Because of the scarcity of suitable carbon and energy sources for these organisms, their contribution to global nitrogen fixation rates is generally considered minor. However, a recent study in ...

The major transformations of nitrogen are nitrogen fixation, nitrification, denitrification, anammox, and ammonification (Figure 1). The transformation of nitrogen into its many oxidation states ...

The introduction of N-Finity is an extension of Nutrien’s “purpose-built approach” to biologicals, and it brings three ways ...

For years, attempts have therefore been made to transfer the natural nitrogen fixation in bacteria and archaea to crops. The enzyme nitrogenase is responsible for the binding of nitrogen. One of ...

Scientists from member organisations of the WA Agricultural Research Collaboration (WAARC) have developed the world’s first cultivar of the legume pasture species, Trigonella balansae, offering a ...

Nitrogen fixation by soybean decreases exponentially as N application rate increases, such that application of 45 lb/ac N can lead to a 40% or greater reduction in N fixation over the maximum ...
