Conclusions

A high level of dispersion of soybean bradyrhizobia was verified in Brazil. It is possible that indigenous strains are also able to nodulate soybean, but they represented just a very small percentage of the population trapped with modern and non-bred soybean genotypes. Serological reaction, protein, lipopolysaccharide and DNA profiles can be modified as a result of adaptation of the strains to different soils.
