Several books on N2fixation have been published recently (32, 67, 90, 101, 154, 178), and a variety of specialized topics concerning N2 fixation have been reviewed, including …
This review examines the properties and function of leghaemoglobin, particularly in relation to an efficient phase of Rhizobium bacteroid respiration which occurs in legume root …
Infection of legume roots with Rhizobium species results in the development of a root nodule structure in which the bacteria form an intracellular symbiosis with the plant. We report here …
