Phenotypic, Host Range and Symbiotic Characteristics of Indigenous Soybean No... N3 | TTL | RDF/XML | JSON-LD
Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research (EIAR)Soybean is an exotic crop to Ethiopia and may not necessarily have a specific endosymbiont in the soil. However, since it is a promiscuous host, nodulated by cross nodulating rhizobia, it is likely that some compatible endosymbionts exist from heterologous hosts that could nodulate it with effective nitrogen fixation. This necessitated the search for...Created March 18, 2023 • Updated December 30, 2023 -
