Modification of the biophysical water function to predict the change in soil mineral nitrogen concentration resulting from concurrent mineralization and denitrification
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
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
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
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 ... -
Tasco (R), a Product of Ascophyllum nodosum, Imparts Thermal Stress Tolerance in Caenorhabditis elegans
Tasco (R), a commercial product manufactured from the brown alga Ascophyllum nodosum, has been shown to impart thermal stress tolerance in animals. We investigated the physiological, biochemical and molecular bases of ...
