The concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere has been increasing
since the beginning of the industrial revolution. Nitrous oxide (N2O) is one of the mightiest …

Oxidation of ammonia to nitrite by bacteria and archaea is responsible for global emissions
of nitrous oxide directly and indirectly through provision of nitrite and, after further oxidation …

Clarifying the response of soil microbial communities and their potential functions during
succession is of great significance for understanding the biogeochemical processes and the …

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 …

Nitrifier denitrification is the reduction of nitrite (NO 2−) by ammonia-oxidizing bacteria. This
process may account for up to 100% of nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions from ammonium (NH …

Grazing lands support the livelihoods of millions of people across nearly one‐half of the
globe. Soils are the backbone of stability and resilience in these systems. To determine …

Despite being some of the most important crops globally, there has been limited research on
forages when compared with cereals, fruits, and vegetables. This review summarizes the …

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 …

Increasing biodiversity is an important issue in more secure and sustainable agriculture.
Diversified systems are more resilient to climate change, environmental stresses and …

Nitrification is the microbial conversion of reduced forms of nitrogen (N) to nitrate (NO3−),
and in fertilized soils it can lead to substantial N losses via NO3− leaching or nitrous oxide …
