Aim Soil nitrogen (N) cycling is critical to the productivity of terrestrial ecosystems. However,
the impact of global change factors (GCFs) on the microbial mediators of N cycling pathways …

The denitrification process plays an important role in improving water quality and is a
source/sink of nitrous oxide to the atmosphere. The second important rate-limiting step of the …

The melon/cowpea intercropping system can be a specific and efficient cropping pattern in a
horticultural field. Intercropping systems contribute to the optimization of land use, fostering …

A novel double-anammox process for advanced mainstream nitrogen removal was
established using step-feed sequencing batch reactor (SBR) system with integration of …

Crop straw return can enhance soil biological nitrogen (N) fixation (BNF) by improving soil
properties, but the impacts of several crop straw mixture return on BNF and the N-cycling …

Root exudate composition can influence rhizosphere microbial recruitment and is tightly
controlled by plant genetics. However, little research has profiled root exudate in vegetable …

Denitrification is one of the most important biological process by which reactive N is
removed in the biosphere, but the responses of potential denitrification activity (PDA) and …

Warming strongly stimulates soil nitrous oxide (N2O) emission, contributing to the global
warming trend. Submerged paddy soils exhibit huge N2O emission potential; however, the …

The nirS gene encodes nitrite reductase (NIR) and participates in the denitrification of
inorganic nitrogen (N) in soils. Although the gene is important in the global cycling of N, little …

As the promotive/complementary mechanism of the microbe–soil–tobacco (Nicotiana
tabacum L.) interaction remains unclear and the contribution of this triple interaction to …
