SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY
INTERPRET THE DATA The nitrogen-fixing bacterium Rhizobium infects the roots of some plant species, forming a mutualism in which the bacterium provides nitrogen and the plant provides carbohydrates. Scientists measured the 12-week growth of one such plant species (Acacia irrorata) when infected by six different Rhizobium strains. (a) Graph the data. (b) Interpret your graph.
| Rhizobium strain | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
| Plant mass (g) | 0.91 | 0.06 | 1.56 | 1.72 | 0.14 | 1.03 |
| Data from J. J. Burdon et al~ Variation In the effectiveness of symbiotic associations between native rhizobia and temperate Australian Acacia: Within-species interactions, Journal of Applied Ecology 36:398-408 (1999). | ||||||
| Note: Without Rhizobium, after 12 Weeks, Acacia plants have a mass of about 0.1 g. | ||||||
