  • IMPROVED PLANT NITROGEN CONSISTENCY THROUGH THE SUPPLY OF WHOLE PLANT NITROGEN FROM A NITROGEN FIXING MICROBE
    Publication number: 20230276807
    Abstract: Abstract: A method for reducing variation in whole plant nitrogen includes providing, to a locus,a plurality of crop plants and a plurality of nitrogen fixing microbes that colonize the rhizosphere of said plurality of crop plants and supply the plants with fixed N. The variation in whole plant nitrogen of the plurality of crop plants colonized by said nitrogen fixing microbes, at a given growth stage and as measured across the locus, is lower than a variation in whole plant nitrogen of a control plurality of crop plants, when the control plurality of crop plants is provided to the locus.
