Seedlings of 2 bambara groundnut var. Ada and Kara, were inoculated with culture suspensions of one of the 6 elite (NifTAL) or 13 West African wild strains of rhizobia. All the NifTAL strains except TAL651 significantly increased shoot weight and/or increased total nitrogen. The variety Ada responded positively to inoculation with TMUN and TBAM. TMUN, TBAM, TAL1380, TAL437, TAL169, TAL642 and TAL309 are effective inoculants for bambara groundnuts
