[Chemotaxis of Bradyrhizobium japonicum to various organic compounds].
The investigation of the chemotactic response of Bradyrhizobium japonicum to amino acids, carbohydrates, multiatomic alcohols, organic acids, and soybean extracts showed that the extracts of some soybean varieties (Chernoburaya and Beskluben'kovaya) contain repellents. This indicates that the soybeans of host plants contain effectors that may play a role at the early stages of their interaction with nodule bacteria.
