The influence of tropical grass species on soil nitrification and denitrification across savanna ecosystems

open access: yesGeoderma
Although limited by nutrient-poor soils primary productivity in certain humid savannas can be as high as in tropical forests. This high productivity can be partly attributed to the ability of certain perennial grasses (Poaceae) to inhibit nitrification ...

Biological Nitrification Inhibition (BNI) Potential in Sorghum

open access: yes, 2009
The biological oxidation of ammonia (i.e. nitrification), results in the transformation of relatively immobile NH4+ into a highly mobile NO3-, which is vulnerable to losses through leaching and denitrification, resulting in low nitrogen-use efficiency in agricultural systems.

Combining abilities and quantitative inheritance of sorgoleone exudation in Sorghum bicolor

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 64, Issue 6, Page 3219-3230, November/December 2024.
Abstract Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) has the ability to inhibit the conversion of ammonium to nitrate (biological nitrification inhibition [BNI]) in the rhizosphere, which in turn prevents the loss of bioavailable nitrogen. Sorgoleone is a lipidic compound secreted by sorghum root hairs and is responsible for roughly 60% of BNI activity in sorghum ...

Bivalent and bitopic ligands of the opioid receptors: The prospects of a dual approach

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 2545-2599, November 2024.
Abstract Opioid receptors belonging to the class A G‐protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the targets of choice in the treatment of acute and chronic pain. However, their on‐target side effects such as respiratory depression, tolerance and addiction have led to the advent of the ‘opioid crisis’.

Biological Nitrification Inhibition by Australian Tussock Grass and Its Impact on the Rhizosphere Ammonia-Oxidizing Microbiome

open access: yesGrasses
Certain plant species have developed the ability to express biological nitrification inhibition (BNI), suppressing the activity of nitrifying microbes and thereby reducing the conversion of ammonium to nitrate.

Biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) in wheat for climate adaptation in acidic and alkaline soils

open access: yes
Anthropogenic disturbances to nitrogen (N) cycling, particularly through agricultural N use, have intensified nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions. Developing wheat lines with biological nitrification inhibition (BNI) is a promising strategy to reduce such emissions.

Advancing effective methods for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions from rice (Oryza sativa L.) fields

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 3, Issue 4, October 2024.
Abstract The implications of global warming present significant threats to both crop productivity and environmental sustainability. The global population greatly depends on rice as a staple food, contributing significantly to global warming and agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Agricultural soils play a crucial role in the release and uptake

The Nitrobacter-denitrifiers ratio in soil indicates nitrate export risk to streams in temperate forest catchments

open access: yesEcological Indicators
The influence of forest tree species and their mineral nitrogen (N) uptake strategies on soil N cycling and its subsequent impact on stream nitrate concentrations remains poorly understood. We measured soil (de)nitrification, key (de)nitrifier abundances,

A Review of Plant-Mediated and Fertilization-Induced Shifts in Ammonia Oxidizers: Implications for Nitrogen Cycling in Agroecosystems

open access: yesLand
Nitrogen (N) cycling in agroecosystems is a complex process regulated by both biological and agronomic factors, with ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) playing pivotal roles in nitrification.

Application of plant residues in combination with nitrogen fertilizer to improve soil N availability, enhance nitrogen utilization efficiency (NUE) and grain productivity in tropical rice paddies

open access: yesDiscover Soil
In agricultural environments, nitrification inhibitors (NIs), both synthetic and biological, are widely used to reduce nitrogen (N) losses through various mechanisms.
