Denitrification is defined as the reduction of nitrate or nitrite to gaseous nitrogen (usually N2O and N2) and is usually catalyzed by bacteria. Though other organisms are known to produce N2O [119], denitrifiers are thought to be those in which the reduction of nitrogenous oxides is coupled to electron transport phosphorylation thereby providing energy to the cell. Most of the nitrate used by denitrifiers is reduced to gas which is not the case for other N2O producing organisms [111, 118]. The pathway of denitrification is thought to be NO 3 − → NO 2 − → [Enz-NO] → N2O → N2. Whether free NO is an intermediate is still in dispute, but evidence is now stronger for at least an enzyme bound NO intermediate [32, 50]. Denitrifiers often excrete the intermediates NO 2 − and N2O, but significant production of NO is rarely reported. Perhaps owing to the renewed interest in denitrification a number of recent reviews have been prepared on the microbiological, biochemical, physiological, and ecological aspects of denitrification [25, 26, 30, 34, 35, 37, 43, 63, 67, 79, 80, 81, 87]. This text is focused only on those aspects of denitrification of relevance to rice culture.*
