Abstract excerpt
Soybean plants host endosymbiotic dinitrogen (N2)-fixing bacteria from the genus Bradyrhizobium. Under oxygen-limiting conditions, Bradyrhizobium diazoefficiens and Bradyrhizobium japonicum perform denitrification by sequentially reducing nitrate (NO3-) to nitrous oxide (N2O) or N2. The anaerobic reduction of NO3- to N2O was previously shown to be lower in B. japonicum than in B. diazoefficiens due to impaired...
