Biological nitrogen (N) fixation is one of the most significant parts of the N cycle in terrestrial ecosystems, and this process is carried out by soil diazotrophs. However, knowledge of diazotroph assembly processes and activity in response to diverse fertilization strategies in agroecosystems across a large geographical scale is still lacking.
MENG Xiangtian and Prof. YAO Huaiying from the institute of urban environment selected nine agro-ecological experimental sites that covered ...

Scientists from the Institute of Urban Environment, Chinese Academy of Sciences, have determined soil nitrification inhibitory activity in situ during the growth of sorghum and the effect of biological nitrification inhibitors on the abundance and composition of nitrifiers.
Plant roots secret nitrification inhibitors to inhibit soil nitrification which are termed biological nitrification inhibitors (BNI). Compared to synthetic nitrification inhibitors, plant-derived BNIs are low-cost...
