Biological nitrification inhibition by rice root exudates in two different soils of Uruguay
Rice root exudates can control nitrification by releasing biological nitrification inhibitors (BNIs), reducing nitrogen losses in agricultural soils. However, the inhibitory effect on nitrification and the abundance of ammonia oxidisers in different soil

Biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) in the tropical grass Brachiaria humidicola could reduce net nitrification rates and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions in soil. To determine the effect on gross nitrogen (N) transformation processes and N2O emissions,

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

The natural ability of plants to release chemical substances from their roots that have a suppressing effect on nitrifier activity and soil nitrification, is termed ‘biological nitrification inhibition’ (BNI). Though nitrification is one of the critical processes in the nitrogen cycle, unrestricted and rapid nitrification in agricultural systems can ...

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 ...

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 ...

Nitrogen dynamics as a function of pH in soil cultivated with brachiarias
Abstract Brachiaria production is an important segment in Brazil's agriculture, used as a forage or animal feed. Studying the influence of Brachiaria sp. on soil nitrogen (N) dynamics under different soil pH and amendment conditions is a critical research need.

ABSTRACT Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum [Desf.] Husnot) is cultivated globally and used to produce pasta, couscous, bulgur and other semolina products. With the growing world population and increasing food demand, it is pertinent to understand past trends in global food production to shape future endeavours.

Urochloa Grasses Swap Nitrogen Source When Grown in Association with Legumes in Tropical Pastures
The degradation of tropical pastures sown with introduced grasses (e.g., Urochloa spp.) has dramatic environmental and economic consequences in Latin America. Nitrogen (N) limitation to plant growth contributes to pasture degradation. The introduction of
