U.S. soybean farmers face a $1 billion problem each year in the form of yield losses from soybean cyst nematode (SCN). 1 Yet rather than throw up your hands in defeat, get down in the soil and get ...
Legumes thrive in low-nitrogen environments by partnering with rhizobia, soil bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen into ammonium, a usable form for the plants. These beneficial bacteria are ...
Visual assessment of the accuracy of the (semi) automatic segmentation of soybean nodule vasculature using Biomedisa’s smart interpolation algorithm. A research team used synchrotron-based X-ray ...
Researchers demonstrate that the plant hormone gibberellin (GA) is essential for the formation and maturation of nitrogen-fixing root nodules in legumes and can also increase nodule size. Researchers ...
