Modeling biological nitrogen fixation in global natural terrestrial ecosystems [PDF]
Biological nitrogen fixation plays an important role in the global nitrogen cycle. However, the fixation rate has been usually measured or estimated at a particular observational site.

Measures to achieve a stable farming system in sustainable agriculture – a short review
Zrównoważony system rolny jest najlepszym sposobem na zaspokojenie potrzeb dzisiejszych i przyszłych pokoleń. W systemie tym wielkość plonu wzrasta wraz z zastosowaniem upraw międzyrzędowych, poprzez wyższy współczynnik wzrostu roślin, redukcję nasion ...

Introgression of a Danbaekkong high-protein allele across different genetic backgrounds in soybean
Soybean meal is a major component of livestock feed due to its high content and quality of protein. Understanding the genetic control of protein is essential to develop new cultivars with improved meal protein.

Evolution of Photosynthesis and Biospheric Oxygenation Contingent Upon Nitrogen Fixation? [PDF]
How photosynthesis by Precambrian cyanobacteria oxygenated Earth's biosphere remains incompletely understood. Here it is argued that the oxic transition, which took place between approximately 2.3 and 0.5 Gyr ago, required a great proliferation of cyanobacteria, and this in turn depended on their ability to fix nitrogen via the nitrogenase enzyme ...

Plasma-fixated nitrogen as fertilizer for turf grass [PDF]
We investigated the use of plasma-fixated nitrogen, which produces nitrates (NO3-) in water, as a possible nitrogen fertilizer for recreational turf such as ryegrass and bentgrass. Experiments were carried out to study the effects of nitrate concentration on growth, the further effects of adding phosphorous (P) and potassium (K) to the plasma nitrated ...

A secular increase in continental crust nitrogen during the Precambrian [PDF]
Recent work indicates the presence of substantial geologic nitrogen reservoirs in the mantle and continental crust. Importantly, this geologic nitrogen has exchanged between the atmosphere and the solid Earth over time. Changes in atmospheric nitrogen (i.e. atmospheric mass) have direct effects on climate and biological productivity. It is difficult to

Atmospheric nitrogen evolution on Earth and Venus [PDF]
Nitrogen is the most common element in Earth's atmosphere and also appears to be present in significant amounts in the mantle. However, its long-term cycling between these two reservoirs remains poorly understood. Here a range of biotic and abiotic mechanisms are evaluated that could have caused nitrogen exchange between Earth's surface and interior ...
