BOOK

The Biology of Nitrogen Fixation

---

This edited volume provides a comprehensive overview of nitrogen fixation, covering both the biochemical and ecological aspects of the process. It brings together contributions from multiple experts in the field to examine the mechanisms by which atmospheric nitrogen is converted into biologically usable forms by microorganisms. Key topics include the structure and function of the nitrogenase enzyme system, genetic control of nitrogen fixation, and the roles of free-living and symbiotic bacteria such as Rhizobium and cyanobacteria. The book also explores environmental influences on nitrogen fixation and its importance in agriculture and global nutrient cycling. It is considered a foundational reference for researchers and students studying microbial physiology and plant–microbe interactions.
