This research focuses on enhancing nitrogen fixation in rice cultivation by studying the interactions between nitrogen-fixing bacteria and rice plants. It aims to uncover how these microorganisms contribute to the nitrogen needs of rice in flooded fields.
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the world’s most important crop plants.
The production is strongly limited by nitrogen (N), which is typically supplied by industrial fertilizers that are costly and hazardous to the environment.
Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) through N2 fixing Bacteria and Archaea (diazotrophs) can alleviate the N-shortage in rice cultivation and was estimated to account for up to 25% of the total N-demand of the plants.
However, our knowledge on N2 fixation related processe…
