University of Delaware undergraduate student Spencer Toth was always interested in the environment and biology, so when she arrived at UD and realized that she could combine both of her passions by ...

Kula Bio introduces Kula‑NSP and Kula‑NextSP, shelf‑stable nitrogen‑fixing powders that bring biological innovation ...

Researchers at the University of East Anglia have discovered how nitrogen-fixing bacteria sense iron – an essential but deadly micronutrient. Some bacteria naturally fix nitrogen from the soil into a ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have uncovered a master transcriptional regulator that controls rhizobial symbiosis ...

The processes that govern the formation of symbiotic structures between nitrogen-fixing bacteria and legumes in the latter's roots remain largely a mystery to science, but researchers have recently ...

Nitrogen-fixing microbes can dramatically reduce the fertiliser-related emissions and pollution from farms. Nitrogen fertiliser plays an essential role in industrial agriculture, but it comes at a ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Agricultural practices contribute to climate change by releasing greenhouse gases such as nitrous oxide that are mainly derived from nitrogen ...

A new research initiative led by associate professor of bacteriology Betül Kaçar is positioned to transform agriculture and address some of the world’s most pressing ecological and economic challenges ...

The developmental regulators that confer the identity of N-fixing root nodules belong to a transcription factor family (LSH) more commonly associated with defining the shapes of stems, flowers and ...

A tiny protein tweak may unlock nitrogen-fixing super-crops that slash global fertilizer demand. Scientists discovered a small protein region that determines whether plants reject or welcome ...

Paulo Pagliari and other researchers at the University of Minnesota are trying to see if a bacteria can be used to reduce the amount of nitrogen needed to grow crops. Reducing nitrogen is important to ...
