Biotic–Abiotic Hybrid Strategies for Photosynthetic Nitrogen Fixation and Green Ammonia Synthesis

ChemistryEurope, Volume 4, Issue 4, April 2026.
Biotic‐abiotic photosynthetic systems integrate light‐harvesting semiconductors with nitrogenase's selective N2 reduction under ambient conditions, offering a sustainable alternative to conventional ammonia synthesis. Advancing rational interface design, efficient energy‐reaction coupling, and system integration is critical to realizing scalable, solar‐

The Application of Carbon Dots in Crops for Sustainable Agriculture

ChemistryEurope, Volume 4, Issue 2, February 2026.
Carbon dots serve as versatile nanoagents across the crop life cycle. They promote plant growth and photosynthesis, enhance resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses, aid in postharvest preservation, and enable sensitive detection of contaminants.

Impact of Copper on the Physiology and Transcriptome of Methylosinus Trichosporium OB3b Grown on Either Methane or Methanol

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2026.
Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b can grow on methanol in the absence but not presence of copper due: (1) overgeneration of reducing power from methanol oxidation; (2) formate accumulation leading to acidification of the growth medium and inactivation of formate dehydrogenase; and (3) lack of expression of potential oxidative stress defence genes ...

The Production of Gram-positive Variants by Azotobacter chroococcum [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1957
SUMMARY: Cultures of Azotobacter chroococcum isolated by four independent operators regularly produced Gram-positive forms, from which typical cultures of A. chroococcum were recovered under controlled conditions. This observation appears to confirm those of earlier workers, and is in accordance with the theory that the aerobic and anaerobic nitrogen ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Plant Growth–Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) in Biofertilization and Disease Suppression of Crops

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are beneficial soil bacteria that colonize the rhizosphere and enhance plant growth through direct and indirect mechanisms, including nutrient solubilization, phytohormone production, suppression of phytopathogens, and activation of plant defense mechanisms.

Formation of Fragile Cysts by a Strain of Azotobacter Chroococcum [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1969
SUMMARY: A strain of Azotobacter chroococcum (designated A. chroococcum NTS) which produces fragile cysts was isolated from soil. Fragility of the cysts was measured by ultrasonic treatment and compared to the fragility of cysts of a typical strain of A. chroococcum.
