Mycelial network-mediated rhizobial dispersal enhances legume nodulation
W Zhang, XG Li, K Sun, MJ Tang, FJ Xu… - The ISME …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
The access of rhizobia to legume host is a prerequisite for nodulation. Rhizobia are poorly
motile in soil, while filamentous fungi are known to grow extensively across soil pores. Since …

Do techniques based on 15N enrichment and 15N natural abundance give consistent estimates of the symbiotic dependence of N2-fixing plants?
PM Chalk, CT Inácio, FC Balieiro, JRC Rouws - Plant and soil, 2016 - Springer
Aims The primary aim of this review is to determine if methods based on 15 N enrichment (E)
and 15 N natural abundance (NA) give consistent estimates of the proportional dependence …

Selection of competitive and efficient rhizobia strains for white clover
The practice of inoculating forage legumes with rhizobia strains is widespread. It is assumed
that the inoculated strain determines the performance of the symbiosis and nitrogen fixation …

Nutrient demand and fungal access to resources control the carbon allocation to the symbiotic partners in tripartite interactions of Medicago truncatula
Legumes form tripartite interactions with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and rhizobia, and both
root symbionts exchange nutrients against carbon from their host. The carbon costs of these …

Fields with no recent legume cultivation have sufficient nitrogen-fixing rhizobia for crops of faba bean (Vicia faba L.)
M Maluk, F Ferrando-Molina, L Lopez del Egido… - Plant and Soil, 2022 - Springer
Purpose (1) To assess the biological N fixation (BNF) potential of varieties of faba bean

Nitrogen but not phosphorus addition affects symbiotic N2 fixation by legumes in natural and semi-natural grasslands located on four continents
Background and aims The amount of nitrogen (N) derived from symbiotic N2 fixation by
legumes in grasslands might be affected by anthropogenic N and phosphorus (P) inputs, but …

Sward composition and soil moisture conditions affect nitrous oxide emissions and soil nitrogen dynamics following urea-nitrogen application
Increased emissions of N 2 O, a potent greenhouse gas (GHG), from agricultural soils is a
major concern for the sustainability of grassland agriculture. Emissions of N 2 O are closely …

Nitrogen fixation by common beans in crop mixtures is influenced by growth rate of associated species
Background Legumes can fix atmospheric nitrogen (N) and facilitate N availability to their
companion plants in crop mixtures. However, biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) of legumes …
