Deep Into Oceanic N2 Fixation

Enhancing Non-symbiotic N2 Fixation in Agriculture

Much of the demand for nitrogen (N) in cereal cropping systems is met by using N fertilisers, but the cost of production is increasing and there are also environmental concerns. This has led to a growing interest in exploring other sources of N such as biological N2 fixation. Non-symbiotic N2 fixation (by free-living bacteria in soils or associated with the rhizosphere) has the potential to mee...

N1,N1,N2,N2-Tetramethyl-N1,N2-bis(sulfo)ethane-1,2-diaminium chloride as a highly efficient catalyst for synthesis of some nitrogen- and oxygen-containing heterocyclic compounds

In this research, a Brønsted acidic ionic liquid namely N1,N1,N2,N2-tetramethyl-N1,N2-bis(sulfo)ethane-1,2-diaminium chloride {[TMBSED][Cl]2} was employed as a highly efficient catalyst for the solvent-free production of some nitrogen- and oxygen-containing heterocyclic compounds including: (i) polyhydroquinolines (from arylaldehydes, dimedone, β-ketoesters and ammonium acetate), (ii) 3,4-dihyd...

Association of transpiration efficiency with N2 fixation of peanut under early season drought

Peanut is grown mostly in rainfed areas where drought is a recurring problem. Peanut genotypes with high transpiration efficiency (TE) use less water and produced yield better under drought conditions. Specific leaf area and SPAD chlorophyll meter reading are used as surrogate traits for TE. N2 fixation (NF) is also used as a surrogate trait for yield under drought. The objective of this study ...
