Sample

Growth

Contra indications

S 1

No growth was observed

Rhizobia do not grow or grow poorly on glucose peptone agar and do not alter the pH of the media

S 2

No growth was observed

Rhizobia do not grow or grow poorly on glucose peptone agar and do not alter the pH of the media

S 3

Poor growth was observed with no alteration of pH of the media

Rhizobia do not grow or grow poorly on glucose peptone agar and do not alter the pH of the media but contaminants like Agrobacteria grow massively and change the pH of the media distinctly.

S 4

Very poor growth was observed with no alteration of pH of the media

Rhizobia do not grow or grow poorly on glucose peptone agar and do not alter the pH of the media but contaminants like Agrobacteria grow massively and change the pH of the media distinctly.

S 5

No growth was observed

Rhizobia do not grow or grow poorly on glucose peptone agar and do not alter the pH of the media

S 6

Very poor growth was observed with no alteration of pH of the media
