Inoculation of sugarcane with diazotrophic bacteria [PDF]
The sugarcane industry, a strategic crop in Brazil, requires technological improvements in production efficiency to increase the crop energy balance. Among the various currently studied alternatives, inoculation with diazotrophic bacteria proved to be a technology with great potential. In this context, the efficiency of a mixture of bacterial inoculant

Ambiguous controls on simulated diazotrophs in the world oceans
AbstractNitrogen fixers, or diazotrophs, play a key role in the nitrogen and carbon cycle of the world oceans. Diazotrophs are capable of utilising atmospheric dinitrogen which is a competitive advantage over generally faster growing ordinary phytoplankton in nitrogen-depleted conditions in the sun-lit surface ocean.

Table_2_Seasonal and spatial patterns in diazotroph community composition at Station ALOHA.xlsx
Dinitrogen (N2) fixation is carried out by specialized microbes, called diazotrophs, and is a major source of nitrogen supporting primary production in oligotrophic oceans.

Giant phytoplankton revealed by in situ imaging
Abstract Deployment of an autonomous Zooglider in the western Mediterranean Sea revealed the presence of long phytoplankton chains attaining maximum lengths of 6.4–10.4 mm suspended in situ. Elongate chains included the diatoms Guinardia, Proboscia, two other diatom morphologies, and solitary filaments of the cyanobacterium Trichodesmium. Most elongate

Abstract Unicellular diazotrophic cyanobacteria contribute up to ~50% of marine N2 fixation, and Crocosphaera watsonii, characterized by high phycoerythrin (PE) content, is among one of the key species in tropical and subtropical oceans. Although recent observations have revealed heterogeneous N2 fixation activity within C.

The apparently obligate symbiosis between the diazotroph Candidatus Atelocyanobacterium thalassa (UCYN-A) and its haptophyte host, Braarudosphaera bigelowii, has recently been found to fix dinitrogen (N2) in polar waters at rates (per cell) comparable to

Abstract Soil microbial biomass (MB) generally exhibits a narrower C:N than soil organic matter (SOM), creating a stoichiometric discrepancy hypothesized to be reconciled in part by C‐ and N‐acquiring enzyme activities. We used soils from an at‐equilibrium long‐term experiment to evaluate the degree to which MB C:N plasticity and enzyme activities ...

Bleaching forces coral’s heterotrophy on diazotrophs and Synechococcus [PDF]
Abstract Coral reefs are threatened by global warming, which disrupts the symbiosis between corals and their photosynthetic symbionts (Symbiodiniaceae), leading to mass coral bleaching. Planktonic diazotrophs or dinitrogen (N2)-fixing prokaryotes are abundant in coral lagoon waters and could be an alternative nutrient source for corals ...
