Versatile nitrate-respiring heterotrophs are previously concealed contributors to sulfur cycle by Bo Shao, Yuan-Guo Xie, Long Zhang, Yang Ruan, Bin Liang, Ruochen Zhang, Xijun Xu, Wei Wang, Zhengda Lin, Xuanyuan Pei, Xueting Wang, Lei Zhao, Xu Zhou, Xiaohui Wu, Defeng Xing, Aijie Wang, Duu-Jong Lee, Nanqi Ren, Donald E. Canfield, Brian P. Hedlund, Zheng-Shuang Hua, Chuan Chen

“…However, their inability to oxidize sulfide renders them vulnerable to this toxic molecule, which inhibits the key enzymatic reaction responsible for reducing nitrous oxide (N2O), thereby raising greenhouse gas emissions. …”

Effects of converting cropland to grassland on greenhouse gas emissions from peat and organic-rich soils in temperate and boreal climates: a systematic review by Alena Holzknecht, Magnus Land, Jacynthe Dessureault-Rompré, Lars Elsgaard, Kristiina Lång, Örjan Berglund

“…No significant differences in carbon dioxide (CO2) or methane (CH4) emissions were found. Emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O) from grasslands were found to be 7.55 kg ha−1 y−1 lower than from cropland, however the sensitivity analysis showed that the difference was not robust, making it uncertain whether conversion from cropland to grassland has a significant effect on N2O emissions from organic soils. …”

Environmental impact assessment of rapeseed production using the LCA method: Part two: Life cycle impact assessment by Kiš Ferenc, Đurišić-Mladenović Nataša, Marjanović-Jeromela Ana

“…These primarily include air emissions (carbon dioxide, ammonia, nitrogen oxides, nitrous oxide, sulphur dioxide, and suspended particles), emissions of certain heavy metals into water and soil (hexavalent chromium and zinc), as well as the exploitation of some natural resources, notably arable land, natural gas, and crude oil. …”

Diversity and distribution of nitrifying bacteria play an important role in the nitrogen cycle in mangrove sediments by A. Mubaraq, M. Sembiring, E. Widiastuti, E. Fachrial, B. Utomo, M. Turjaman, F. Sidik, Y.I. Ulumuddin, V.B. Arifanti, E.S. Siregar, T. Kajita, S. Proches, M. Basyuni

“…In carrying out changes in nitrogen compounds, nitrifying bacteria use functional genes from different steps of the nitrification process, such as nitrogenase, ammonia monooxygenase subunit A, nitrite oxidoreductase alpha subunit, nitrate reductase alpha chain, nitrite reductase, nitric oxide reductase, nitrous oxide reductase, hydrazine synthase, hydrazine oxidoreductase and hydroxylamine oxidoreductase genes. …”

Microbial mechanisms underlying the reduction of N2O emissions from submerged plant covered system by Yongxia Huang, Min Deng, Shuni Zhou, Yunpeng Xue, Senbati Yeerken, Yuren Wang, Lu Li, Kang Song

“…However, the effect of SP on nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions remains controversial, and the impact of SP-attached biofilms on N2O emissions is often overlooked. …”
