Journal ArticleDOI
Global inputs of biological nitrogen fixation in agricultural systems
TL;DR: This paper reviews and update long-standing and more recent estimates of biological N2 fixation for the different agricultural systems, including the extensive, uncultivated tropical savannas used for grazing.
Book ChapterDOI
Biological nitrogen fixation: An efficient source of nitrogen for sustainable agricultural production?
TL;DR: For farming systems to remain productive, and to be sustainable in the long-term, it will be necessary to replenish the reserves of nutrients which are removed or lost from the soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
The contributions of nitrogen-fixing crop legumes to the productivity of agricultural systems.

TL;DR: Results suggest that one such non-N benefit may be due to the impact on soil biology of hydrogenemitted from nodules as a by-product of N2, fixation, which is associated with improvements in availability of N in soils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Legumes for mitigation of climate change and the provision of feedstock for biofuels and biorefineries. A review
Erik Steen Jensen,Mark B. Peoples,Robert M. Boddey,Peter M. Gresshoff,Henrik Hauggaard-Nielsen,Bruno José Rodrigues Alves,Malcolm J. Morrison +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the current knowledge regarding the capacity of legumes to reduce the emissions of the key greenhouse gases carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrous oxide (N2O) compared to N-fertilized systems was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Legume versus fertilizer sources of nitrogen: ecological tradeoffs and human needs
Timothy E. Crews,Mark B. Peoples +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the sustainability of obtaining N from legume versus industrial sources in terms of ecological integrity, energetics and food security, and conclude that obtaining n from legumes is potentially more sustainable than from industrial sources.
