Comparative sequence analysis of nitrogen fixation-related genes in six legumes

Comparative sequence analysis of nitrogen fixation-related genes in six legumes

Legumes play an important role as food and forage crops in international agriculture especially in developing countries. Legumes have a unique biological process called nitrogen fixation (NF) by which they convert atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia. Although legume genomes have undergone polyploidizati...
