Five of the international agricultural research centers (IARC's) currently have research programs in the area of biological nitrogen (N2) fixation. This paper reviews the activities of the centers in this area and highlights common and distinctive features of the programs, as well as their links ...

Research on biological nitroten fixation in the international agricultural research centers
Host-determined traits influence nodule initiation, development, and function. and can be of major importance to the proper functioning of the legume Rhizobium symbiosis under field conditions. Thls paper reviews such traits and considers their implications for practically oriented breeding progr...
While symbiotic nitrogen (N2) fixation by G. max and P. vulgaris reduces their need for combined N, N2 fixation under field conditions is rarely maximized. This paper reviews constraints to N2 fixation in these species, then examines the genetic variability recorded for traits affecting N2 fixati...
