A few plants like legumes have the ability to fix nitrogen from the atmosphere with the help of nitrogen-fixing bacteria. A group of scientists has found a strain of nitrogen-fixing bacteria that can grow in root cells of all major crops. This will help the plants capture atmospheric nitrogen, convert atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia, and use the ammonia.
