Rhizobium:
1. | lives as aerobe under free-living conditions with an operational nitrogenase that does not fix nitrogen |
2. | lives as anaerobe under free-living conditions with a non operational nitrogenase |
3. | lives as aerobe during nitrogen-fixing conditions with an operational nitrogenase |
4. | lives as anaerobe during nitrogen-fixing conditions with an operational nitrogenase |
