Moss-cyanobacteria associations as biogenic sources of nitrogen in boreal forest ecosystems
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 The biological fixation of atmospheric nitrogen (N) is a major pathway for available N entering ecosystems. In N-limited boreal forests, a significant amount of N2 is fixed by cyanobacteria living in association with mosses, contributing up to 50 % to ...

UCYN-A/haptophyte symbioses dominate N2 fixation in the Southern California Current System. [PDF]
ISME Commun, 2021 The availability of fixed nitrogen (N) is an important factor limiting biological productivity in the oceans. In coastal waters, high dissolved inorganic N concentrations were historically thought to inhibit dinitrogen (N2) fixation, however, recent N2 ...

Systemic regulation of soybean nodulation and nitrogen fixation by nitrogen via isoflavones
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Nitrogen (N) inhibits soybean (Glycine max L.) nodulation and N2 fixation. Isoflavones secreted by soybean roots can stimulate signal transduction for symbiotic nodules, thus playing a key role in root nodule development and N2 fixation. The relationship

The conundrum of marine N2 fixation [PDF]
American Journal of Science, 2005 Over the last 30 years, immense progress has been made in understanding the global significance of marine nitrogen (N2) fixation. Development of enzymological, isotopic and molecular techniques for identifying N2 fixers and quantifying N2 fixation rates, as well as more frequent and extensive field campaigns have fuelled such progress.

Free atmospheric CO2 enrichment increased above ground biomass but did not affect symbiotic N2-fixation and soil carbon dynamics in a mixed deciduous stand in Wales [PDF]
, 2011 Through increases in net primary production (NPP), elevated CO2 is hypothesizes to increase the amount of plant litter entering the soil. The fate of this extra carbon on the forest floor or in mineral soil is currently not clear.

Symbioses between cyanobacterial communities and feather mosses in boreal forests and consequences for dinitrogen fixation [PDF]
, 2013 Feather moss-cyanobacteria associations, although still poorly understood, are recognised as essential for the regulation of nitrogen (N) input into N-limited ecosystems such as boreal forests due to their ability to carry out N2-fixation.

Benthic nitrogen fixation in Zostera marina meadows in an upwelling-influenced coastal lagoon
Ciencias Marinas, 2017 Dinitrogen (N2) fixation rates were determined in the phyllosphere and in sediments with and without the presence of eelgrass (Zostera marina) in San Quintín Bay, an upwelling-influenced coastal lagoon in the NE Pacific.
