Other strains like PP 1008, PH 8866, PH9038 and PP309 were able to grow under a wide range of temperatures up to 42°C. A thermotolerant variant of strain PP2015-1 was able grow up to 44°C, although the optimum temperature remained the same as that of the parent strain. No correlation could be observed between thermotolerance of a strain and its efficiency with the pigeonpea host grown in the range of 35 to 42°C. date: 1999 date_type: published publication: Indian Journal of Plant Physiology volume: 4 number: 1 publisher: Indian Society for Plant Physiology pagerange: 6-9 refereed: TRUE issn: 0019-5502 related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?hl=en&q=allintitle%3A+%22Temperature+tolerance+and+effectiveness+of+Rhizobium+strains+infecting+pigeonpea+%28Cajanus+cajan+L.%29+host%22&btnG=Search&as_sdt=0%2C5&as_ylo=&as_vis=0 related_url_type: author citation: Gopalakrishnan, S and Dudeja, S S (1999) Temperature tolerance and effectiveness of Rhizobium strains infecting pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L.) host.
