Bacteria belonging to the genera Rhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Sinorhizobium,
Bradyrhizobium, and Azorhizobium (collectively referred to as rhizobia) grow in the soil as …

▪ Abstract Rhizobia are soil bacteria that can engage in a symbiosis with leguminous plants
that produces nitrogen-fixing root nodules. This symbiosis is based on specific recognition of …

Providing comprehensive coverage of the biological activities and industrial applications of
Chitin, Chitosan, oligosaccharides, and their derivatives, this book presents a balance of …

In the rhizosphere, exudates from plants and microorganisms as well as stable soil organic
matter influence processes that can control plant growth, microbial infections, and nutrient …

▪ Abstract Symbiosis between rhizobia and leguminous plants leads to the formation of N2-
fixing root nodules. The interaction of rhizobia and plants shows a high degree of host …

The onset of nodule development, the result of rhizobia–legume symbioses, is determined
by the exchange of chemical compounds between microsymbiont and leguminous host …

The expression of the auxin responsive reporter construct, GH3: gusA, was examined in
transgenic white clover plants to assess changes in the auxin balance during the earliest …

Biological nitrogen fixation is a process that can only be performed by certain prokaryotes. In
some cases, such bacteria are able to fix nitrogen in a symbiotic relationship with plants …

Nitrogen fixing bacteria, collectively referred to as rhizobia, are able to trigger the
organogenesis of a new organ on legumes, the nodule. The morphogenetic trigger is a …

Greenhouse experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of Nod factor Nod Bj‐V
(C18: 1, MeFuc) of Badyrhizobium japonicum on the growth of soybean and corn. Three‐day …
