RESEARCH-ARTICLE

The Fixation of Nitrogen associated with the Root Nodules of Myrica gale L., with Special Reference to its pH Relation and Ecological Significance

G. BOND

Botany Department, University of Glasgow

The paper deals with the fixation of nitrogen by nodulated plants of Myrica gale under experimental conditions, the fixation being, in the first year of development, of a magnitude comparable to that of legumes under similar conditions. The effect of acidity on the fixation has been investigated. The Myrica organism is markedly adapted to acid conditions. The observations are correlated with field data in Britain and help to explain the distribution and habits of the species.
