Biological nitrification inhibition in sorghum: the role of sorgoleone production [PDF]

open access: yesPlant and Soil, 2014
Nitrification and denitrification are the two most important processes that contribute to greenhouse gas emission and inefficient use of nitrogen. Suppressing soil nitrification through the release of nitrification inhibitors from roots is a plant function, and termed “Biological Nitrification Inhibition (BNI)”. We report here the role and contribution

Biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) activity in sorghum and its characterization [PDF]

open access: yesPlant and Soil, 2012
The ability to suppress soil nitrification through the release of nitrification inhibitors from plant roots is termed ‘biological nitrification inhibition’ (BNI). Here, we aimed at the quantification and characterization of the BNI function in sorghum that includes inhibitor production, their chemical identity, functionality and factors regulating ...

Biological nitrification inhibition by rice root exudates and its relationship with nitrogen‐use efficiency [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2016
Summary Microbial nitrification in soils is a major contributor to nitrogen (N) loss in agricultural systems. Some plants can secrete organic substances that act as biological nitrification inhibitors (BNIs), and a small number of BNIs have been identified and characterized. However, virtually no research has focused on the important food crop, rice (

Identification of several wheat landraces with biological nitrification inhibition capacity

Plant and Soil, 2016
Nitrification is the first step in several pathways that lead to losses of nitrogen from agricultural systems. Biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) refers to the ability of some plant species to release chemicals from their roots that inhibit microbial ammonia oxidation thereby decreasing nitrification rates.

Nitrogen transformations in modern agriculture and the role of biological nitrification inhibition

Nature Plants, 2017
The nitrogen (N)-use efficiency of agricultural plants is notoriously poor. Globally, about 50% of the N fertilizer applied to cropping systems is not absorbed by plants, but lost to the environment as ammonia (NH3), nitrate (NO3-), and nitrous oxide (N2O, a greenhouse gas with 300 times the heat-trapping capacity of carbon dioxide), raising ...

Genetic mitigation strategies to tackle agricultural GHG emissions: The case for biological nitrification inhibition technology [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Science, 2017
Accelerated soil-nitrifier activity and rapid nitrification are the cause of declining nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE) and enhanced nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from farming. Biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) is the ability of certain plant roots to suppress soil-nitrifier activity, through production and release of nitrification inhibitors. The

Can biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) genes from perennial Leymus racemosus (Triticeae) combat nitrification in wheat farming? [PDF]

open access: yesPlant and Soil, 2007
Using a recombinant luminescent Nitrosomonas europaea assay to quantify biological nitrification inhibition (BNI), we found that a wild relative of wheat (Leymus racemosus (Lam.) Tzvelev) had a high BNI capacity and releases about 20 times more BNI compounds (about 30 ATU g−1 root dry weight 24 h−1) than Triticum aestivum L. (cultivated wheat).

Biochemical and ecophysiological characterization of BNI (Biological Nitrification Inhibition) by Brachiaria humidicola

2021
Viele Savannen-Ökosysteme, insbesondere Brachiaria humidicola (syn. Urochloa humidicola) dominiertes Grasland, besitzen eine hohe N-Nutzungseffizienz, was auf eine allelopathische Hemmung der Nitrifikation im Boden zurückgeführt wird (engl. Biological Nitrification Inhibition - BNI).

Rice biological nitrification inhibition efficiency depends on plant genotype exudation rate

2023
Abstract Nitrification largely contributes to global nitrogen (N) fertiliser loss and nitrous oxide emissions in agricultural soils, including rice cultivation, Asia’s largest fertiliser consumer. One promising mitigation strategy to achieve greener agriculture involves biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) by ...
