Turnover-Dependent Inactivation of the Nitrogenase MoFe-Protein at High pH [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Proton uptake accompanies the reduction of all known substrates by nitrogenase. As a consequence, a higher pH should limit the availability of protons as a substrate essential for turnover, thereby increasing the proportion of more highly reduced forms ...

Advancements in Alginate‐Based Biomaterials for Enhanced Skin Regeneration: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Alginate, a naturally occurring polysaccharide composed of β‐d‐mannuronate (M) and α‐l‐guluronate (G), has attracted widespread attention for skin regeneration applications due to its exceptional biocompatibility, biodegradability, and tunable physicochemical properties. Beyond its traditional role in maintaining a moist wound environment and providing

The Siderophore Metabolome of Azotobacter vinelandii [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2016
ABSTRACT In this study, we performed a detailed characterization of the siderophore metabolome, or “chelome,” of the agriculturally important and widely studied model organism Azotobacter vinelandii . Using a new high-resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) approach, we found over 35 ...

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

open access: yesInternational 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.

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Two New Biotechnological-Based Freeze-Dried Fertilizers for Sustainable Fe Deficiency Correction of Soybean Plants Grown in Calcareous Soils

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Currently, fertilization with synthetic chelates is the most effective agricultural practice to prevent iron (Fe) deficiencies in crops, especially in calcareous soils. Because these compounds are not biodegradable, they are persistent in the environment,

Characterization and effect of Azotobacter, Azospirillum and Pseudomonas associated with Ipomoea Batatas of Colombian Caribbean

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Biotecnología, 2017
The use of plant growth promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) is an alternative to replace chemical fertilizers for the cultivation of agricultural crops. The aim of this research was to search, selection and characterization of PGPR from the genus Azotobacter,

Modeling of nitrogen fixation and polymer production in the heterotrophic diazotroph Azotobacter vinelandii DJ

open access: yesMetabolic Engineering Communications, 2020
Nitrogen fixation is an important metabolic process carried out by microorganisms, which converts molecular nitrogen into inorganic nitrogenous compounds such as ammonia (NH3). These nitrogenous compounds are crucial for biogeochemical cycles and for the

Liebig Review: Legume–Rhizobium Symbiosis Under Selenium Fertilization: A Unique Dual Function in the Plant–Soil System

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 188, Issue 6, Page 861-872, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Selenium (Se) plays a vital role as a beneficial element in promoting the production of leguminous plants. It influences legume quality by improving crop nutritive value and contributing to human and animal health. Literature Review This review is timely, as there are gaps in understanding Se–rhizobia interactions in legumes, which ...
