Nodulation status of 15 leguminous species within 14 genera was examined. Of the 15 species only 4 were found non-nodulators. Cassia fistula (L). of Caesalpinioideae and Adenantherct pavonina (L) of Mimosoideae have been reported as nodulators for the first time from Pakistan whereas Bauhinia purpurea (L), Delonix regia (Bojer) Rafin, Peltophorum petrocarpum (DC) Backer ex. K. Heyne and Tamarindus indices L are being reported as non-nodulator. The rhizobia from Cassia fistula L and A. pavonina L were found alkali producing. Nodule colour, shape and frequency, and cross nodulating properties of rhizobial isolates from Cassia fistula L and A. pavonina L. in Vigna radiates were also described.
