Abstract
SUMMARYNitrosoguanidine-induced acid-tolerant mutants S1 and M1 of Lens esculenta Rhizobium leguminosarum were used for nodulation and symbiotic N2-fixation in acid soils having different pH and associated factors of acidity. The range of soil pH and associated acidity factors in which nodulation and N2-fixation responded varied, depending on mutant strains. However, strain M1 was more responsive and effective than S1. Antagonistic effect of Mn to Fe was found when the active Fe2+ and total Mn were determined in fresh nodules.
