Current climate models overstate the rate of nitrogen fixation, a natural process that helps remove atmospheric carbon ...

Earth is bathed in nitrogen. It makes up about 78% of the atmosphere, and it’s stitched into every nucleotide, every cell, every living thing on the planet. But before humans learned to synthesize ...

An important component in the process of nitrogen fixation in plants has been discovered by researchers. They have identified a key protein that facilitates the movement of calcium in plant cells.

The regulation of the biological fixation of nitrogen in hydric stress conditions varies with the different species of legume plants studied. This was the conclusion of Ruben Ladrera Fernández in his ...

A straightforward asymmetric strategy has led to the creation of elusive nitrogen stereocentres. The carefully designed ...

Nitrogen-based synthetic fertilizer forms the backbone of the world food supply, but its manufacture requires a tremendous amount of energy. Now, computer modeling at Princeton University points to a ...
