Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Light intensity did not affect Gomphrena chloroplast membrane configuration.
- Association Gomphrena metabolite levels seemed to vary with light intensity.
- Observation Gomphrena photosynthetic properties appeared intermediate among C-4 plants.
- Mechanism Paspalum roots appeared to exude sufficient substrate to support A. paspali nitrogen fixation.
- Observation Paspalum roots neutralized increased environmental acidity.
- Association Low pH inhibited nitrogen fixation by A. paspali in continuous culture.
- Observation Beijerinckia spp. were found in relatively low numbers in the Paspalum rhizosphere.
- Observation Derxia gummosa was found in relatively low numbers in the Paspalum rhizosphere.
- Association A. paspali nitrogen fixation may be less oxygen inhibited than fixation by other rhizosphere bacteria.
