उत्तर

Pseudomonas

Explanation:

  1. Pseudomonas is a common soil bacterium but does not fix atmospheric nitrogen.
  2. Nostoc, Anabaena, and Rhizobium are nitrogen-fixing organisms that convert atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into usable forms for plants.

Hence, Pseudomonas is not a nitrogen-fixing organism.
