Heterotrophic Foraminifera Capable of Inorganic Nitrogen Assimilation [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Nitrogen availability often limits biological productivity in marine systems, where inorganic nitrogen, such as ammonium is assimilated into the food web by bacteria and photoautotrophic eukaryotes.

Root-Knot-Nematode-Encoded CEPs Increase Nitrogen Assimilation [PDF]

Life, 2023
C-terminally encoded peptides (CEPs) are plant developmental signals that regulate growth and adaptive responses to nitrogen stress conditions. These small signal peptides are common to all vascular plants, and intriguingly have been characterized in ...

Comparing field and lab quantitative stable isotope probing for nitrogen assimilation in soil microbes [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Soil microbial communities play crucial roles in nutrient cycling and can help retain nitrogen in agricultural soils. Quantitative stable isotope probing (qSIP) is a useful method for investigating taxon-specific microbial growth and utilization of ...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa modulates both Caenorhabditis elegans attraction and pathogenesis by regulating nitrogen assimilation [PDF]

Nature Communications
Detecting chemical signals is important for identifying food sources and avoiding harmful agents. Like many animals, C. elegans use olfaction to chemotax towards their main food source, bacteria.

Plant Nitrogen Assimilation: A Climate Change Perspective [PDF]

Plants
Of all the essential macronutrients necessary for plant growth and development, nitrogen is required in the greatest amounts. Nitrogen is a key component of important biomolecules like proteins and has high nutritive importance for humans and other ...

Transcriptome analysis of nitrogen assimilation preferences in Burkholderia sp. M6-3 and Arthrobacter sp. M7-15 [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionAmmonium (NH4+) and nitrate (NO3−) are the two main forms of inorganic nitrogen (N) that exist in soil and both can be absorbed and utilized by plants.

Differential Responses of Nitrate/Ammonium Use to Bicarbonate Supply in Two Brassicaceae Species under Simulated Karst Habitat

Agronomy, 2022
In the karst habitats with nitrate-abundant and ammonium-rare soil, the bicarbonate supply plays a crucial role in both inorganic carbon and nitrogen assimilation in various plant species.

Dissolved Nitrogen Acquisition in the Symbioses of Soft and Hard Corals With Symbiodiniaceae: A Key to Understanding Their Different Nutritional Strategies?

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Nitrogen is one of the limiting nutrients for coral growth and primary productivity. Therefore, the capacity of different associations between corals and their algal symbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) to efficiently exploit the available nitrogen sources will ...
