SUMMARY

Fifteen rhizobia strains were tested for efficiency on Leucaena leucocephala, in nitrogen free nutrient solution. All of them, mostly isolated from Mimosa sp., poorly nodulated Leucaena. Only two, isolated from this legume effectively fixed nitrogen. The strain NGR-8 (= SMS-436) was the most effective and the strain SMS-448 gave also good nodulation but was less effective than the former. Strain CB 948 (= SMS-140) induced abundant but ineffective nodulation.
