Ten isolates of Rhizobium leguminosarum from different genotypes of Vicia faba L. were tested on two genotypes of V. faba. Three strains were gamma irradiated to produce mutants which were highly variable genetically. These mutants were studied for several traits. The number of nodules per plant was shown to be the best selection criterion for rhizobial isolates with better nitrogen fixation
