Abstract
In the last few years we have directed our research efforts towards the understanding of the nature of Rhizobium phaseoli and its genome, in particular those features that could be relevant for its symbiotic properties. At the present time we are addresing some questions that we consider relevant to obtain an overall view of the organization of the Rhizobium genome that might contribute to better possibilities of manipulation. In the first part of this paper, we will comment on such questions and summarize results obtained. In the second part we will discuss some perspectives.
