Solution

Nitrogen Fixation Bacteria:

  1. One of the best-known groups of nitrogen-fixing bacteria is rhizobia.
  2. Other groups of bacteria that are also known to aid nitrogen fixation are the Cyanobacteria and Frankia.
  3. Plants, particularly legumes, have symbiotic interactions with some nitrogen-fixing bacteria.
  4. Associative connections between diazotrophs and plants, such as nitrogen fixation on rice roots, are generally referred to as looser non-symbiotic partnerships.
