Abstract

The effect of two different initial culture pHs on growth of six strains of rhizobia (TAL 102, was first studied by using shake flask experiment. Only Bradyrhizobium TAL 102 grew better at pH4.5 compared to 6.5 and this strain was chosen as an acid-tolerant rhizobia . This result is in agreement with the result of the experiment using the fermenter in which the culture pH was controlled at a constant value of 4.5 and 6.5 throughout the cultivation.However parameters such as maximum cell concentration attained (Xm) differed significantly.
