Loss of Arctic sea ice has tipped the ocean from light-limited to nitrate-limited, starving plankton and the food chain stacked above them
Phytoplankton across most of the Arctic Ocean are now starving for nitrogen rather than struggling for light, a shift that ...
Scientists shed light on an unexpected partnership: A marine diatom and a bacterium that can account for a large share of nitrogen fixation in vast regions of the ocean. This symbiosis likely plays a ...
UC Davis researchers engineered wheat that encourages soil bacteria to convert atmospheric nitrogen into plant-usable fertilizer. By boosting a natural compound in the plant, the wheat triggers ...
As high-latitude soils warm, microbes in the soil change how they handle nutrients like nitrogen. Normally, these microbes are nitrogen recyclers, pulling it from the soil and turning it into ...
CAMBRIDGE, England & DETROIT--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cycle Group Holdings Limited (“Cycle”) is delighted to announce it has completed the acquisition of NASDAQ-listed Applied Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ...
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 ...
With each breath, four out of every five molecules we inhale are nitrogen. This colourless, odourless gas makes up nearly 80% of the air that sustains us – yet it plays no direct role in keeping us ...
But these are, for the most part, isolated instances. The real botanical champions of nitrogen fixation are plants that house bacteria in subterranean nodules produced by their roots. The function of ...

UC Davis scientists have developed wheat plants that can stimulate the production of their own fertilizer. (Getty) Scientists at the University of California, Davis, have developed wheat plants that ...
Nitrogen is vital for all known life. Yet most nitrogen on Earth is in the atmosphere as di-nitrogen gas, which many organisms can’t use. Fortunately, there are microbes that can tap into this ...
