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...
متن کاملEffect of glyphosate on symbiotic N2 fixation and nickel concentration in glyphosate-resistant soybeans
Decreased biological nitrogen fixation in glyphosate-resistant (GR) soybeans has been attributed directly to toxicity of glyphosate or its metabolites, to N2-fixing microorganisms. As a strong metal chelator, glyphosate could influence symbiotic N2 fixation by lowering the concentration of nickel (Ni) that is essential for the symbiotic microorganisms. Evaluation of different cultivars grown on...
متن کاملA single evolutionary innovation drives the deep evolution of symbiotic N2-fixation in angiosperms
Symbiotic associations occur in every habitat on earth, but we know very little about their evolutionary histories. Current models of trait evolution cannot adequately reconstruct the deep history of symbiotic innovation, because they assume homogenous evolutionary processes across millions of years. Here we use a recently developed, heterogeneous and quantitative phylogenetic framework to stud...

متن کاملMalic enzyme cofactor and domain requirements for symbiotic N2 fixation by Sinorhizobium meliloti.
The NAD(+)-dependent malic enzyme (DME) and the NADP(+)-dependent malic enzyme (TME) of Sinorhizobium meliloti are representatives of a distinct class of malic enzymes that contain a 440-amino-acid N-terminal region homologous to other malic enzymes and a 330-amino-acid C-terminal region with similarity to phosphotransacetylase enzymes (PTA). We have shown previously that dme mutants of S. meli...
