Addition and Loss of Nitrogen from Soil
Article shared by :
Nitrogen is added to the soil and lost from it when it undergoes a number of transformations. A small portion of nitrogen gas is directly assimilated by symbiotic and non- symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacteria and also by blue-green algae, to synthesize their cell protoplasm. Proteins present in organic matter as well as in the bodies […]
