Abstract
Using Tn5 mutagenesis of lysogenic Sinorhizobium meliloti strain L5–30 φL54 three neomycinresistant transconjugants differing in phageresistance profiles were isolated Two of them increased the dry weight of plants and were capable of establishing root nodules whereas the third one was ineffective The bacteriumphage interaction did not have observable consequences in the Medicago sativa S meliloti symbiosis because it did not affect the number of nodules on M sativa or plant dry weight
