Within the rhizosphere, bacteria have access to carbon and nitrogen sources originating from the plant. In response, rhizobia themselves secrete molecules (Nod factors) that signal to the plant the presence of suitable symbiotic partners. The rhizobia are then able to enter the root in the region of emerging root hairs. Finally, the bacteria are wrapped by a plant-derived membrane and enter the cytosol of plant cells. (DW Ehrhardt, et al 1992) . The bacteria are now referred to as bacteroids and are able to fix molecular nitrogen, which is released into the plant cells. We are isolate new effective strains from nodule plants Onobrycis tr., grow in the Arid zones Central Asia. For the characterize and identify rhizobial strains and to study the diversity of indigenous Rhizobium strains we are used the PCR. PCR can be performed rapidly with strains, species or genus specific primers that generate fingerprint characteristics of each strain. DNA primers corresponding to repetitive sequences that present in multiple copies of the genomes of most Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria can be used to fingerprint the genomes of rhizobial strains. Three families of repetitive sequences have been identified, including (REP), (ERIC) and BOX element. The REP-PCR genomic fingerprinting protocols have been successfully used in a wide variety of Eubacteria for typing strains and studying their diversity. We have used this highly discriminative and reproducible technique to study the genetic diversity of rhizobial strains.

and N represents over 60% of this cost. The aim of this work was to evaluate the recovery of N by wheat grown<br />

after Lupinus angustifolius, L. luteus, Pisum sativum or two mixtures of annual legumes. As a control we used a<br />

oat-wheat rotation without N fertilization. The study was conducted in two contrasting Mediterranean<br />
