Scientists discover the genetics inside legumes that control the production of an oxygen-carrying molecule, crucial to the plant's close relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. The finding offers ...

Researchers are one step closer to understanding how some plants survive without nitrogen. Their work could eventually reduce ...

New findings from the study of legumes have identified an unknown role of nitrogen fixation symbiosis on plant root-associated microbiome, which agriculture may benefit from in the future. Legumes ...

THE importance of legumes as symbiotic nitrogen-fixers in the pastures of temperate regions is generally recognized, and considerable data are available to show the contributions made to the soil ...

Soybeans and other legumes interact with nitrogen-fixing soil bacteria called rhizobia that are able to convert nitrogen in the air into a form the plant can use to grow and reproduce. Corn and other ...

Scientists at the John Innes Centre have discovered an important component in the process of nitrogen fixation in plants. They have identified a key protein that facilitates the movement of calcium in ...
