Advances in Host Plant and Rhizobium Genomics to Enhance Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation in Grain Legumes (2015, background): “However, it is widely accepted that in high fertility soils, especially those rich in organic matter, the application of starter N is not necessary; and at times can reduce nodulation and SNF in crops such as soybean (Mendes et al., 2003; Hungria et al., 2006b) and bean (Vargas et al., 2000).”
An Underground Revolution: Biodiversity and Soil Ecological Engineering for Agricultural Sustainability. (2016, background): “It is already standard practice to inoculate soybeans with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, which can completely replace the need for nitrogen fertilization [86].”
Sanctions and mutualism stability: when should less beneficial mutualists be tolerated? (2002, background): “Although the form of sanctions has not been examined, there is already considerable evidence for our prediction that nodule production is lower when levels of soil N are higher (Streeter, 1988; Rubio Arias et al., 1999; Vargas et al., 2000; Kiers et al., in press).”
