Abstract:17Nitrogen (N) fertilizers applied to agricultural soils result in the release of nitrogen, mainly nitrate 18 (NO 3 -) in addition to nitrous oxide (N 2 O) and ammonia (NH 3 ), into the environment. Nitrogen 19 transformation in soil is a complex process and the soil microbial population can regulate the 20 potential for N mineralization, nitrification and denitrification. Here we show that agricultural soils 21 under standard agricultural N-management are consistently characterized by a high presence of 22 ge… Show more
