Plant Physiology 68:489-493 (1981) © 1981 American Society of Plant Biologists Utilization of Aldehydes and Alcohols by Soybean BacteroidsBoyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research, Ithaca, New York 14853 Aldehydes, alcohols and acids were tested for their ability to support acetylene reduction and oxygen consumption by Rhizobium japonicum bacteroids isolated from soybean nodules. Several alcohols and aldehydes increased acetylene reduction and oxygen uptake. This is consistent with the concept that the plant nodule cytosol can metabolize carbohydrate via anaerobic fermentative pathways.
