Nitrogen Fixation by Soil Algae of Temperate and Tropical Soils

Nitrogen Fixation by Soil Algae of Temperate and Tropical Soils

Blue-green algae are common components of the microbial flora of the soil in many parts of the world (7, 8, 18, 30). In the tropics most attention has been paid to their role in rice paddy soils where, free-living (26, 27) and in symbiotic association with the water-fern Azolla (3, 19, 21, 36) they...
