Abstract excerpt
The rhizosphere of wetland rice has significant N2-fixing activity. It has been suggested that N2 fixation in the rice root zone is associated with the activity of various N2-fixing heterotrophic bacteria that inhabit the rice rhizosphere. Because of the generic diversity, many different isolation media and conditions are required to count and isolate these bacteria. In an attempt to overcome any bias from...
