On nitrogen fixation and preferential remineralization of phosphorus [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2012 Regional and global nitrogen fixation rates are often estimated from geochemical tracers related to N* (= NO3− − 16PO43−). However the patterns of this tracer reflect the influence of numerous processes including nitrogen fixation, denitrification, remineralization of organic matter, variable stoichiometry, atmospheric deposition and physical transport.

Miscanthus sinensis dominates in Andosol through strong phosphorus acquisition that enhances water-use efficiency and nitrogen fixation [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceAndosol was unsuitable for crop production without large inputs of phosphorus fertilizer due to high levels of active aluminum making phosphorus insoluble.

Phosphorus Fixation in the Sludge Treatment System of a Biological Phosphorus Removal Process
Water Science and Technology, 1991 One of the major problems connected with the biological phosphorus removal process is that the phosphorus absorbed by the activated sludge may be released if the sludge is handled incorrectly, and this makes it difficult to treated sewage efficiently.

Nitrogen Fixation by White Lupin under Phosphorus Deficiency [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2006 White lupin is highly adapted to growth in a low-P environment. The objective of the present study was to evaluate whether white lupin grown under P-stress has adaptations in nodulation and N2 fixation that facilitate continued functioning.Nodulated plants were grown in silica sand supplied with N-free nutrient solution containing 0 to 0.5 mm P.

Investigation of the Role of Phosphorus in Symbiotic Dinitrogen Fixation [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1987 The interactive effects of phosphorus supply and combined nitrogen (nitrate) on dry matter and nitrogen accumulation by nodulated soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) plants, and the relative effects of phosphorus supply on nodule number, mass, and function in comparison to host plant growth were used to investigate the role of phosphorus in symbiotic ...

Nitrogen fixation in the western English Channel (NE Atlantic Ocean) [PDF]
, 2009 In temperate Atlantic waters (18.8 to 20.1°C), biological nitrogen fixation has beendemonstrated by 2 independent measurements: 15N-N2 incorporation and nifH identification in theDNA and expressed messenger RNA (mRNA).

Symbiosis revisited: phosphorus and acid buffering stimulate N2 fixation but not Sphagnum growth [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2017 In pristine Sphagnum-dominated peatlands, (di)nitrogen (N2) fixing (diazotrophic) microbial communities associated with Sphagnum mosses contribute substantially to the total nitrogen input, increasing carbon sequestration. The rates of symbiotic nitrogen
