Promotion of Acetylene Reduction by Rhizobium-Soybean Cell Associations in Vitro1

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Nitrogenase activity, determined by the acetylene reduction assay, in soybean cell suspensions infected with Rhizobium, was stimulated significantly by the addition of succinic acid or glutamine. Acetylene-dependent ethylene values as high as 4.6 μmoles of ethylene/gram dry weight·hour were observed.
