Study enhances understanding of soybean nodule structures for improved nitrogen fixation efficiency
A research team used synchrotron-based X-ray microcomputed tomography (SR-μCT) to non-invasively obtain high-quality 3D images of fresh soybean root nodules, quantifying the volumes of the central infected zone (CIZ) and vascular bundles (VBs). https://phys.org/news/2024-07-soybean-nodule-nitrogen-fixation-efficiency.html
