Selection for improved nitrogen fixation in Glycine max (L.) Merr. and Phaseolus vulgaris L.

While symbiotic nitrogen (N2) fixation by G. max and P. vulgaris reduces their need for combined N, N2 fixation under field conditions is rarely maximized. This paper reviews constraints to N2 fixation in these species, then examines the genetic variability recorded for traits affecting N2 fixation...
