Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas and the predominant ozone depleting
substance. The only enzyme known to reduce N2O is the nitrous oxide reductase, encoded …

Functional genes involved in nitrogen (N) cycling regulate soil nitrification, denitrification and
N 2 O emissions. However, the general patterns and variability of N functional genes in …

Denitrification is important for nitrogen balance in agricultural ecosystems. It is well
established that the abundance and structure of denitrifier are strongly influenced by …

Debate persists regarding the underlying factors influencing nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions
and their mechanisms of action in rice paddy soils. The aim of the present study was to …

Single-stage constructed wetlands (CWs) are characterized by a low potential for N removal.
Understanding the pathways regulating N cycling as well as their dependence on …

With the rapid development of industry, Cr has become one of the major heavy metal
pollutants in soil, severely impacting soil microecology, among which rhizosphere …

Background Copper dependent nitrite reductase, NirK, catalyses the key step in
denitrification, ie nitrite reduction to nitric oxide. Distinct structural NirK classes and …

This study coupled a landscape‐scale metagenomic survey of denitrification gene
abundance in soils with in situ denitrification measurements to show how environmental …

Denitrification is one of the main biological sources of N 2 O, a greenhouse gas. In paddies,
water flooding provides anaerobic soil conditions that can boost denitrification. In this work …

Defining response groups within N-related microbial communities is needed to predict land
management effect on soil N dynamics, but information on such response groups and …
