  5. Rhizobia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhizobia

    Rhizobia are a "group of soil bacteria that infect the roots of legumes to form root nodules ". [2] Rhizobia are found in the soil and, after infection, produce nodules in the legume where they fix nitrogen gas (N 2) from the atmosphere, turning it into a more readily useful form of nitrogen. From here, the nitrogen is exported from the nodules ...

  6. Nod factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nod_factor

    Nod factor. The structure of the major Nod factor produced by Sinorhizobium meliloti. Nod factors ( nodulation factors or NF ), are signaling molecules produced by soil bacteria known as rhizobia in response to flavonoid exudation from plants under nitrogen limited conditions. Nod factors initiate the establishment of a symbiotic relationship ...

  7. Bradyrhizobium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradyrhizobium

    Bradyrhizobium species are Gram-negative bacilli (rod-shaped) with a single subpolar or polar flagellum. They are common soil-dwelling micro-organisms that can form symbiotic relationships with leguminous plant species where they fix nitrogen in exchange for carbohydrates from the plant. Like other rhizobia, many members of this genus have the ...
