Factors affecting soil acidification under legumes. III. Acid production by N2 -fixing legumes as influenced by nitrate supply

Leaching of nitrate through soil profiles is a major cause of soil acidification. Legume species differ in their ability to take up nitrate (NO3 - ) and in the degree to which soil NO3 - impairs legume nodulation and N2 fixation. This pot experiment examined species variation in N2 fixation and acid...
