There are two types of bacteria, free-living and symbiotic. Example of free living nitrogen fixing bacteria include Azotobacter. The example of symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacteria includes Rhizobium. Rhizobium leguminosarum is a symbiotic bacterium which lives in symbiotic association with the legume plants and fixes atmospheric nitrogen.
