corn crop removes somewhere between 10 lb. and 20 lb. of sulfur.” Nielsen says typically there’s about 100 lb. of organic sulfur for every one percentage point of organic matter. Usually ...

Sulfate-reducing bacteria break down a large proportion of the organic carbon in the oxygen-free zones of Earth, and in the ...

Like nitrogen and phosphorus, sulfur follows a cycle in which it moves from the organic form, which plants cannot use, to the inorganic form, which they can take up, and back again. “Organic ...

A modular metabolism may explain the environmental success of certain sulphate-reducing bacteria. This is the result of a study published this week in the journal Science Advances. A research team led ...

Serving as a building block for protein synthesis, and especially for the formation of amino acids, sulfur (S) impacts the ...

However, some strains possess additional molecular modules that enable them to utilise diverse organic substances. The results could advance our understanding of sulfate-reducing bacteria's ...
