Potential for biological nitrification inhibition to reduce nitrification and N2O emissions in pasture crop–livestock systems

Animal, 2013
Agriculture and livestock production systems are two major emitters of greenhouse gases. Methane with a GWP (global warming potential) of 21, and nitrous oxide (N2O) with a GWP of 300, are largely emitted from animal production agriculture, where ...

A DO- and pH-Based Early Warning System of Nitrification Inhibition for Biological Nitrogen Removal Processes

Sensors, 2012
In Korea, more than 80% of municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) with capacities of 500 m3·d−1 or more are capable of removing nitrogen from wastewater through biological nitrification and denitrification processes.

Improved Nitrogen Use Efficiency and Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Agricultural Soils as Producers of Biological Nitrification Inhibitors

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Based on an analysis of the current situation of nitrogen fertiliser application, it is suggested that improving the nitrogen utilisation efficiency of crops is an important means of promoting the sustainable development of agriculture and realises the ...

Intra‐ and inter‐annual variability of nitrification in the rhizosphere of field‐grown bioenergy sorghum

GCB Bioenergy, 2022
Biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) and plant–microbe competition for ammonium (NH4+) by sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) have the potential to suppress nitrification, reducing nitrate (NO3−) and nitrous oxide (N2O) production for more ...

In silico evaluation of plant nitrification suppression effects on agroecosystem nitrogen loss

Ecosphere, 2022
Nitrification regulates the potential for nitrogen (N) loss from ecosystems because it converts ammonium to nitrate, which is susceptible to leaching and gaseous emissions.

Short‐term impact of fire on the total soil microbial and nitrifier communities in a wet savanna

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Savannas are characterized by the coexistence of grasses and trees. Fires are critical for their coexistence, because they decrease the survival of tree seedlings and saplings and their recruitment to the adult stage.

Syringic acid from rice roots inhibits soil nitrification and N2O emission under red and paddy soils but not a calcareous soil

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Syringic acid (SA) is a novel biological nitrification inhibitor (BNIs) discovered in rice root exudates with significant inhibition of Nitrosomonas strains.

Biological nitrification inhibition by root exudates of native species, Hibiscus splendens and Solanum echinatum [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
Australian native species grow competitively in nutrient limited environments, particularly in nitrogen (N) limited soils; however, the mechanism that enables this is poorly understood.

Effects of biological nitrification inhibitors on nitrogen use efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions in agricultural soils: A review

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
To maintain and increase crop yields, large amounts of nitrogen fertilizers have been applied to farmland. However, the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of chemical fertilizer remains very low, which may lead to serious environmental problems, including ...
