Atmospheric Nitrogen Fixation by Methane-oxidizing Bacteria.
Davis, J. B. (Socony Mobil Oil Co., Inc., Dallas, Tex.), V. F. Coty, and J. P. Stanley. Atmospheric nitrogen fixation by methane-oxidizing bacteria. J. Bacteriol. 88:468-472. 1964.-Methane-oxidizing bacteria capable of fixing atmospheric nitrogen were isolated from garden soil, pond mud, oil field soil, and soil exposed to natural gas, indicating a rather wide prevalence in nature. This may exp...
متن کاملNitrogen fixation by reductively dechlorinating bacteria.
Significant advances in the ecology, physiology and genetics of reductively dechlorinating bacteria have revealed their important environmental roles in bioremediation and in the global chlorine cycle. N2 fixation has been widely observed in symbiotic, associative and free-living bacteria. Here we show physiological and molecular evidence that reductively dechlorinating bacteria are capable of ...
متن کاملNitrogen fixation and photosynthetic oxygen evolution in cyanobacteria.
The biological reduction of N(2) is catalyzed by nitrogenase, which is irreversibly inhibited by molecular oxygen. Cyanobacteria are the only diazotrophs (nitrogen-fixing organisms) that produce oxygen as a by-product of the photosynthetic process, and which must negotiate the inevitable presence of molecular oxygen with an essentially anaerobic enzyme. In this review, we present an analysis of...
متن کاملNitrogen Fixation by Ceanothus.
The rapidity of successioni of Ceanothus species in burned-over areas where they are indigenous and the apparent enhancing effect which these species have on the development of other shrubs and ground cover suggests that Ceanothus has a soil-improvement effect and implies the fixation of nitrogen. Nodulation of some species of Ceanothus was observed as early as 1912 (3). Bottomley and also Petr...
متن کاملNitrogen-fixing, photosynthetic, anaerobic bacteria associated with pelagic copepods
Purple sulfur bacteria are photosynthetic, anaerobic microorganisms that fix carbon dioxide using hydrogen sulfide as an electron donor; many are also nitrogen fixers. Because of t h e ~ r requirements for sulfide or orgamc carbon as electron donors in anoxygenic photosynthesis, these bacteria are generally thought to be l im~ted to shallow, organic-nch, anoxic environments such as subtidal mar...
