Furthermore, we found that the root nodules on Vigna marina have a symbiotic relationship with rhizobia that related to the genus Sinorhizobium having high stress tolerance (500 mM NaCl, 45 ºC, pH 10.5). In this study, to improve symbiotic performance of Vigna marina with Sinorhizobium under high salt conditions, we attempted to enhanced salt tolerant ability using ion beam mutation breeding. Consequently, the mutation breeding method of Sinorhizobium by irradiation ion beams was successfully to create salt-tolerant mutants enhancing activities of root nodulation and nitrogen fixation under salinity stress.}, title = {Screening of Root Nodule Bacteria for Salinity Tolerance Using Ion Beams Irradiation}, year = {2019} }
