Peas and other legumes develop spherical or cylindrical structures -- called nodules -- in their roots to establish a mutually beneficial relationship with bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen ...
THE red pigment in the root nodules of a leguminous plant (Vicia Faba) was investigated for the first time by Pietz 1. He believed it to be identical with the red intermediate product which appears ...
Most scientific research on the root-soil interactions of legumes focuses on rhizobia and nitrogen-fixing root nodules. However, many forms of non-rhizobia bacteria are also detected in these nodules.
Legumes thrive in low-nitrogen environments by partnering with rhizobia, soil bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen into ammonium, a usable form for the plants. These beneficial bacteria are ...
Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol. 34, No. 145 (August 1983), pp. 951-963 (13 pages) There is a coupled decrease in respiration and nitrogenase activity of nodules of many legume symbioses induced ...
Aeschynomene fluminensis Vell., originally obtained from flooded areas of the Pantanal Matogrossense region of Brazil, was grown under stem-flooded or non-flooded conditions for 70 d after inoculation ...
Let’s consider the opposite of “loneliness” in plants by thinking about the relationships they form. A well-known plant-bacteria relationship is between leguminous plants and bacteria in their nodules ...
