Nitrogen-fixing (acetylene redution) activity and population of aerobic heterotrophic nitrogen-fixing bacteria associated with wetland rice.
Nitrogen-fixing activity associated with different wetland rice varieties was measured at various growth stages by an in situ acetylene reduction method after the activities of blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) in the flood water and on the lower portion of the rice stem were eliminated. Nitrogen-fixing activities associated with rice varieties differed with plant growth stages. The activities i...
متن کاملStudies of aerobic non-symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria.
The occurrence of aerobic, non-symbiotic, nitroqen-fixing bacteria was determined in samples of soil collecte~l in the various soil zones of Allxrm and Saslcatchewan. Mannitol and sodiuttl betuoate dust-platrs. and mallnit01 solution cultures wiLh subsequent inoculation onto rnannitol agar demonstrated that Asolohnrtt-r were not wirlcspreatl in the Canadian prairie province soils. These r)n)ccr...
متن کاملFerredoxins from Nitrogen-Fixing Bacteria
Two ferredoxins have been purified from N2-fixing Mycobacterium flavum. Ferredoxin I had a minimum molecular weight (by amino acid analysis) of 11 230 and contained 7.4 mol Fe and 7.0 mol S2per mol. The ratio of the absorbance at 400 nm to that at 275 nm was 0.7. Ferredoxin I1 had a minimum molecular weight of 13478 and contained 3.4 mol Fe and 3.2 mol S2per mol. The ratio of the absorbance at ...
متن کاملNitrogen-fixing, photosynthetic, anaerobic bacteria associated with pelagic copepods
Purple sulfur bacteria are photosynthetic, anaerobic microorganisms that fix carbon dioxide using hydrogen sulfide as an electron donor; many are also nitrogen fixers. Because of t h e ~ r requirements for sulfide or orgamc carbon as electron donors in anoxygenic photosynthesis, these bacteria are generally thought to be l im~ted to shallow, organic-nch, anoxic environments such as subtidal mar...
متن کاملNitrogen Fixing
Blue Green Algae (BGA) have the capacity to self generate photosynthates from CO and 2 water. It is gratifying to note that Aulosira is the most important alga of the rice fields of India. Algalization has been found to benefit all the growth parameters. The propagation of BGA enriches the N status of soil and also provides organic matter and biological quotient 2 substances for plant growth. T...
