Even though the symbiotic partners described above play an important role in the worldwide ecology of nitrogen fixation, by far the most important nitrogen-fixing symbiotic associations are the ...

Most of the symbiotic associations are very specific ... of the bacteria into the root and trigger the process of nitrogen fixation in nodules that form on the roots (Figure 3).

The relationship is considered to be symbiotic because the soybean plant provides a ... at 100 lb/ac compared to plants receiving no supplemental N (Figure 2). Nitrogen fixation by soybean decreases ...

Research into bacteria strains that are both competitive and efficient in nitrogen fixation and developing plants with those ...

who showed also that seedlings of Calluna vulgaris in pure culture thrive in a rooting medium lacking combined nitrogen. 3. In 1916 Duggar offered additional evidence for fixation of nitrogen by ...

Soybeans fix nitrogen, everyone knows that, but did you know soil bacteria are key partners in the process? Rhizobia, the soil bacteria in question, form a symbiotic relationship with the soybeans ...

Plants with root nodules, for example, secrete compounds such as flavonoids when nitrates are scarce in the soil, helping to activate signaling pathways in nitrogen-fixing bacteria that then ...

Autumn olive engages in a symbiotic relationship with Frankia bacteria in root nodules, the location where nitrogen fixation occurs. Previous research has demonstrated that autumn olive is capable of ...
