Plant and aphid genotypes modulate legume rhizobium-induced defense against aphids [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologySustainable protein production is needed to ensure food security while mitigating climate change. Leguminous crops contribute to these goals by providing protein-rich seeds and improving soil fertility through nitrogen-fixing symbiosis (NFS) with ...

La flore levurienne du compost et son effet sur l’haricot (Phaseolus vulgaris)
Revue Nature et Technologie, 2022 Les levures qui font partie des microorganismes, du compost utilisé dans la fertilisation du sol, ont attiré notre attention. Leur isolement, leur dénombrement et l'étude de leurs caractères culturaux et morphologiques ont révélé leur diversité et leur ...

Frontiers in Agronomy, 2023 One billion people globally suffer from protein (amino acid) malnutrition. Grain legumes represent a solution. They recruit symbiotic rhizobia bacteria from soil into root nodules, where the rhizobia convert atmospheric nitrogen gas (N2) into ammonia ...

Basic and Applied Ecology, 2022 Soil bacteria that associate with plant roots promote host vigor. Legume plants form mutualisms with rhizobial bacteria, and legumes grown with rhizobia have more nutrients and defenses than those grown without rhizobia.

The role of microbial interactions on rhizobial fitness
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Rhizobia are soil bacteria that can establish a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with legume plants. As horizontally transmitted symbionts, the life cycle of rhizobia includes a free-living phase in the soil and a plant-associated symbiotic phase.

Herbicides effects on symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2022 Rhizobia are an important component of sustainable agricultural production. In symbiosis with legumes, they provide adequate amounts of nitrogen for their growth and leave nitrogen in the soil for crops that follow in the rotation.
