Recent progress in our understanding of the biological interactions that occur in the rhizosphere and of the practical requirements for inoculant formulation and delivery should increase the technology’s reliability in the field and facilitate its commercial development. The present work was initiated to characterize the abiotic stress-tolerating strains of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) rhizobium isolated from the nodules of chickpea plants collected from the field. Comparative ecological studies were carried out with respect to the effect of temperature, pH, drought, heavy metals, antibiotics, and utilization of carbon and nitrogen sources. The phylogenetic analysis of chickpea strains were performed by using molecular typing through enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus sequence-based polymerase chain reaction (ERIC-PCR).  Keywords: rhizosphere, Cicer arietinum, temperature, pH, drought Cite this Article Chauhan N, Gupta K.
