Legume-rhizobia interactions in a complex microbiome
… (nitrogen fixing bacteria) in association with legume plants. Most research in improving rhizobial strains involves single strain experiments. However, improved metagenomics methods have demonstrated considerable differences between single strain inoculations and strain behaviour when exposed to …

Some studies of high moisture legume silage
Silage is fermented forage plants. It is a succulent and nutritious feed, which can be used especially when green forage is not available. The methods by which it is made were first developed from a nineteenth century German process for making sour hay.

Legume Establishment in Native Warm-Season Grass Pastures
Interseeding legumes in native warm-season grasses (NWSG) may improve the nutritive value of the stand, result in more consistent forage availability throughout the growing season, and increase forage yield. These benefits are often not realized due to difficulties in establishing legumes in …

Effects of Subsidized inputs on legume production in Zambia
… the production of other crops including legumes (Mason et. al., 2013). This study seeks to empirically investigate the effect that the government sponsored maize input subsidy program is having on the production of legumes. This study uses panel data from a three-wave national …

Functional genomics of nodulins in the model legume Lotus japonicus
During this PhD project three technical platforms were either improved or newly established in order to identify interesting genes involved in SNF, validate their expression and functionally characterise them. An existing 5.6K cDNA array (Colebatch et al., 2004) was extended to produce the 9.6K …

Compatibility, Yield, and Quality of Warm-Season Grass-Legume Mixtures
… and hay systems were tested. Six interseeded legume species and two grass monoculture checks, one with 56 kg N/ha applied in spring and after each harvest, the other with no N, were imposed as sub-plots. Legume species included alfalfa, red clover, sericea lespedeza, annual lespedeza, Illinois …

The Endophytes of Pediomelum Esculentum: A Unique Case in Legume Evolution
… (commonly prairie turnip) is a perennial legume of the Great Plains, consisting of a deep taproot and large edible tuber, and has served as a nutritious staple in Native American diets. The tuber is capable of storing up to 20 percent protein by weight. <em>P. esculentum</em> is a legume, …

Indirect genetic effects of rhizobium symbiosis plasmid on legume-grass dynamics
Legume-grass dynamics are keystone interactions in terrestrial ecosystems, but outcomes vary from facilitative to competitive depending on nitrogen (N) availability in the environment. Rhizobial bacteria provide fixed N to their legume hosts, and thus the presence or identity of rhizobia can …

Map-based cloning of the NIP gene in model legume Medicago truncatula.
… to industrial fertilizers can be found in legume plants that provide a nitrogen source that is not harmful for the environment. Legume plants, through their symbiosis with soil bacteria called rhizobia, are able to reduce atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia, a biological nitrogen source. …

MtCEP1 peptides regulate lateral organ development in the model legume, Medicago truncatula
… peptides, MtCEP1, is studied in the model legume, Medicago truncatula, for its regulation of nitrogen-mediated root development, most particularly, lateral root and nodule formation. The MtCEP1 peptide-encoding gene is upregulated by low nitrogen condition, an environmental cue which …

Legume integration and nutrient management impacts on soil health and cropping system productivity
… in these agricultural systems. Integration of legumes into cropping systems, especially when combined with organic nutrient inputs, holds great promise for supporting soil health. However, legume performance and potential contributions to soil health, likely depend on legume species, management …
