Rhizobial symbiosis refers to the mutually beneficial relationship that forms between plants and soil bacteria that fix nitrogen, termed rhizobia. The authors report that iron binds to and ...

Sanjai Karanth, first author and research associate in the Mechanoreceptors junior research group at the Leibniz Institute Protein nanofibrils derived from fava beans are one such biomaterial.

SUGAR bean farmers can save more than US$100 per hectare by using rhizobium bio-fertiliser instead of chemical fertilisers, the Government has advised, as planting of the legume reaches fever pitch.

Researchers have discovered a biological mechanism that makes plant roots more welcoming to beneficial soil microbes. Researchers have discovered a biological mechanism that makes plant roots more ...
