a. Can we artificially induce the property of nitrogen fixation in a plant – leguminous or non-leguminous?
b. What kind of relationship is observed between mycorrihiza and pine trees?
c. Is it necessary for a microbe to be in close association with a plant to provide mineral nutrition? Explain with the help of one example.
An example of this association is the rod- shaped Rhizobium and several legume like sweet pea, garden pea etc. relationship.
