Harnessing flavonoids to control probiotic function: in situ application of a naringenin-responsive genetic circuit

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Efforts to improve probiotics’ capabilities through synthetic biology have recently increased. Using naturally occurring plant-based compounds, such as flavonoids, as inputs of genetic circuits introduced in probiotics is a promising strategy to enhance ...

Combining ability of black common bean developed under a biological nitrogen fixation system [PDF]

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira
The objective of this work was to select parents and segregating populations of black common bean developed under a biological nitrogen fixation system. Twenty-eight segregating populations were obtained from complete diallel crosses among eight parents ...

Biological N2 fixation, C accumulation and water-use efficiency (δ13C) of chickpea grown in three different soil types: response to the addition of biochar from poultry litter and acacia

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2022
Adding biochar to soil can alter soil properties and thus affect plant growth; however, the effect of biochar on biological nitrogen fixation, carbon accumulation and water-use efficiency of chickpea in tropical soils is not fully understood.

Molybdenum supply and biological fixation of nitrogen by two Brazilian common bean cultivars

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental
The common bean has been considered to have low biological nitrogen fixation capacity; however, this process can be made more effective with molybdenum (Mo) supplementation.

Extracellular electron transfer drives ATP synthesis for nitrogen fixation by Pseudomonas stutzeri

open access: yesElectrochemistry Communications, 2023
Biological nitrogen fixation is a key step in the reduction of N2 to available nitrogen in the global nitrogen cycle. Pseudomonas stutzeri A1501 is an electroactive diazotroph and previous studies have shown that its nitrogen fixation performance is ...

FACTORS AFFECTING THE NITROGEN FIXATION IN THE Inga spp.-RHIZOBIA SYSTEM IN SHADE COFFEE PLANTATIONS

open access: yesTropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2023
Background. The results of a review on the factors that affect nitrogen fixation in the Inga-café system are presented. The nitrogen contribution that the Inga Miller tree genus provides to shade coffee plantations and the factors that affect its ...

Towards a comprehensive understanding of free-living nitrogen fixation

open access: yesCircular Agricultural Systems, 2021
Free-living nitrogen fixation (FNF) is a ubiquitous phenomenon that plays a modest role in the (N) economy of an ecosystem. However, sampling difficulties, methodological constraints and environmental controls have presented challenges for predicting the

Genome wide identification and characterization of nodulation related genes in Arachis hypogaea.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Nitrogen is an important plant nutrient that has a significant role in crop yield. Hence, to fulfill the needs of sustainable agriculture, it is necessary to improve biological nitrogen fixation in leguminous crops.

Quantifying the Impact of Climate Change on Marine Diazotrophy: Insights From Earth System Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Nitrogen fixation is a major source of new nitrogen to the ocean, supporting biological productivity in the large nitrogen-limited tropical oceans. In Earth System Models, the response of nitrogen fixation to climate change acts in concert with projected
