Coral reefs are known for being highly productive ecosystems in oligotrophic oceans, which is commonly referred to as the Darwin’s Paradox. Nitrogen is an essential component of organisms, but it limits primary productivity in most euphotic ocean ...

Effects of Selected Diazotrophs on Maize Growth [PDF]
Laboratory, greenhouse, and field experiments were conducted at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa in the 2010/2011 and 2011∖2012 seasons to study the effects of eight strains of diazotrophic bacteria on the growth and yield of maize. Maize seeds were treated with Bacillus megaterium (V16), Pseudomonas sp.

A Simple in situ Assay to Assess Plant-Associative Bacterial Nitrogenase Activity
Assessment of plant-associative bacterial nitrogen (N) fixation is crucial for selection and development of elite diazotrophic inoculants that could be used to supply cereal crops with nitrogen in a sustainable manner.

DataSheet_1_Cyanobacterial Diazotroph Distributions in the Western South Atlantic.docx
Inputs of new nitrogen by cyanobacterial diazotrophs are critical to ocean ecosystem structure and function. Relative to other ocean regions, there is a lack of data on the distribution of these microbes in the western South Atlantic. Here, the abundance

Soil nitrogen (N) is a renewable resource of N fixed by free-living N fixation (FLNF) diazotrophs. Thus, understanding the microbial driving mechanism of FLNF activity can aid in the optimization of N input.

Lipopolysaccharides in diazotrophic bacteria [PDF]
Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) is a process in which the atmospheric nitrogen (N2) is transformed into ammonia (NH3) by a select group of nitrogen-fixing organisms, or diazotrophic bacteria. In order to furnish the biologically useful nitrogen to plants, these bacteria must be in constant molecular communication with their host plants.
