🧍 Rhizobium tropici Martínez-Romero et al. 1991, was the first description of a rhizobial species to include 16S rRNA gene-sequence analysis. At that time, in spite of evidence that supported the proposal of two species from the nodule isolates analyzed, such as differences in 16S rRNA gene sequences and low DNA-DNA hybridization values, only one novel species was accepted. However, two types, A and B, were recognized to account for these differences. In 2012, Ribeiro et al. propose to reclassify type A strains in a new species, Rhizobium leucaenae Ribeiro et al. 2012.Publication:
