  1. 1. Nodulation and biomass development of yellow and blue lucerne under pH stress

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Author : Katarina Boström; [2023]
    Keywords : lucerne; blue lucerne BL ; yellow lucerne YL ; E. meliloti; nodulation; pH;

    Abstract : Approximately 77% of global arable land use is devoted to forage cultivation, which is the basis for animal production and global food security. Therefore a sustainable and biologically diverse forage cultivation is needed. Feed for cattle needs to contain a good balance between fibre, energy and protein. READ MORE

  3. 2. Swedish red clover-associated Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii share high genetic similarity in the 16S gene but divergence in nod genes

    University essay from SLU/Department of Plant Biology (from 140101)

    Author : Tua Lilja; [2023]
    Keywords : genetics; nitrogen fixation; sustainability; symbiosis; taxonomy;

    Abstract : Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar trifolii (Rlt) is a root-associated soil bacterium (rhizobia) capable of entering a symbiotic relationship with various species of clover (Trifolium sp.) and fix nitrogen within root nodules. READ MORE

  4. 3. Abundance of root nodules on common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris : a comparison between Swedish fields with and without a recent history of common bean cultivation

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Christina Hultman; [2018]
    Keywords : sustainability; protein-source; legume-based food; nitrogen fixation; root nodules;

    Abstract : Legumes such as common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L. are climate-smart protein sources which can be part of sustainable agriculture and eating habits to increase the resilience in our food system. READ MORE

  5. 4. Förekomsten av rotknölsbildande bakterier för Brun böna (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) och Blå lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.) i olika jordar

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Christina Fröberg; [2013]
    Keywords : Rotknölsbildande bakterier; Brun böna Phaseolus vulgaris L. ; Blå lupin Lupinus angustifolius L. ; Försöksodling; Root nodule bacteria; Brown bean Phaseolus vulgaris L. ; Blue lupin Lupinus angustifolius L. ; Trial cultivation;

    Abstract : Kvävgas kan inte tas upp direkt av växter men genom biologisk kvävefixering kan vissa symbiosbildande bakterier omvandla kvävgas till ammonium. Med bakteriens hjälp kan en växt tillgodogöra sig ammonium och på så sätt bilda protein. READ MORE

  6. 5. Nodulation of the N2-fixing legume narrow-leafed lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.) : soil inoculation methods, root nodule development and molecular identification of rhizobia

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Biology and Forest Genetics (until 131231)

    Author : Martin Gregorc; [2011]
    Keywords : DNA sequence analysis; Bradyrhizobium ; symbiosis ; root nodule formation ; inoculation ; N2 fixation; lupin species;

    Abstract : The following paper is a study on the interaction between Lupinus angustifolius L. and N2-fixing nodulating bacteria in selected Swedish soils. Bacteria being able to induce N2-fixing symbiotic root nodules on legume plants are generally called rhizobia. READ MORE
