title: Effect of light quality, anaerobiosis and glucose on nitrogen-fixation by the rice field cyanobacterium Aulosira fertilissima Ghose.
abstract: Anaerobiosis enhanced the nitrogenase activity of the rice field alga Aulosira fertilissima both in light and dark. The activity was maximum in white light, lesser in red, blue and green light and least in the dark. Glucose stimulated the activity both in light and dark.
