Aluminium being one of the most abundant elements is very toxic for plants causing inhibition of nutrient uptake and productivity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of microbial consortium consisting of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF), rhizobia and PGPR for counteracting negative effects of Al toxicity on four pea genotypes differing in Al tolerance. Pea plants were grown in acid soil supplemented with AlCl (pH = 4.

- A collection of rhizobial strains was isolated from root nodules of specific legume species in Kamchatka Peninsula, revealing significant genetic diversity among the strains.
- Only the strains from one genus were able to form nitrogen-fixing nodules on plants, with two notable strains exhibiting specific secretion system genes that may affect their ability to interact with different host plants.
- The study suggests that variations in nodule types observed could be due to different nodulation strategies, highlighting the potential for these rhizobial strains to improve plant-microbe interactions and broaden host range through further research.*
