is one of wild legumes, which called as Hamaazuki, are distributed at the vicinity of the coast from tropical to sub-tropical regions and have high salt tolerance among terrestrial plants. can grow at 400 mM NaCl condition. Furthermore, the root nodules on have a symbiotic relationship with rhizobia that related to the genus having high stress tolerance (500 mM NaCl, 45 C, pH 10.5). Above both symbiotic partners showed extremely high salt tolerance, however, cannot develop root nodules with at over 80 mM NaCl conditions. To improve symbiotic performance of with under high salt conditions, bacterial cells were irradiated by carbon ion-beam at TIARA. However, so far, we could not obtain promising mutants having good symbiotic performance with Vigna marina under high salt conditions, yet.
