Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Combined leghemoglobin and succinate greatly increased isolated bacteroid acetylene reduction activity.
- Observation At 2% oxygen, bacteroid organic acid degradation was very slow.
- Observation Lactate and acetate accumulated at low oxygen.
- Observation At 20% oxygen, bacteroids rapidly degraded organic acids without leghemoglobin.
- Intervention effect Leghemoglobin accelerated bacteroid organic acid degradation even at 2% oxygen.
- Intervention effect With leghemoglobin, lactate and acetate formation was negligible.
- Intervention effect With leghemoglobin present, organic acid degradation did not significantly differ between 2% and 20% oxygen.
- Intervention effect Acetylene slightly inhibited organic acid degradation.
