Activitatea respiratorie în nodozitățile unor soiuri de soia (Glycine max (l.) merrill.) pe fondal de deficit hidric

Respiratory activity of the nodules and quantitative parameters of physiological importance of some soybean varieties (number, fresh and dry biomass, water content) were determined in eight indigenous Glycine max varieties. It was established that the maintenance of respiratory activity of rhizobacteria in nodules under dehydration conditions positively correlates with higher water content in nodule cells, while the intensity of respiration in nodules depends on the activity of rhizobacteria and varies significantly and distinctly in genotypes with different productivity and resistance to water stress.
