Engineering nitrogen-fixing symbiosis in cereals

Nitrogen is essential for many aspects of plant growth, including the biosynthesis of proteins, chlorophyll and nucleic acids. Earth's atmosphere is 78% nitrogen gas, but only members of one family of plants, the legumes, can form symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria to harness this vast resource. Andy Breakspear tells us how these relationships can be engineered into other species, such as cereals, to boost crop yield and reduce the need for fertiliser application.
