Abstract
In the conducted studies, the moorphological and physiological properties of nodule bacteria of lupine were studied. Lupine plants were grown under the conditions of a microfield experiment on a typical medium loamy urban soil. In the study, a pure culture of Bradyrhizobium lupini was isolated. Then, the morphological properties of nodule bacteria cells and the chemical composition of cell membranes of nodule bacteria were determined. The acid resistance and physiological properties of lupine nodule bacteria were also determined, as well as the ratio of Bradyrhizobium lupini to antibiotics. All studies were carried out according to generally accepted methods. The results of the research showed that during the cultivation of lupine on a typical urban soil, nodule bacteria Bradyrhizobium lupini were isolated, which can be characterized as gram-negative, non-spore-forming rods that do not exhibit amylolytic activity. It was revealed that the rhizobia of nodule bacteria are not acid-resistant. Nodule bacteria turned out to be the least resistant to polymyxin, then to levomycetin, and Bradyrhizobium lupini showed the greatest resistance to tetracycline.
