Abundance and diversity of endophytic and rhizospheric diazotrophs associated with rice roots from different rice rotation systems under field conditions
Biological nitrogen fixation contributes greatly to the sustainability of agroecosystems. However, more information is needed about the impact that...
-
Differential response of denitrifying and diazotrophic soil populations to short and long-term exposure of glyphosate and atrazine
Sustainable agriculture relies on the use of herbicides to preserve soil carbon and minimize disturbance to the soil structure. Glyphosate and...

Effects of biochar and chemical fertilizer amendment on diazotrophic abundance and community structure in rhizosphere and bulk soils
Diazotrophs carry out biological nitrogen (N) fixation process that replenishes available soil N; it is unclear how soil diazotrophic communities...
-
Biochar-induced changes in the soil diazotroph community abundance and structure in a peanut field trial
Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) can help replenish available nitrogen (N) in cropland and reduce the use of chemical N fertilizers, with...

Factors Controlling N2 Fixation
A range of factors can affect diazotrophs, their growth and physiological performance in the oceans. These include physical factors such as...
-
Marine N2 Fixation, Global Change and the Future
Long-term environmental changes, including those caused by climate change, are dynamic processes and, in the sea, multiple physical and chemical...
-
Biogeography of N2 Fixation in the Surface Ocean
Diazotrophs and N2 fixation are not homogenously distributed across the oceans, but have distinct patterns of rates, abundances and species...
-
Summary and Conclusions
N2 fixation plays a key role in the biogeochemical cycle of N in the marine environment just as it does in the terrestrial environment. N2 fixation...
