title: [Effect of plant illumination and humidity on nitrogen fixation in the phyllosphere].
abstract: The object of this work was to study the effect of illumination and humidity of air on the activity of nitorgenase in epiphytic microorganisms from the phyllosphere of timothy. An increase in humidity and illumination stimulated nitrogen fixation, apparently due to a higher rate of photosynthesis in the plants and of transport of the leaf excretion products.
