Answers

Answer:

Rhizobium–legume symbioses are of great ecological and agronomic importance, due to their ability to fix large amounts of atmospheric nitrogen. These symbioses result in the formation on legume roots of differentiated organs called nodules, in which the bacteria reduce nitrogen into ammonia used by the host plant.

Explanation:

Rhizobia are diazotrophic bacteria that fix nitrogen after becoming established inside the root nodules of legumes (Fabaceae). To express genes for nitrogen fixation, rhizobia require a plant host; they cannot independently fix nitrogen.
