Research team breaks into secrets of legumes as fertilizer alternative
Secrets behind the distinctive "nitrogen-fixing factories" of legumes have been uncovered in an international research study in Shanghai, providing new approaches to sustainable plant growth.
The findings of the research, led by Canadian Jeremy Dale Murray, and their significance have been published in the academic journal Science.
Modern agriculture heavily relies on industrially produced nitrogen fertilizers. But legumes – the third largest plant family on Earth – have the enviable ability to become self-sufficient for nitrogen.
