Potential of Phototrophic Purple Nonsulfur Bacteria to Fix Nitrogen in Rice Fields

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Biological nitrogen fixation catalyzed by Mo-nitrogenase of symbiotic diazotrophs has attracted interest because its potential to supply plant-available nitrogen offers an alternative way of using chemical fertilizers for sustainable agriculture ...

RESPONSE OF AZOLLA GROWTH AND NITROGENASE ACTIVITY TO SALINITY STRESS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Soil Sciences and Agricultural Engineering, 2006
A greenhouse experiment was carried out for 2 weeks to test the effect of different levels of NaCl on the growth and nitrogenase activity (ARA) of Azolla filicuiofdes.

Nitrogenase activity associated with codium species from New Zealand marine habitats [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
Nitrogenase activity, measured as acetylene reduction, was recorded at rates up to 1028 nmol.h \g * dry weight for Codium adhaerens (Cabr.) Ag. var. convolutum Dellow and Codium fragile (Sur.) Hariot subsp.

Nitrogen Fixation and Hydrogen Evolution by Sterically Encumbered Mo-Nitrogenase

open access: yes, 2023
The substrate-reducing proteins of all nitrogenases (MoFe, VFe, and FeFe) are organized as α2ß2(γ2) multimers with two functional halves. While their dimeric organization could afford improved structural stability of nitrogenases in vivo, previous ...

The influence of fertilisation and crop rotation on soil microbial characteristics in the long-term field experiment

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2009
Soils were sampled from the plots with four variants of fertilisation: Nil - without fertilisation, NPK - mineral fertilisation, FYM - farmyard manure, FYM + NPK - farmyard manure with mineral fertilisation, and two variants of crop rotation: field IV ...

Characterization of an M-Cluster-Substituted Nitrogenase VFe Protein

open access: yesmBio, 2018
The Mo- and V-nitrogenases are two homologous members of the nitrogenase family that are distinguished mainly by the presence of different heterometals (Mo or V) at their respective cofactor sites (M- or V-cluster).

Carbon monoxide production is not enhanced by nitrogenase activity [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2000
A diverse group of nitrogen-fixing bacteria and two heme degraders were grown with and without fixed nitrogen sources under oxic and suboxic conditions, with and without addition of heme-containing compounds. Several of the strains produced carbon monoxide (CO) under one or more of these conditions, but nitrogenase activity did not stimulate rates of ...

Selection of rhizobial strains differing in their nodulation kinetics under low temperature in four temperate legume species

open access: yesGrassland Research, 2023
Background Winter climate change including frequent freeze‐thaw episodes and shallow snow cover will have major impacts on the spring regrowth of perennial crops.

NifA is the master regulator of both nitrogenase systems in Rhodobacter capsulatus

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2019
Rhodobacter capsulatus fixes atmospheric nitrogen (N2) by a molybdenum (Mo)‐nitrogenase and a Mo‐free iron (Fe)‐nitrogenase, whose production is induced or repressed by Mo, respectively. At low nanomolar Mo concentrations, both isoenzymes are synthesized
