Difference in delta(15)N signatures between nodulated roots and shoots of soybean is indicative of the contribution of symbiotic N(2) fixation to plant N

Symbiotic N(2) fixation has a variable effect on the (15)N abundance of different parts of legumes. Increases in fixation result in (15)N enrichment of nodules, while decreases, in combination with an increased uptake of mineral N, result in (15)N depletion of the root system. The difference between...
