In this review we explore the biotic transformations of nitrogenous compounds that occur
during denitrification, and the factors that influence denitrifier populations and enzyme …

The priming effect (PE) is the short-term increase or decrease in the rate of soil organic
matter mineralization in response to a stimulus, such as the addition of carbon (C) and/or …

Biochar has been suggested to improve acidic soils and to mitigate greenhouse gas
emissions. However, little has been done on the role of biochar in ameliorating acidified …

Anaerobic ammonium oxidation coupled to iron (III) reduction, termed Feammox, is a newly
discovered nitrogen cycling process. However, little is known about the roles of electron …

Anaerobic ammonium oxidation coupled to iron (III) reduction (termed Feammox) with
dinitrogen, nitrite, or nitrate as the end-product is a recently discovered process of nitrogen …

Abstract The N2O: N2 product ratio of denitrification is negatively correlated with soil pH, but
the mechanisms involved are not clear. We compared soils from field experiments where the …

Amending agricultural soils with organic residues is frequently recommended to improve soil
fertility and to sequester carbon for counteracting global warming. However, such …

Nitrogen (N) fertilization in agricultural soils is the largest anthropogenic source of nitrous
oxide (N 2 O) emissions, but the underlying mechanism of the varied response of N 2 O …

Increasing investigations explore the effects of plastic pollutants on bacterial communities,
diversity, and functioning in various ecosystems. However, the impact of microplastics (MPs) …

Present-day knowledge on the regulatory biology of denitrification is based on studies of
selected model organisms. These show large variations in their potential contribution to …
