Traditional nitrogen removal relies on the autotrophic nitrification and anaerobic
denitrification process. In the system, autotrophic microorganisms achieve nitrification under …

Nitrite is one of the most widely used curing ingredients in meat industries. Nitrites have
numerous useful applications in cured meats and a vital component in giving cured meats …

Both nitrogen deposition (ND) and microplastics (MPs) pose global change challenges. The
effects of MPs co-existing with ND on ecosystem functions are still largely unknown. Herein …

Despite the fact that heterotrophic nitrification was identified more than 100 years ago, the
biochemistry of heterotrophic nitrifiers is poorly known and their contribution to nitrification in …

Agriculture is responsible for over half of the input of reactive nitrogen (N) to terrestrial
systems; however improving N availability remains the primary management technique to …

Microorganisms are critical in mediating carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling processes in
soils. Yet, it has long been debated whether the processes underlying biogeochemical …

Soil nitrification, an important pathway of nitrogen transformation in ecosystems, produces
soil nitrate that influences net primary productivity, while the by‐product of nitrification …

Eutrophication has attracted extensive attention owing to its harmful effects to the organisms
and aquatic environment. Studies on the functional microorganisms with the ability of …

Plants use nitrate and ammonium as major nitrogen (N) sources, each affecting root
development through different mechanisms. However, the exact signaling pathways …

To maintain and increase crop yields, large amounts of nitrogen fertilizers have been
applied to farmland. However, the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of chemical fertilizer …
