Dinitrogen(N_(2))fixed by a group of prokaryotes(diazotrophs)is the dominant process adding bioavailable nitrogen into the ocean.Although it has been intensively studied how N_(2) fixation is controlled by resources(b...

The diazotrophic community in biological soil crusts(biocrusts)is the key supplier of nitrogen in dryland.To date,there is still limited information on how biocrust development influences the succession of diazotrophi...

Many insects feed on a low‐nitrogen diet,and the origin of their nitrogen supply is poorly understood.It has been hypothesized that some insects rely on nitrogen‐fixing bacteria(diazotrophs)to supplement their diets...

Mountain systems are unique for studying the responses of species distribution and diversity to environmental changes along elevational gradients.It is well known that free-living diazotrophic microorganisms are impor...
Biological nitrogen fixation is a very valuable alternative to nitrogen fertilizer. This process will be discussed in the “Biological Nitrogen Fixation” book. A wide array of free-living and associative nitrogen fix...
Three soils with different Electrolytic Conductivity (EC) from the former Lake Texcoco (soil with low EC 1.2 dS·m-1, medium with EC 83.1 - 107.8 dS·m-1, and high with EC 137.3 - 152.5 dS•m...
The effect of diazotrophs and chemical fertilizers on yield attributing characters and economics of okra cultivation was evaluated. Application of highest dose of NPK @100% in combination with vermicompost (5 t ha-1) ...
An experiment was conducted on Catharanthus roseus to study the effect of seed treatments with native diazotrophs on its seedling growth and antioxidant enzyme activities. The treatments had significant influence on v...
