  • Effect of Nitrate and Acetylene on nirS, cnorB, and nosZ Expression and Denitrification Activity in Pseudomonas mandelii 

    Saleh-Lakha, Saleema, Kelly E. Shannon, Sherri L. Henderson, Bernie J. Zebarth, et al. 2009. "Effect of Nitrate and Acetylene on nirS, cnorB, and nosZ Expression and Denitrification Activity in Pseudomonas mandelii." Applied and Environmental Microbiology 75(15): 5082-5087.
    Nitrate acts as an electron acceptor in the denitrification process. The effect of nitrate in the range of 0 to 1,000 mg/liter on Pseudomonas mandelii nirS, cnorB, and nosZ gene expression was studied, using quantitative ...

  • Effect of pH and Temperature on Denitrification Gene Expression and Activity in Pseudomonas mandelii 

    Saleh-Lakha, Saleema, Kelly E. Shannon, Sherri L. Henderson, Claudia Goyer, et al. 2009. "Effect of pH and Temperature on Denitrification Gene Expression and Activity in Pseudomonas mandelii." Applied and Environmental Microbiology 75(12): 3903-3911.
    Pseudomonas mandelii liquid cultures were studied to determine the effect of pH and temperature on denitrification gene expression, which was quantified by quantitative reverse transcription-PCR. Denitrification was ...

  • Modification of the biophysical water function to predict the change in soil mineral nitrogen concentration resulting from concurrent mineralization and denitrification 

    Georgallas, Alex, Jacynthe Dessureault-Rompre, Bernie J. Zebarth, David L. Burton, et al. 2012. "Modification of the biophysical water function to predict the change in soil mineral nitrogen concentration resulting from concurrent mineralization and denitrification." Canadian Journal of Soil Science 92(5): 695-710.
    Georgallas, A., Dessureault-Rompre, J., Zebarth, B. J., Burton, D. L., Drury, C. F. and Grant, C. A. 2012. Modification of the biophysical water function to predict the change in soil mineral nitrogen concentration ...

  • Nitric Oxide Reductase Gene Expression and Nitrous Oxide Production in Nitrate-Grown Pseudomonas mandelii 

    Saleh-Lakha, Saleema, Kelly E. Shannon, Claudia Goyer, Jack T. Trevors, et al. 2008. "Nitric Oxide Reductase Gene Expression and Nitrous Oxide Production in Nitrate-Grown Pseudomonas mandelii." Applied and Environmental Microbiology 74(22): 6876-6879.
    Pure cultures of Pseudomonas mandelii were incubated with or without nitrate, which acts as a substrate and an electron acceptor for denitrification. Nitric oxide reductase (cnorB) gene expression was measured using a ...

  • Nitric oxide reductase-targeted real-time PCR quantification of denitrifier populations in soil 

    Dandie, C. E., M. N. Miller, D. L. Burton, B. J. Zebarth, et al. 2007. "Nitric oxide reductase-targeted real-time PCR quantification of denitrifier populations in soil." Applied and Environmental Microbiology 73(13): 4250-4258.
    The quantification of denitrifying bacteria is a component in the further understanding of denitrification processes in the environment. Real-time PCR primers were designed to target two segments of the denitrifier ...

  • Permeable Synthetic Covers for Controlling Emissions from Liquid Dairy Manure 

    VanderZaag, A. C., R. J. Gordon, R. C. Jamieson, D. L. Burton, et al. 2010. "Permeable Synthetic Covers for Controlling Emissions from Liquid Dairy Manure." Applied Engineering in Agriculture 26(2): 287-297.
    Liquid manure storages emit greenhouse gases (GHGs) and ammonia (NH(3)), which can have negative effects in the atmosphere and ecosystems. Installing a floating cover on liquid manure storages is one approach for ...
