This report describes some biochemical and genetic characteristics of seven rhizobial isolates that nodulate legume trees Inga uragüensis, Prosopis nigra, Acacia caven, Erythrina crista-galli and Enterolobium contortisiliquum, native to Uruguay. Based on specific growth rates, carbon source utilization and acid production the isolates could be assigned to the fast-growing group of rhizobia. The analysis of plasmid content showed that from seven isolates examined, three contained a single plasmid of approximately 220 Mda, two harboured two plasmids with molecular weight < 220 Mda and no plasmid was detected in the remaining isolates. All the isolates examined showed a distinguishable protein profile using one-dimensional SDS-PAGE. This technique could distinguish one isolate from another. Hybridization studies using R. leguminosarum hup probe did not indicate hup genes in any of the isolates examined.
