Visual assessment of the accuracy of the (semi) automatic segmentation of soybean nodule vasculature using Biomedisa’s smart interpolation algorithm. A research team used synchrotron-based X-ray ...

A polysaccharide produced by Bradyrhizobium japonicum bacteroids in nodules (NPS) on soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) roots is different in composition and structure from the extracellular ...

Synthetic nitrogen fertilizers underpin modern crop yields but carry a steep environmental price. Their industrial production consumes vast amounts of fossil fuel and contributes significantly to ...

Researchers have discovered peptide factors that function in the shoot and root systems to transport iron into the root nodules colonized by nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Moreover, these peptide factors ...

Instead of relying solely on nitrogen in the soil, soybeans and many other legumes can pull nitrogen from the air for their growth – a natural process that is environmentally friendly and also ...

Background and aims During historical yield improvement in soybean, breeders have seldom considered selection for root traits, generally focusing selection on yield traits. Yet, it is not known how ...

Scientists have discovered some of the molecular mechanisms controlling how plants -- including important crops like soybean and rice -- will respond to rising global temperatures, finding higher ...
