[Dissimilatory nitrate reduction in fungi under conditions of hypoxia and anoxia: a review].
Recent progress in studies of anaerobic nitrate reduction and nitrous oxide formation in fungi has been reviewed. Current understanding of the biochemistry of nitrate and nitrite reduction to nitrous oxide and ammonium under oxygen limitation is presented, with emphasis on patterns of fungal co-denitrification, properties of the enzymes involved, and prevalence of nitrate respiration among fungal species.
