Abstract
The soil, especially the agricultural one, contains millions of microorganisms such as fungi, algae, bacteria, and protozoa. These microorganisms have an essential role in maintaining the fertility of the soil and provide the nutritional supplements to the plants, such as the root-nodulating bacteria, or rhizobia, and it's a Gram-negative bacteria that has a symbiotic relationship with leguminous plants, and like any other living organisms, they must be able to perform a set of chemical reactions to continue to survive, grow, and multiply. These interactions are carried out by enzymes in subsequent reactions known as nutritional metabolism. Reference strain Ensifer meliloti and the rhizobial isolates (RBSU4, RBSU6, RBSU7, RBSU10, RBSU11, RBSU13, and RBSU28). This study aimed to know the ability of these isolates to produce a group of enzymes and use the production of its reactions in its nutritional metabolism. A series of enzymatic tests were included: Catalase, Oxidase, Tryptophanase, Amylase, Urease, Lactase, Gelatinase, Caseinase, and Phosphatase. The result of this study showed the difference between isolations in using the target enzymes for this study. All the isolates, including the reference strain, were positive to catalase, oxidase, and urease enzymes and differentiated with the production of other enzymes, while the reference strains and the two RBSU11 and RBSU13 isolates were the most distinguished isolates, as they were able to produce many enzymes, while the RBSU6 and RBSU10 isolates were the lowest in the production of enzymes. So the reference strains and the two RBSU11 and RBSU13 isolates can be used as a vaccine for leguminous plants, especially in dry and semi-dry areas with poor food resources.
