Abstract
AIMS: Genista saharae, indigenous of Sahara, is a spontaneous shrub that plays an important ecological role for the preservation and fertility of poor and eroded soils. This legume has not been examined for its root nodule bacteria. The taxonomic diversity of bacteria from root nodules of G. saharae growing in the infra-arid region of Tunisia was investigated. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 28 bacterial strains isolated from root nodules of G. saharae grown in Tunisian soil were characterized using a polyphasic approach including phenotypic characteristics, PCR-RFLP of 16S rDNA and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. It was found that new isolates are diverse and affiliated to Ensifer (75%), Rhizobium (10%) and Phyllobacterium (15%). The Phyllobacterium isolates lacked the capacity for nodule formation on this plant. CONCLUSIONS: Genista saharae formed nodules with diverse rhizobia in Tunisian soils. Furthermore, our results support the presence of non-nodulating commensal strains (Phyllobacterium) in legumes nodule. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This study is the first report on the characterization of G. saharae microsymbionts in Tunisia.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
