Microvirga lupini sp. nov., Microvirga lotononidis sp. nov. and Microvirga zambiensis sp. nov. are alphaproteobacterial root-nodule bacteria that specifically nodulate and fix nitrogen with geographically and taxonomically separate legume hosts

TL;DR: Three novel species of Microvirga are proposed on the basis of genotypic, phenotypic and DNA relatedness data, and concatenated sequences show that the sequences of Lut6(T), WSM3557(T) and WSM3693 (T) were most closely related to that of Rhizobium etli CFN42(T).
Journal ArticleDOI
Coexistence of Burkholderia, Cupriavidus, and Rhizobium sp. Nodule Bacteria on two Mimosa spp. in Costa Rica
TL;DR: Inoculation tests indicated that both Cupriavidus and Burkholderia spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutualism as a constraint on invasion success for legumes and rhizobia
TL;DR: Overall, the results indicate that legumes may often fail at colonization attempts within habitats where mutualist partners are scarce, and predictive insights about invasiveness may emerge from comparative research on key traits identified by the model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathogens and sex in plants
TL;DR: Modification of traditional models for pathogen-mediated evolution of sex showed that for conditions close to the empirical pattern of genotypic specificity, sex is almost never favoured, casting doubt on current theories arguing that pathogens are the primary selective agent responsible for sexual reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth of an invasive legume is symbiont limited in newly occupied habitats
TL;DR: In this paper, the root nodule formation was positively correlated with proximity to plants of the native legume Desmodium canadense, but not related to distance from another legume species, Apios americana.
