    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nitrogen-fixing...

    The nitrogen-fixing clade consists of four orders of flowering plants: Cucurbitales, Fabales, Fagales and Rosales. [a] This subgroup of the rosids encompasses 28 families of trees, shrubs, vines and herbaceous perennials and annuals. The roots of many of the species host bacteria that fix nitrogen into compounds the plants can use. [4] [5]

  4. Plant nutrition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nutrition

    For example, nitrogen compounds comprise 40% to 50% of the dry matter of protoplasm, and it is a constituent of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. [9] It is also an essential constituent of chlorophyll. [10] In many agricultural settings, nitrogen is the limiting nutrient for rapid growth.

  5. Plant nutrients in soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nutrients_in_soil

    Nitrogen is the most critical element obtained by plants from the soil, to the exception of moist tropical forests where phosphorus is the limiting soil nutrient, [36] and nitrogen deficiency often limits plant growth. [37] Plants can use nitrogen as either the ammonium cation (NH 4 +) or the anion nitrate (NO 3 −).

  6. Garden roses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_roses

    Roses are relatively easy to grow compared to many large-flowered garden plants, with the main effort, apart from basic watering and feeding, going into the pruning that most varieties need, and the training that many do. [8] At least bush varieties are usually deadheaded, although some varieties are left for their decorative (and medicinal ...

  7. Hyperthermophile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperthermophile

    The most extreme hyperthermophiles live on the superheated walls of deep-sea hydrothermal vents, requiring temperatures of at least 90 °C for survival. An extraordinary heat-tolerant hyperthermophile is Geogemma barossii (Strain 121) , [ 5 ] which has been able to double its population during 24 hours in an autoclave at 121 °C (hence its name).

  8. Lithotroph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithotroph

    Lithoheterotrophs do not have the ability to fix carbon dioxide and must consume additional organic compounds in order to break them apart and use their carbon. Only a few bacteria are fully lithoheterotrophic. Lithoautotrophs are able to use carbon dioxide from the air as a carbon source, the same way plants do.

  9. Rosa rugosa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosa_rugosa

    Rosa rugosa (rugosa rose, beach rose, Japanese rose, Ramanas rose, or letchberry) is a species of rose native to eastern Asia, in northeastern China, Japan, Korea and southeastern Siberia, where it grows on beach coasts, often on sand dunes. [1] It is naturalized in much of Europe and parts of the United States and Canada. [2]
