Bradyrhizobium Inoculation of Field-Grown Kersting's Groundnut [Macrotyloma geocarpum (Harms) Marechal & Baudet] Increased Grain Yield and N2 Fixation, Measured Using the Ureide, and 15N Natural Abundance Techniques

Here, we report on the symbiotic N2 fixation and water use efficiency (δ13C) of Kersting's groundnut, an important but underutilized grain legume in Africa, in response to inoculation with Bradyrhizobium strains 3267 and CB756. The 15N natural abundance and xylem ureide techniques were used to...
