Nitrogen fixing symbioses between plants and bacteria are ancient and, while not
numerous, are formed in diverse lineages of plants ranging from microalgae to …

Recent observations suggest that the large carbon sink in mature and recovering forests
may be strongly limited by nitrogen,–. Nitrogen-fixing trees (fixers) in symbiosis with bacteria …

Symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) represents the largest natural input of bioavailable
nitrogen into the biosphere, impacting key processes spanning from local community …

We compared seasonal leaf gas exchange patterns, photosynthetic pigments, and
photosynthetic nutrient use efficiencies in two co-occurring tree species, Nepalese alder …

The Neotropics harbor some of the most diversified woody species in the world, and to
understand the nutrient dynamics in these ecosystems, it is crucial to understand the role of …

High abundance of trees capable of biological N-fixation (henceforth “N-fixers”) in tropical
forests has been hypothesized to drive higher stream nitrate (NO3) concentrations …

Background Nitrogen significantly influences plant performance and vegetation
development in nutrient-poor ecosystems like coastal dunes. While various sources …

Legumes symbiosis with rhizobial nitrogen-fixing bacteria enable them to grow in nitrate-
depleted soils. Rhizobial symbioses also induces systemic plant defence against …

Many studies have found that future predicted CO2 levels can increase plant mass but dilute
N content in leaves, impacting antiherbivore compounds. Nitrogen-fixing plants may balance …
