In.1930 Bortels published a paper entitled "Molybdenum as a Catalyst in the Biological Fixation of Nitrogen." Using Azotobacter chroococcurn, a freeliving nitrogen-fixing bacterium, he showed that if grown in a nitrogen-free nutrient solution, its growth was stimulated by the addition of a very small amount of sodium molybdate. In another paper in 1933

Sulphur in Nitrogen Metabolism of Legumes and Non-Legumes [PDF]
A study was made of the influence of sulphur on the nitrogen metabolismof subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.) and the non-legUmes oats(Avena sativa L.), Hax and linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.), andPaspalumdilatatum Poir. All these species responded to fertilizers containing sulphur onthe three soils used.
