Abstract: The genetic diversity of Rhizobium is also based on geographic location on the organism which can influence on nodulation capacity of the species, having further effect on other parameters like dry weight and Nitrogen content of the plants. In the present work, some location specific strains of Rhizobium were isolated and were tested to find out their effect on dry matter and nitrogen content of Urid bean (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper plant from the Marathwada region of Maharashtra state. The strain UR5 from Parbhani district seems to be a promising strain in increasing the dry matter and nitrogen content of the plant of Urid bean (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper.
