The organisms and biological processes involved in asymbiotic nitrogen fixation in waterlogged soil amended with straw.

The acetylene reduction assay was used to determine nitrogenase activity in a waterlogged soil–straw system. Nitrogenase activity was related to the number of nitrogen-fixing Clostridia. The patter...
