Popis: | Background Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus is a nitrogen-fixing bacterium initially isolated from sugarcane plants. Endophytic diazotrophs have the potential to fix nitrogen, but the extent of nitrogen fixation is variable and is dependent on the sugarcane genotype and other factors. Exploration of colonization of G. diazotrophicus in other plant species will provide a possibility for the development of nitrogen fixation potential in new host plants. |
