Biological Nitrogen Fixation and Nitrogen Accumulation in Peatlands [PDF]
Peatlands cover about 3% of the Earth’s surface and are regarded as a vital carbon (C) pool and sink. The formation of peatland is supported by continuously supplied nitrogen (N) but the sources of this N remain unclear.

A CRISPR interference system for engineering biological nitrogen fixation [PDF]
A grand challenge for the next century is in facing a changing climate through bioengineering solutions. Biological nitrogen fixation, the globally consequential, nitrogenase-catalyzed reduction of atmospheric nitrogen to bioavailable ammonia, is a vital

Enhancing Biological Nitrogen Fixation Through Diverse Pasture Swards [PDF]
Regenerative agricultural practices emphasize the use of diverse pasture species within sustainable agriculture production systems. The inclusion of a range of legume species in diverse pasture swards is likely to increase biological N fixation (BNF ...

Glucose addition in natural forest soils has higher biological nitrogen fixation capacity than other types of soils [PDF]
Land use changes soil microbial and chemical properties, but the mechanism of biological nitrogen fixation under different land use patterns is rarely reported, so we used four types of soil: Natural forest soil (NS), healthy banana soil (HS), diseased ...

Depth-dependent variability of biological nitrogen fixation and diazotrophic communities in mangrove sediments [PDF]
Background Nitrogen-fixing prokaryotes (diazotrophs) contribute substantially to nitrogen input in mangrove sediments, and their structure and nitrogen fixation rate (NFR) are significantly controlled by environmental conditions.
