How do soil-inhibiting bacteria improve the nitrogen suppy to legumes?


Rate This Answer

Bacteria Symbionts like the bacteria Rhizobium that fix nitrogen in legumes, and disease-causing pathogens, may be particularly well tuned to the composition and quantity of root exudates and be attracted to a particular plant. This means that it is also important to carefully match legume crop species with the appropriate commercial microbial inoculants, soil-inhibiting bacteria.
