Nitrogen is the single most limiting factor for rice production. Microbial soil processes, e.g. nitrification, denitrification and mineralization, influence the fate of the ?mobile? N atom. There are gaps in the understanding of key processes that govern N cycling, availability and plant acquisition in irrigated rice systems. Nitrous oxide (N2O), a greenhouse gas, is produced as a by-product during nitrification and occurs as an intermediate during denitrification. The use of fertilizers with inhibitors of nitrification has been proposed as a mitigation strategy. This study showed that less than 7% of the total N2O emission from ENTEC®-fertilized soils, containing an inhibitor of nitrification (DMPP: 3.4-dimethylpyrazolephosphate) was due to nitrification. T-RFLP amoA analysis detected the presence of Nitrosomonas and Nitrosospira genera in urea-fertilized plots.  aARROZ  aNITRIFICACION1 aGONNET, S.1 aIRISARRI, P.1 aMENES, J.1 aFERNÁNDEZ, A.1 aPAOLINO, G.1 aTRAVERS, D.1 aDEAMBROSI, E.1 aMÉNDEZ-VILAS, A.  tIn: Modern multidisciplinary applied microbiology: Exploiting microbes and their interactions, 2008, Reino Unido: Wiley-VCH Verlag. p.416-420
