Rhizobium mediterraneum[3]

Mesorhizobium mediterraneum is a bacterium from the genus Mesorhizobium, which was isolated from root nodule of the Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) in Spain.[4][5] The species Rhizobium mediterraneum was subsequently transferred to Mesorhizobium mediterraneum.[6] This species, along with many other closely related taxa, have been found to promote production of chickpea and other crops worldwide by forming symbiotic relationships.
