It is an essential nutrient for plant growth, root nodule formation of legumes, and immunity and defense systems.
22.
Unlike other members of the Crotalarieae, members of the genus " Listia " have lupinoid root nodules.
23.
Root nodules can be classified as being either indeterminate, cylindrical and often branched, and determinate, spherical with prominent lenticels.
24.
Leghemoglobin buffers the concentration of free oxygen in the cytoplasm of infected plant cells to ensure the proper function of root nodules.
25.
Some " Dryas " plants have root nodules that host the nitrogen-fixing bacterium " Frankia ".
26.
On numerous microscope cells of tubercles were filled with rod-like bacteria, which Voronin called " root nodule bacteria ".
27.
It forms nitrogen-fixing root nodules on legumes, being first isolated from those of " Phaseolus vulgaris ".
28.
It was first isolated from " Glycine soja " and " Glycine max " root nodules in China.
29.
Another quality unique to leguminous cover crops is that they form symbiotic relationships with the rhizobial bacteria that reside in legume root nodules.
30.
Species in this genus can fix nitrogen from the air courtesy of their root nodules, making them useful as a cover crop.
