“…In greenhouse (Heckman and Kluchinski, 1995) and field experiments (Hφgh‐Jensen and Kristensen, 1995), soil N immobilization was also linked to the increased dependency of legumes on symbiotic N 2 fixation. The enhancing effects of DPS on N 2 fixation of forage legumes due to its high C/N ratio may be further enhanced by the high pH (alkaline) and Ca concentration of DPS (Beauchamp et al, 2002), similar to the effect achieved by liming, for example, in common bean (Buerkert et al, 1990) or alfalfa (Pijnenberg and Lie, 1990).…”

ing N 2 -fixing symbioses with rhizobia. Indeed, Fierro et al. (1997), in a greenhouse experiment, demonstratedThe paper de-inking process produces a waste by-product, dethat growth and nutrition of the N 2 -fixing legumes gainking paper sludge (DPS), which contains paper fibers, clay particles, and inks and has high C and Ca and low N and P concentrations. lega (Galega orientalis Lam.) and sweetclover were not Use of high rates of DPS to increase the soil organic matter thus negatively affected by DPS, provided that sufficient P requires provision of high rates of N for adequate plant growth. Using was supplied. dinitrogen (N 2 )-fixing forage legumes is an alternative to the N fertil-Considerable efforts have been directed to the develization under such circumstances. In a 2-yr field study (1995 and 1996), opment of methods for measuring N 2 fixation (Rennie the effect of different rates of DPS (0, 50, or 100 Mg dry matter ha Ϫ1 ), and Rennie, 1983; Hauck and Weaver, 1986; Shearer applied once in October 1994, were evaluated on symbiotic N 2 fixation and Kohl, 1986; Danso et al., 1993; Chalk and Ladha, of forage legumes established on two soil types in Eastern Quebec, 1999). Selection of a suitable method to estimate N 2 Canada. Symbiotic N 2 fixation was measured in alfalfa (Medicago fixation is of outmost importance. Available methods sativa L.), birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.), red clover (Trifohave distinct advantages and disadvantages, i.e., experilium pratense L.), and sweetclover (Melilotus officinalis L.); bromegrass (Bromus inermis L.) was used as the reference (non N 2 -fixing) mental conditions, complexity, and cost of analyses. The crop. Dinitrogen fixation was estimated by the 15 N natural abundance methods that are currently the most reliable for demethod. The percentages of N derived from the atmosphere increased termining N 2 fixation imply the use of stable isotopes significantly with DPS in the year of establishment (1995). In the first of N (Unkovich and Pate, 2001). production year (1996), the effects of DPS on N 2 fixation were mainly Nitrogen-15 isotope dilution techniques, including 15 N observed at the first cut. Our results show that DPS used as an natural abundance ( 15 N-NA) and 15 N enrichment ( 15 N-E) organic amendment generally led to similar or greater forage legume methods, to quantify N 2 fixation by legumes, have been productivity and greater N 2 fixation compared with unamended conused extensively. With these methods, N 2 fixation in trols in the first production year and is compatible with sustainable forage legumes can be estimated over long periods of agricultural practices.

“…The transparent lid allows observation of the root system continuously, and by opening the lid it is possible to inoculate or to apply treatment at a certain location and certain time. Using this system, the effect of several factors of soil acidity affecting N fixation by lucerne was studied (Pijnenborg and Lie 1990).…”

To clarify whether P had a direct or indirect effect on the nodulation process of soybean grown in acid soils from Sitiung, West Sumatra, Indonesia, a series of rhizotron experiments, with special attention given to formation of nodule primordia, was conducted at Laboratory of Microbiology, Wageningen University in 1998-2000. It was shown that Ca and P were essential nutrients for root growth, nodule formation, and growth of soybean in the acid soils (Oxisols). Ca increased root growth, number of nodule primordia, nodules, and growth of the soybean plant. This positive effect of Ca was increased considerably by the application of P. Ca and P have a synergistic effect on biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) of soybean in acid soils. Ca is important for the establishment of nodules, whilst P is essential for the development and function of the formed nodules. P increased number of nodule primordia, thus it also has an important role in the initiation of nodule formation. From this study, it can be concluded that Ca and P are the most limiting nutrients for BNF of soybean in the acid soils of Sitiung, West Sumatra, Indonesia.

“…Esse fato ressalta a necessidade de calagem em solos ácidos com o objetivo de fornecer também o cálcio para um melhor estabelecimento da associação simbiótica entre Medicago sativa e Sinorhizobium meliloti. O efeito positivo da calagem sobre o número de nódulos e também sobre a atividade da nitrogenase já foi observado em alfafa por HARTEL & BOUTON (1989), PIJNENBORG & LIE (1990) e REID (1996).…”

Altas concentrações de alumínio reduzem a eficência da nodulação e da fixação biológica do nitrogênio atmosférico em leguminosas. O presente ensaio foi realizado em casa de vegetação com o objetivo de avaliar a necessidade de calagem para o cultivo da alfafa em LATOSSOLO VERMELHO-AMARELO álico, textura argilosa. Também foi avaliado o efeito da relação Ca:Mg do calcário aplicado ao solo, sobre a nodulação, os teores de nitrogênio e a produção de matéria seca da parte aérea. Os tratamentos consistiram de duas cultivares de alfafa (Flórida 77 e Crioula), quatro doses de calcário (1,2; 2,4; 4,8; 7,2 t ha-1) e cinco relações percentuais estequiométricas entre Ca e Mg (100:0; 75:25; 50:50; 25:75; 0:100), em delineamento fatorial inteiramente casualizado, com quatro repetições. A nodulação e os teores de nitrogênio na parte aérea aumentaram com a adição de doses crescentes de calcário ao solo. A produção de matéria seca da parte aérea das duas cultivares aumentou em função do aumento das doses de calcário, sendo que somente o cultivar Flórida 77 apresentou diferenças significativas entre as relações Ca:Mg. A relação 100:0 foi a que rendeu maior produção de matéria seca da parte aérea.
