Team JKExamLibrary · Accepted Answer

Rhizobium is a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterium that forms root nodules in the roots of leguminous plants (like peas, beans, clover). Inside these nodules, the bacterium converts atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into ammonia (NH3), which the plant can use. In return, the plant provides the bacteria with carbohydrates and a protected environment. It significantly reduces the need for chemical nitrogen fertilizers.
