ABSTRACT

En Venezuela, el frijol representa una alternativa a la proteína animal, debido a su alto consumo y valor nutritivo, por ello se ha estimulado la implementación de programas para reactivar la economía de los pequeños y medianos productores, a fin de incrementar su producción y así tener mayor disponibilidad de proteína de alta calidad a bajo costo; de manera que, los estudios encaminados a mejorar su cultivo, son acertados. Se evaluó la efectividad de cepas rizobianas de crecimiento lento (cl) y rápido (cr) en frijol (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) cultivar TC9-6 en varios regímenes de fósforo (0, 20, 40 y 80 kgP2O5 ha-1), con un diseño experimental de bloques al azar con arreglo factorial. Las plantas se cultivaron en 4 kg de suelo de sabana 45 días y las cepas en caldo de levadura y manitol: 5 (cr: JV91) y 10 (cl: JV94) días. La inoculación (2 ml cada vez) fue aplicada a la siembra y 6 días más tarde. La utilización de fósforo (40-80 kgP2O5 ha-1) incrementó la nodulación (número, peso seco total e individual de nódulos) y favoreció la aparición de nódulos rojos; así mismo, acrecentó el peso de la materia seca, la altura, el número de hojas y la concentración de nitrógeno del vástago. Los valores fueron similares con ambos tipos de cepas (efectividad similar) y para las dos concentraciones (40-80 kgP2O5 ha-1), con las menores estimaciones para 0 y 20 kgP2O5 ha-1. De acuerdo con los resultados las concentraciones de 40 y 80 kgP2O5 ha-1 fueron las más favorables para el crecimiento y la nodulación de frijol.


In Venezuela, cowpea is an alternative to animal protein due to its high consumption and nutritious value, so it has stimulated the implementation of programs to reactivate the small and medium producers economy, in order to increase its production and to have major high quality protein availability at low cost; so that, the studies carry on to improve its cultivation, are well-aimed. The effectiveness of slow (sg) and fast (fg) growing rhizobial strains was evaluated in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) cultivar TC9-6 at various phosphorus regimes (0, 20, 40 and 80 kgP2O5 ha-1): randomized block design with factorial arrangement. Plants were cultivated in 4 kg savannah soil: 45 days, and the strains in yeast and mannitol broth: 5 (fg: JV91) and 10 (sg: JV94) days. The inoculation (2 ml each time) was applied at sowing time and 6 days later. Phosphorus utilization (40-80 kgP2O5 ha-1) increased nodulation (nodule number, total and individual dry weight) and favoured nodule red colour appearance; also, incremented shoot dry matter weight, height, leaves number and nitrogen concentration. Values were similar with both strain types (similar effectiveness) and to the two doses (40-80 kgP2O5 ha-1), with lower estimations to 0 and 20 kgP2O5 ha-1. Accordingly with the results, the doses of 40 and 80 kgP2O5 ha-1 were the most favourable to cowpea growth and nodulation.

ABSTRACT

Three wild type strains of Rhizobium fredii, USDA 191, USDA 257 and HH 303, do not synthesize in vivo or in vitro beta(1-3), beta(1-6) cyclic glucans, all strains form in vitro and in vivo cyclic beta(1-2) glucans. Approximately 80% of the recovered R. fredii cellular cyclic beta(1-2) glucans were anionic and the substituent was identified as phosphoglycerol. Inner membranes prepared from these R. fredii strains have a beta(1-2) glucan-intermediate-protein with apparent molecular mass undistinguishable from Agrobacterium tumefaciens beta(1-2) glucan intermediate protein. Studies of the degree of polymerization of the oligosaccharides recovered from the protein-intermediate after short pulse incubations with UDP-14C-glucose suggested that the rate limiting step in the biosynthesis of cyclic glucan is cyclization. Kinetic studies revealed that the K(m) for UDP-glucose was 0.33 mM. No difference was detected between the K(m) for initiation/elongation and cyclization reactions. Nodulation studies of a ndvB R. fredii mutant with Mc Call and Peking soybean cultivars, revealed that beta(1-2) glucans do not seem to be required for normal nodule invasion of these soybean cultivars.
