Biological nitrogen fixation and transfer by Acacia mollissima in the field

  • 1. Universite Moulay Ismail, Meknes (Morocco). Dept. de Biologie

Description

Pot experiments were conducted to model the behaviour of nitrogen in Acacia mollissima and to improve the methodology of sampling this tree in the field. Different levels of soil nitrogen were used and their effects on nitrogen fixation studied. Acacia was grown in a pure stand and in a mixture with wheat to investigate the effect of nitrogen fixation on nitrogen nutrition of wheat and to examine competition between acacia and wheat for mineral nitrogen. 3 refs, 3 tabs
