Molybdenum and symbiotic nitrogen fixation by alder (alnus glutinosa gaertn. )


Play all audios:

ABSTRACT THE specific effect of molybdenum on the nitrogen fixation by _Azotobacter_ spp.1,2, _Clostridium pasteurianum_3,4, some blue-green algae (_Nostoc_ and _Anabaena_)5,6 and the


symbiotic nitrogen fixation by legumes7–9 is well established. So far, it is unknown whether molybdenum is also essential for the symbiotic nitrogen fixation of a non-legume such as alder


(_Alnus glutinosa_). The aim of the present investigation was to seek such an effect. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via
