Biological nitrogen fixation by alternative nitrogenases in terrestrial ecosystems: a review (2020, background): “These three nitrogenase isoforms, encoded by separate genes (Boyd et al. 2011; Chien et al. 2000; Dixon and Kahn 2004; Eady 1996; Hamilton et al. 2011; Raina et al. 1988; Schuddekopf et al. 1993; Thiel 1993; Werner Klipp 2004; Wolfinger and Bishop 1991; Zinoni et al. 1993, see section ‘‘Nitrogenase…”
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria associated with leguminous and non-leguminous plants (2009, background): “well as the regulatory nifLA genes controlling expression of the nif cluster (Merrick and Edwards 1995; Dixon and Kahn 2004).”
Plant growth-promoting bacteria as inoculants in agricultural soils (2015, background): “Diazotrophic microorganisms perform BNF through nitrogenase, a highly conserved enzyme that comprises two metalloproteins, FeMo-protein and Fe-protein (Dixon and Kahn, 2004).”
Investigation of biofertilizers influence on quantity and quality characteristics in Nigella sativa L. (2011, neutral): “89 negative bacteria (Dixon and Kahn, 2004).”
Biological nitrogen fixation: rates, patterns and ecological controls in terrestrial ecosystems (2013, methodology): “Next, we discuss observations and experiments that provide insights into the patterns and controls of BNF, as these operate on genetic, physiological and ecological levels [10–12].”
Advances in Host Plant and Rhizobium Genomics to Enhance Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation in Grain Legumes (2015, background): “It involves a complex host–rhizobium symbiotic relationship orchestrated by the genetic and metabolic networks of both organisms (Dixon and Kahn, 2004).”
Diazotroph community structure and abundance in wheat–fallow and wheat–pea crop rotations (2014, background): “Diazotrophs are highly diverse and include members of a-, b-, g-, and d-Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Cyanobacteria, and Archaea (Dixon and Kahn, 2004; Rösch et al., 2002), most of which are uncultivated.”
Nitrogenase genes in non-cyanobacterial plankton: prevalence, diversity and regulation in marine waters (2010, background): “For most diazotrophs, nifH expression is coordinated in response to the availability of reduced N and the presence of O2 (reviewed by Dixon & Kahn 2004); however, the pelagic realm is oligotrophic, generally well oxygenated, and the bulk of the ocean’s interior is replete with inorganic N sources.”
Beneficial fungal communities from different habitats and their roles in plant growth promotion and soil health (2020, background): “Iron is the most essential micronutrients for the development of the plant and the plants involved in the most critical biological cycling, including chlorophyll biosynthesis, respiration and photosynthesis (Dixon and Kahn 2004; Kobayashi and Nishizawa 2012).”
Most Sinorhizobium meliloti Extracytoplasmic Function Sigma Factors Control Accessory Functions (2018, background): “Nitrogenfixing nodules are distinctly pink in color due to the presence of the oxygensequestering protein leghemoglobin (4), while nonfixing nodules are white or very pale pink.”
