Anthropogenic impact on diazotrophic diversity in the mangrove rhizosphere revealed by nifH pyrosequencing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Diazotrophs in the mangrove rhizosphere play a major role in providing new nitrogen to the mangrove ecosystem and their composition and activity are strongly influenced by anthropogenic activity and ecological conditions.

Plant-Mediated Changes in Soil N-Cycling Genes during Revegetation of Copper Mine Tailings

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2017
Nitrogen limitation represents a major bottleneck during the revegetation of mine tailings. However, controls over key nitrogen-cycling genes in rhizospheric soils under differential vegetation management remain poorly understood.

Development of a PCR assay for the detection of nifH and nifD genes in indigenous photosynthetic bacteria. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Molybdenum (Mo) nitrogenases consist of two components: dinitrogenase reductase (encoded by nifH) and the dinitrogenase or MoFe protein (encoded by nifDK). Nitrogenase enzyme of photosynthetic bacteria is responsible for hydrogen production.

Expression of the Klebsiella pneumoniae nifH gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesEnzyme and Microbial Technology, 1987
Dinitrogenase reductase, a component of a complex and highly regulated prokaryotic enzyme, nitrogenase, is expressed in the eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A plasmid pH-ADH-1 was constructed that directs the expression of the Klebsiella pneumoniae nifH gene, encoding dinitrogenase reductase, from the yeast alcohol dehydrogenase I promoter.

Temporal dynamics of abundance and composition of nitrogen-fixing communities across agricultural soils.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundDespite the fact that the fixation of nitrogen is one of the most significant nutrient processes in the terrestrial ecosystem, a thorough study of the spatial and temporal patterns in the abundance and distribution of N-fixing communities has ...

Seasonal Shifts in Diazotrophs Players: Patterns Observed Over a Two-Year Time Series in the New Caledonian Lagoon (Western Tropical South Pacific Ocean)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Coastal and open ocean regions of the Western Tropical South Pacific ocean have been identified as a hotspot of N2 fixation. However, the environmental factors driving the temporal variability of abundance, composition, and activity of diazotrophs are ...

A novel strain D5 isolated from Acacia confusa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We isolated a novel strain D5 from nodules of Acacia confusa. Under strict sterile conditions the strain could successfully nodulate Acacia confusa, A. crassicarpa and A.

Relative abundance of nitrogen cycling microbes in coral holobionts reflects environmental nitrate availability

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Recent research suggests that nitrogen (N) cycling microbes are important for coral holobiont functioning. In particular, coral holobionts may acquire bioavailable N via prokaryotic dinitrogen (N2) fixation or remove excess N via denitrification activity.

nifH pyrosequencing reveals the potential for location-specific soil chemistry to influence N2-fixing community dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A dataset of 87 020 nifH reads and 16 782 unique nifH protein sequences obtained over 2 years from four locations across a gradient of agricultural soil types in Argentina were analysed to provide a detailed and comprehensive picture of the diversity ...

The oxygen‐sensing FixLJ represses nitrogen fixation in Rhodopseudomonas palustris in response to oxygen

open access: yesmLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Biological nitrogen fixation in symbiotic diazotrophs is subject to oxygen regulation by an oxygen‐sensing FixLJ two‐component system under micro‐oxic conditions. However, it remains unclear whether this mechanism is conserved in free‐living diazotrophs.
