Symbiotic properties of Vigna radiata KPS1 inoculated with B. elkanii USDA61 and its mutant derivatives. Cytological analysis of the nodules induced by strains USDA61, BErhcJ, BEinnB, BEnopP2, BEinnBnopP2, BEinnBnopP2::nopP2 and BEinnBnopP2::EV (empty vector) observed via stereomicroscopy (roots of KPS1; scale bars: 1 cm), nodule number, fresh nodule weight and total plant dry weight of KPS1 plants. The data shown are the means of 10 plant inoculation assays at 30 dpi. The data shown are box and whisker plots. Means followed by different letters are significantly different at the 5% level, “**” P < 0.05 according to Student’s t test.
