Thats interesting, grapevines are using same mechanism to get the nitrogen, but the real problem is that once you introduce artifical source of digestable version of nitrogen, plant decide that it is not worth of investing into this ecosystem and it gets addicted on this supply.
Maybe this is quite common trait in other plant species and it is just not propagated due to the availability of nitrogen?
- rripken 8y agoCan you link to more info about grapes fixing nitrogen? I've never heard of that.
- dejv 8y agoSeems like there are not that much information available in English. I am based in Europe and most of research I am familiar with comes from other languages sources (German, French). I found one source that looks promissing, but I haven't really read it: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s13593-015-0329-7 https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s13593-015-0329-7
