Starting points in plant-bacteria nitrogen-fxing symbioses: Intercellular invasion of the roots

Agricultural practices contribute to climate change by releasing greenhouse gases such as nitrous oxide that are mainly derived from nitrogen fertilizers. Therefore, understanding biological nitrogen fxation in farming systems is benefcial to agriculture and environmental preservation. In this conte...
