Abstract: Three Frankia strains (Hr8,Hr16 and Hr32) from Hippophae rhamnoides are tested for inoculation in soils with native Frankia species. Hr16 has a compensational effect with native species. The inoculation efficiency of Frankia is influenced by various factors. Higher efficiency is obtained while Frankia is inoculated in soils within5cm in depth. The strains are cultured for 8 weeks, seedlings for 4 weeks and inoculation amount is 0.05 ml PCV.
