- Observation Four Azolla isolates grew well in paddy fields before and after rice transplanting.
- Intervention effect Azolla increased rice plant height, tillering and 1000-grain weight.
- Intervention effect Azolla increased rice nitrogen concentration and uptake.
- Intervention effect Azolla increased soil fertility.
- Observation Rice response to Azolla resembled response to 60 kg N ha −1 as urea.
- Observation Bangkok and Vietnam Azolla isolates had better growth, nitrogen fixation and rice responses than Bangladesh and India isolates.
- Association Azolla growth and nitrogen fixation were better with short rice varieties than with Mahsuri.
- Observation Mahsuri rice responded better to Azolla.
