Chemosynthetic alphaproteobacterial diazotrophs reside in deep-sea cold-seep bottom waters
Nitrogen (N)-fixing organisms, also known as diazotrophs, play a crucial role in N-limited ecosystems by controlling the production of bioavailable N. The carbon-dominated cold-seep ecosystems are inherently N-limited, making them hotspots of N fixation.

ABSTRACT Allelopathic rice is increasingly recognised as a promising strategy for sustainable weed management. Resistance to the herbicide quinclorac is widespread in barnyardgrass, but it remains unclear whether allelopathic rice exerts the same defence against herbicide‐susceptible and ‐resistant barnyardgrass. We conducted integrated transcriptomic,

Inoculation of diazotrophic bacteria in chicory [PDF]
ABSTRACT Inoculating crops with diazotrophic bacteria constitutes a feasible biotechnological tool to reduce or even avoid the use of nitrogen fertilizers and to improve the nutritional status of crops. However, the potential use of such technology is limited due to the lack of studies in diverse vegetable crops. We evaluated the production of chicory (

Enhanced CO2 Coordinates the Spatial Recruitment of Diazotrophs in Rice Via Root Development
ABSTRACT Understanding the reciprocal interaction between root development and coadapted beneficial microbes in response to elevated CO2 (eCO2) will facilitate the identification of nutrient‐efficient cultivars for sustainable agriculture. Here, systematic morphological, anatomical, chemical and gene expression assays performed under low‐nitrogen ...

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

Diazotrophic cyanobacteria in planktonic food webs
Abstract Blooms of cyanobacteria are recurrent phenomena in coastal estuaries. Their maximum abundance coincides with the productive period of zooplankton and pelagic fish. Experimental studies indicate that diazotrophic, i.e. dinitrogen (N2)-fixing cyanobacterial (taxonomic order Nostocales) blooms affect zooplankton, as well as other phytoplankton.

ABSTRACT Bacteriophages impact soil bacteria through lysis, altering the availability of organic carbon and plant nutrients. However, the magnitude of nutrient uptake by plants from lysed bacteria remains unknown, partly because this process is challenging to investigate in the field.
