Summary Introduction

Nitrogen is one of the key components of nucleic acids and proteins. The nitrogen cycle is a biogeochemical cycle, where the inert atmospheric nitrogen is converted into a usable form, that is useful in a biological process. Nitrogen cycle consists of five different stages – nitrogen fixation, nitrification, assimilation, ammonification, and denitrification.
