Researchers are one step closer to understanding how some plants survive without nitrogen. Their work could eventually reduce ...

Gingko Bioworks is extending a partnership agreement with Bayer to continue developing microbial nitrogen fixation ...

As the Arctic Ocean loses its sea ice due to climate change, sunlight penetrates deeper into the water and encourages the ...

Nitrogen is essential for all life on Earth. In the global oceans however, this element is scarce, and nitrogen availability is therefore critical for the growth of marine life. Some bacteria found in ...

A team of scientists from Michigan State University has discovered a new and unusual source of nitrogen fixation, the process that converts the nitrogen in the atmosphere into a form that is used by ...

By the beginning of June this year, approximately 38 million tons of Sargassum drifted towards the coasts of the Caribbean ...

The marine nitrogen cycle is crucial to sustaining ocean productivity, with biological nitrogen fixation representing a primary mechanism by which inert atmospheric nitrogen is converted into ...

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 ...

The Arctic Ocean, once locked in a vault of thick, old ice, now is transforming at lightspeed. Temperatures there are increasing at up to four times the rate of the planet overall, melting sea ice ...

DAVIS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Mosaic Company and BioConsortia, Inc. have entered into a collaboration to develop and launch nitrogen-fixing microbial products for corn, wheat and other major non ...

Nitrogen fixation was measured in the water column of Lake Mize, Florida, a highly colored, small, deep lake, and in a variety of lacustrine sediments, by the acetylene reduction technique. A ...
