactions were used to study this interaction. From this analysis it was apparent that the G × S variability was mainly caused by differences in the magnitude of the response of plant genotypes or bacterial strains to changes in the complementary symbiont with little difference in the stability of this response. An examination of different indicators of performance, response, and stability of that response, suggests that both plant genotypes and bacterial strains could be selected for relatively uniform fixation over a range of symbiotic partners, or that specific combinations could be selected for maximum symbiotic effectiveness.Key words: Genotype × strain, N2 fixation, photosynthesis, respiration, growth

Rhizobacteria (PGPR) that promote the plant growth are essential component of sustainable agriculture. Pea (Pisum sativum L.) root nodule Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae ten strains were cultured at two different temperatures (28°C and 45°C). Out of eight strains screened the three N25, N30 and N40 were temperature tolerant while only one strain (N40) showed tolerance to pH11. The growth of Rhizobium strain N40 at 45 °C was 96.8 percent as compared to the growth of the at 28°C. The temperature tolerant strain N40 produced maximum IAA and solubilized insoluble tri calcium phosphate compared to other strains and thus can be used microbial inoculant in biofertilizer technology.

Several genes involved in development of symbiosis between pea and rhizobia haven’t yet been characterized in detail. Here, the first results of genetic analysis of pea mutants in the symbiotic genes Sym23 and Sym24 are presented.

Direct seeding into standing stubble and crop diversification are two practices that are becoming widely adopted in western Canada. This study was conducted to determine: i) the influence of zero and conventional tillage on N-fixation in lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) and pea (Pisum sativum L.), and ii) the effect of cropping history on N-fixation in lentil. Data were obtained from a crop rotation experiment being conducted on a silty clay soil in east-central Saskatchewan, which included six cereal-oilseed-cereal-pulse rotations, each managed using zero and conventional tillage practices. The finding showed that N-fixation was 10% higher by lentil and 31% higher by pea when grown using zero tillage as compared to conventional tillage practices. On average, lentil grown in highly diversified crop rotations fixed 12% more nitrogen than when grown in less diversified crop rotations. Key words: Nitrogen fixation, lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus), pea (Pisum sativum L.), zero tillage, conventional tillage
