Nitrogen Dynamics in Wetland Systems and Its Impact on Biodiversity

Anum Yousaf, Noreen Khalid, Muhammad Aqeel et al. · 1 May 2021

Wetlands are viable sinks for nitrate and have also been identified as a source of nitrous oxide, a product of two microbially regulated processes: nitrification and denitrification. Anthropogenic expansion of nitrogen is a leading cause of the eutrophication of water bodies and may also contribute to the deterioration of the ozone layer in the stratosphere.…

Nitrogen Cycling and Mass Balance in the World’s Mangrove Forests

Daniel M. Alongi · 1 Dec 2020

Nitrogen (N) cycling in mangroves is complex, with rapid turnover of low dissolved N concentrations, but slow turnover of particulate N. Most N is stored in soils. The largest sources of N are nearly equal amounts of mangrove and benthic microalgal primary production. Dissolved N fluxes between the forests and tidal waters show net uptake,…

Optimizing the Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Vegetable Crops

Hector Valenzuela · 5 Feb 2024

Nitrogen (N) is the most limiting nutrient for the production of vegetable crops, but anthropogenic sources pose risks due to its transformation into several reactive forms and movement throughout the environment. The bulk of the N research to date to improve Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE) has followed a reductionist factorial approach focused on synthetic N…

Assessing Nitric Oxide (NO) in Higher Plants: An Outline

Francisco J. Corpas, José M. Palma · 4 May 2018

Nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical and a component of the N-cycle. Nevertheless, NO is likewise endogenously produced inside plant cells where it participates in a myriad of physiological functions, as well as in the mechanism of response against abiotic and biotic stresses. At biochemical level, NO has a family of derived molecules designated…

Communicating Nitrogen Loss Mechanisms for Improving Nitrogen Use Efficiency Management, Focused on Global Wheat

Rebecca L. Whetton, Mary Harty, Nicholas M. Holden · 28 Apr 2022

Nitrogen (N) losses are a major environmental issue. Globally, crop N fertilizer applications are excessive, and N use efficiency (NUE) is low. N loss represents a significant economic loss to the farmer. NUE is difficult to quantify in real time because of the multiple chemical–biological–physical factors interacting. While there is much scientific understanding of N…

Nitrogen template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Nitrogen format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Nitrogen template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official MDPI format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Nitrogen use?
Nitrogen uses Numbered (MDPI) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A.; Jones, B.; Lee, C. A Representative Article Title. Nitrogen 2023, 12, 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Nitrogen?
No. DocuGuru generates the mdpi LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a MDPI-ready Nitrogen document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Nitrogen template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Nitrogen format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Nitrogen?
Nitrogen - MDPI Journal. It is a multidisciplinary journal, published by MDPI.
Can I export a submission-ready Nitrogen PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Nitrogen template (the mdpi class) that is ready to submit to MDPI, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Nitrogen template cost?
You can start writing in the Nitrogen template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Nitrogen PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
