Abstract
The plants nodulated by Frankia strains are known as actinorhizal plants. Non-legume nitrogen-fixing shrubs are frequently among the first colonizers on disturbed forest and range sites especially when nitrogen availability is one of the principal limiting factors. Nodulation of these species is initiated through root infection by Frankia species. Nodule formation, abundance, and functionality on individual plants is strongly influenced by soil moisture, soil nutrient balance, and age and health of the individual shrub, thus the character of nitrogen-fixation as an ecological process across a shrub population, and through time, may be tremendously varied. We determined the morphological and Biochemical characteristics on three different Frankia isolates namely SI, SII and SIII were isolated from nodules of of Casuarina plants were collected from three different sites of Nagappattinam districts, Tamilnadu.
