Date Jul. 16, 1987.Rhizobia transformants that nodulate and fix nitrogen in non-legumes. The nodulated non-legume plants can be grown without nitrogenous fertilizer and have at least the same or higher protein content, dry matter content and nitrogen content than their non-nodulated counterparts which are fertilized by the addition of nitrogenous fertilizer. The straw remaining after harvesting the nodulated non-legumes is also high in protein content.
