Fundamental studies of microbial nitrogen transformations

A core theme is the transcriptional regulation of the genes coding for nitrite reductase (NIR), nitric oxide reductase (NOR) and N2O reductase (NOS). Recently we have disovered stochastic transcription of NIR in the model bacterium, Paracoccus denitrificans, and strong expression of NOS in all ce...

BIONÆR-Bionæringsprogram

New generation biofertilizers for improved nitrogen management, sustainable food production and low greenhouse gas emissions

Bioteknologi for reduksjon av lystgassutslipp (N2O) fra landbruket. Prosjektet har fulgt to spor for å utvikle bioteknologi som effektivt reduserer utslippet av N2O fra landbruksjord. Det ene er å bruke nitrifikasjons-inhibitorer (NI), stoffer som selektivt hemmer ammonium-oksidasjonen i jord. De...

FFL-JA-Forskningsmidlene for jordbruk og matindustri

Mitigation of greenhouse gas emission from cropped soils by mafic mineral applications

MIGMIN-prosjektets mål er å utforske muligheten for å redusere utslipp av lystgass (N2O) fra landbruket ved å heve pH i jorden (motvirke forsuring). Dette vil senke klima-pådrivet fra matproduksjon fordi N2O er en kraftig klimagass som svarer for en stor andel av landbrukets totale klima-pådriv. ...

IS-TOPP-Toppfinans. av M.Curie-stipend

NORA - Nitrous oxide research allience training network A Marie Curie ITN

The fate of anthropogenic nitrogen is at the core of our environmental predicament. Human activities have more than doubled the annual input of reactive nitrogen to the biosphere compared to prehistoric levels, causing escalating emissions of nitrous oxid e (N2O) which contributes to global warmi...

IS-MOBIL-Mobilitetsprogr.f.utl.Ph.D-stu

Regulation of anoxic respiration in endosymbiotic bacteria, implications for N2O emission - Emilio Bueno Romero - Spain

The project draws on complementary skills and knowlege of the two groups; UMB Nitrogen Group (UMBNG) and Maria Delgado Group (MDG). MDG has established in depth knowlege of the genetic makeup of the regulatory network controlling anoxic respiration in B . japonicum, and has constructed several ...

BIONÆR-Bionæringsprogram

Konferanse: European Ncycle meeting 2012

Dette er møte nr 17 i en serie som opprinnelig ble startet av britiske og nederlandske biokjemikere for å skape en arena for sin egen forskning på nitrogensyklus. Møtene drives av et uformelt nettverk av ledende europeiske forskningsgrupper innen biokjemi , mikrobiologi og mikrobiell økologi. Vår...

BILATNAER-Bilat.samarb.m.N-AM,Kina,Jpn,I

Fertilizer technologies for reduced N2O emission from food production

The project will explore options to minimize N2O emissions from food production, be it by development of new fertilizer formulations/fertilizer regimes or alternative soil managements. The search for such mitigations in the past have largely been unsucces sful, but recent progress in molecular bi...

Technologies for reduced N2O emission from food production

Prosjektets mål har vært å identifisere og forstå faktorer i jord som regulerer emisjon av N2O, for dermed å komme frem til inngrep som kan redusere utslippet av denne klimagassen. Prosjektet tok utgangspunkt i tre "standard" hypoteser: 1) det ek sisterer store forskjeller mellom jordtyper m...

BILATNAER-Bilat.samarb.m.N-AM,Kina,Jpn,I

Fertilizer technologies for reduced N2O emission from food production

We are convinced that there exist options for reducing N2O emissions per unit N input, and that these can be most effectively explored by investigating how N2O emissions are regulated at the cellular-, microhabitat-, microcosm level (rather than by measur ing N2O fluxes at the field scale). Our...

NORKLIMA-Klimaendringer og konsekvenser for Norge

Stable isotope signatures in N2O and CH4: linking microbial processes to atmospheric chemistry

The stable isotope content (15N, 18O, 13C, D/H) of atmospheric nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) reflects the overall balance of isotopic fractionation associated with its formation, transport and destruction. Knowledge of process-specific isotope eff ects has become a powerful tool in clarif...
