ABSTRACT Among the leguminous trees native to Uruguay, Parapiptadenia rigida (Angico), a Mimosoideae legume, is one of most promising species for agroforestry. Like many other legumes, it able establish symbiotic associations with rhizobia and belongs group known as nitrogen-fixing trees, which are major components agroforestry systems. Information about rhizobial symbionts this genus scarce, thus, aim work was identify characterize associated P. . A collection Angico-nodulating isolates...
Area planted with Eucalyptus spp. in Uruguay has largely increased the last fi fteen years, mainly through afforestation of grasslands. Such changes land use are known to affect soil properties, including acidity and exchangeable aluminum, decreased organic carbon content water retention capacity, as well enzyme activities. The low mineralization rate tree litter due its high C:N ratio is suggested be base properties. Our assumption was that 2-year period between grandis plantation canopy...
