Frankia strains isolated from Saudi Arabia, reported for the first time, were identified based on the morphological and molecular tools compared to those isolated from Egypt. All strains displayed typical morphological characterization of Frankia strains represented by branched hyphae, production of vesicles and sporangia. The phylogenetic analysis and relationships among Frankia strains were investigated...
Salinity is a serious threat to agriculture in arid and semi-arid regions including Egypt. There is currently a need to select highly salt-tolerant plants to improve recycling of agricultural drainage waters. Due to the importance of Casuarina in soil reclamation and rehabilitation, our study was carried out to evaluate the survival and growth of inoculated Casuarina glauca in hydroponic N-free medium...
Actinorhizal plants are able to overcome saline soils and reclaim land. Frankia sp strain CcI6 was isolated from nodules of Casuarina cunninghamiana found in Egypt. Phylogenetic analysis of Frankia sp. strain CcI6 revealed that the strain is closely related to Frankia sp. strain CcI3. The strain displays an elevated level of NaCl tolerance. Vesicle production and nitrogenase activity were also influenced...
