"Sinorhizobium meliloti" is a nitrogen-fixing bacterium (rhizobium). It forms a symbiotic relationship with legumes from the genera "Medicago", "Melilotus" and "Trigonella", including model legume "Medicago truncatula". The "S. meliloti" genome contains three replicons: a 3.65 megabase chromosome and two megaplasmids, pSymA (1.35 megabases) and pSymB (1.68 megabases), that have all been fully sequenced.

This bacteria's nitrogen fixing is interfered with the plastic modifier Bisphenol A.
