DOI: 10.1007/s13199-018-0547-2
Abstract: Improving symbiotic nitrogen fixation would reduce reliance on synthetic fertilizers, but establishment of effective bacterial strains is hampered due to competition by indigenous, less effective rhizobia. This study investigated the origins, diversity, and competitiveness of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1134/s1021443718020176
Abstract: The legume plant Medicago truncatula Gaertn. can establish a symbiotic interaction with Sinorhizobium meliloti. One of the most limiting factors for symbiosis is phosphate (P) deficiency. Therefore, legumes and their symbiotic partners, rhizobia, have developed… read more here.

Abstract: The Legume-Rhizobium symbiosis has been proposed as a promising technique for the phytoremediation of contaminated soils due to its beneficial activity in symbiotic nitrogen fixation. However, numerous studies have shown that excessive heavy metals reduce… read more here.
