Abstract
Two slow-growing soybean rhizobial strains (Bradyrhizobium japonicum), OUG 115 and OUG 117, were compared in biochemical and serological experiments. A slight difference was detected in the growth curve in liquid media containing arabinose as a sole carbon substrate, but for the other carbon sources there were no differences between the two strains. Both strains reacted strongly with the corresponding antisera but weakly cross reacted with each other.Keywords
