Cyanobacteria

Vedclass · Answer

(A) Cyanobacteria (such as Anabaena and Nostoc) are autotrophic microbes widely distributed in aquatic and terrestrial environments. In paddy fields,they serve as an important biofertilizer by fixing atmospheric nitrogen,which enriches the soil with nitrogenous compounds. While Azospirillum is also a biofertilizer,it is typically associated with grasses and cereal crops like maize and wheat,and Rhizobium is primarily associated with leguminous plants. Therefore,Cyanobacteria is the most characteristic biofertilizer for paddy fields.
