Associative nitrogen fixation (ANF) in switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) across a nitrogen input gradient.
Associative N fixation (ANF), the process by which dinitrogen gas is converted to ammonia by bacteria in casual association with plants, has not been well-studied in temperate ecosystems. We examined the ANF potential of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.), a North American prairie grass whose product...
