Symbiotic relationships with Nitrogen-fixing Bacteria: Rhizobium bacteria normally inhabit the soil. Suggest why nodules are found on the stems of Sesbania? The roots of the Sesbania are often underwater or in flooded soils that do not contain much N2. Bacteria live best above the ground. Sesbania only use the nitrogen in the upper portion of the plant so they do not need to make nodules on their roots. Bacteria will drown under water.
