Economy of Photosynthate Use in Nitrogen-fixing Legume
TL;DR: More efficient use of C by cowpea nodules was due to a lesser requirement of C for synthesis of exported N compounds, a smaller allocation of C to nodule dry matter, and a lower evolution of CO(2).
Journal ArticleDOI
Mobilization of Nitrogen in Fruiting Plants of a Cultivar of Cowpea
Journal ArticleDOI
Symbiotic Performance of Supernoclulating Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) Mutants during Development on Different Nitrogen Regimes
Alexander P. Hansen,Mark B. Peoples,Peter M. Gresshoff,Craig A. Atkins,John S. Pate,Bernard J. Carroll +5 more
TL;DR: Comparison of estimates of N2 fixation derived from the 15N-dilution technique with those based on relative ureide content of xylem sap indicated that the latter offered a simple and reliable procedure for evaluating the symbiotic performance of supernodulating plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Post-Anthesis Economy of Carbon in a Cultivar of Cowpea
TL;DR: Budgets for transfer of carbon from individual leaves and other source organs to fruits and nodulated roots were constructed for stages of the post-flowering development of symbiotically-dependent cowpea and all currently-active sources supplied all sinks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between Acetylene Reduction Activity, Hydrogen Evolution and Nitrogen Fixation in Nodules of Acacia spp.: Experimental Background to Assaying Fixation by Acetylene Reduction under Field Conditions
TL;DR: Hansen et al. as discussed by the authors examined the relationship between acetylene reduction activity, hydrogen evolution and nitrogen fixation in nodules of Acacia alata R. pulchella R.Br and A. extensa R.
