Abstract

A method of estimating the most probable number of chickpea Rhizobium in a soil sample from the pattern of nodulation of plants inoculated with a series of dilutions of the sample is described. The number is only an estimate because it is based on the probability than a single Rhizobium will produce a nodule.
