Effect of Nitrate and Acetylene on nirS, cnorB, and nosZ Expression and Denitrification Activity in Pseudomonas mandelii
Saleh-Lakha, Saleema; Shannon, Kelly E.; Henderson, Sherri L.; Zebarth, Bernie J.; Burton, David L.; Goyer, Claudia; Trevors, Jack T. (American Society for Microbiology, 2009-08)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; Shannon, Kelly E.; Henderson, Sherri L.; Goyer, Claudia; Trevors, Jack T.; Zebarth, Bernie J.; Burton, David L. (American Society for Microbiology, 2009-06)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 ... -
Nitric Oxide Reductase Gene Expression and Nitrous Oxide Production in Nitrate-Grown Pseudomonas mandelii
Saleh-Lakha, Saleema; Shannon, Kelly E.; Goyer, Claudia; Trevors, Jack T.; Zebarth, Bernie J.; Burton, David L. (American Society for Microbiology, 2008-11)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 ...
