Description

Two bdellovibrio bacteriovirus infecting rhizobia of leguminous forage were isolated from Sichuan-Tibet plateau grassland. The culture characteristics, host range and other biological properties of two bdellovibrio bacterioviruses were researched. Research indicated that the two bdellovibrio bacterioviruses had a wide host range and a strong lyslng ability with Rhlwbium melilotl, R. trlfolll and R, astragalll. 8dellovibrio bacterioviruses affected nodu lation of leguminous forages in grassland, and are one of the main biological factors that lower the yield of leguminous forages.
