The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Using cryo‐EM combined with biochemical and genetic approaches, we mapped the interaction surface between NifL and NifA to gain insights into the regulation of nitrogen fixation genes in A. vinelandii. Our findings suggest that NifL, a homolog of histidine kinases lacking phosphorylation activity, evolved to act as a steric block of NifA activity ...

Molecular Analysis of the Microbial Guild Fixing Nitrogen in Ricefield Soils in Missouri
Microbiology ResearchNon-symbiotic diazotrophic microbes are important contributors to global N budgets in cereal crops. Knowledge of the biogeography of the organisms in this functional guild increases our understanding of biological N fixation in diverse locations and ...

Possible association of diazotrophs with marine zooplankton in the Pacific Ocean
MicrobiologyOpen, 2016 Dinitrogen fixation, the biological reduction in N2 gas to ammonia contributes to the supply of new nitrogen in the surface ocean. To understand the diversity and abundance of potentially diazotrophic (N2 fixing) microorganisms associated with marine ...

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The urgent need for sustainable agriculture places biological nitrogen fixation at the forefront of current biotechnological research. Plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria play crucial roles in agriculture by enhancing nutrient absorption, regulating hormonal balance, and providing reduced nitrogen to plants. Among these, diazotrophic bacteria, such as

Phosphate solubilizing bacteria stimulate wheat rhizosphere and endosphere biological nitrogen fixation by improving phosphorus content [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Phosphate (P) availability often limits biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) by diazotrophic bacteria. In soil, only 0.1% of the total P is available for plant uptake.

Nodularia sp. nifH gene transcripts in the Baltic Sea proper [PDF]
Journal of Plankton Research, 2007 While bacterioplankton indisputably control vital biogeochemical paths in the cycling of carbon and nutrients in the world’s oceans, our knowledge about the functional and genetic diversity of bacterioplankton communities is negligible. In this thesis, molecular and more traditional microbiological methods were used to study the specific function of N2-

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Soybean is a critical source of protein and vegetable oil worldwide. Expanding its cultivation into salinity lands represents a promising strategy for increasing production; however, soil salinity severely limits soybean growth by disrupting physiological and metabolic homeostasis.

Molecular evidence for sediment nitrogen fixation in a temperate New England estuary [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Primary production in coastal waters is generally nitrogen (N) limited with denitrification outpacing nitrogen fixation (N2-fixation). However, recent work suggests that we have potentially underestimated the importance of heterotrophic sediment N2 ...
