1. Drought Tolerant Legumes

   Linked via "bacteroid cells"

   Drought tolerance in legumes is intrinsically linked to their symbiotic relationship with rhizobia. Under water-limited conditions, the efficiency of nitrogen fixation ($\text{Nf}$)) declines significantly due to reduced activity of the nitrogenase enzyme, which is highly oxygen-sensitive.
   Certain symbiotic strains, such as Bradyrhizobium japonicum var. Xerophilum, exhibit enhanced survival during prolonged desiccation cycles not through [sporulation](/entries/sporulatio…
