Archaea , bacteria and termite , nitrogen fixation and sustainable plants production

Certain bacteria and archaea are responsible for biological nitrogen fixation. Metabolic pathways usually are common between archaea and bacteria. Diazotrophs are categorized into two main groups namely: rootnodule bacteria and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria. Diazotrophs include free living bacteria, such as Azospirillum, Cupriavidus, and some sulfate reducing bacteria, and symbiotic diazotrophs such Rhizobium and Frankia. Three types of nitrogenase are iron and molybdenum (Fe/Mo), iron and vanadium (Fe/V) or iron only (Fe). The Mo-nitrogenase have a higher specific activity which is expressed better when Molybdenum is available. The best hosts for Rhizobium legumiosarum are Pisum, Vicia, Lathyrus and Lens; Trifolium for Rhizobium trifolii; Phaseolus vulgaris, Prunus angustifolia for Rhizobium phaseoli; Medicago, Melilotus and Trigonella for Rhizobium meliloti; Lupinus and Ornithopus for Lupini, and Glycine max for Rhizobium japonicum. Termites have significant key role in soil ecology, transporting and mixing soil. Termite gut microbes supply the enzymes required to degrade plant polymers, synthesize amino acids, recycle nitrogenous waste and fix atmospheric nitrogen. The positive effects of Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi such as growth promotion, increased root length, leaf area, stem diameter, transplant performance and tolerance to stresses have been reported previously.


Introduction
Nitrogen is a key factor in protein and nucleic acids and all organisms need nitrogen (Benavides et al., 2013). Moreover, nitrogen is the major limiting nutrient for plant biomass production in environment (Nardi et al., 2002). It is the most important parameters for the synthesis of amino acids, DNA, RNA and proteins (Fowler et al., 2013;Rago et al., 2019). Several processes such as nitrogen fixation, dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonia, nitrification, anammox, and denitrification carried out by microbes. Biological nitrogen fixation is called the most critical biological process in the world (Kizilkaya, 2009). Bacteria and archaea inhabit the most inhospitable environments and have unique roles in metabolic pathways and genes to cope with different environmental conditions (Smith-Moore and Grunden, 2018). They are fund inhabiting the cycles in ecosystem is biological nitrogen cycle which includes four main processes, namely, nitrogen fixation, mineralization (decay), nitrification and denitrification (Mao et al., 2011;Xiao et al., 2019). The most important functional genes are nifH, amoA, and nosⱿ genes which are participate in encoding key enzymes in nitrogen fixation, ammonia oxidation and complete denitrification, respectively (Ruiz- Rueda et al., 2009;Bru et al., 2011;Orr et al., 2011). Mao et al. (2011) indicated that utilization of nitrogen fertilizer many have both short-term environmental problems, and long-term impact on the global biogeochemical cycles via altering the soil microbial community structure and abundance. The global nitrogen cycle represents the transformation of nitrogen gases and nitrogen-containing compound which consists of microbial-driven processes, such as assimilation, ammonification, nitrification, denitrification, nitrogen fixation and anaerobic oxidation (You et al., 2009).
Nitrogen fixation Nitrogen fixation has also significant role in biochemical pathways which play an important role in controlling oceanic nitrogen inventory (Ohkuma et al., 1996;LaRoche and Breitbarth, 2005;Sylvia et al., 2005;Cotta et al., 2014). Without any doubt, nitrogen fixation is an ancient way which is essential for surviving life, and play a key role during the beginning of microbial life when abiotic nitrogen sources become scarce (Raymond et al., 2004;Gaby and Buckley, 2014). Nitrogenase plays an important part in global nitrogen cycle (Soleymani et al., 2012;Shahrajabian and Soleymani, 2017), and understanding of nitrogenase expression and regulation is important to utilize potential diazotrophs under various ecological niches to gain agricultural and environmental sustainability at the same time (Kargi and Ozmihci, 2002;Suyalet al., 2018). Nitrogen fixation is divided into two parts abiotic methods (lightning), and biotic (nitrogen fixers) to fix nitrogen to the ground. In the abiotic fixation, N2 would have been oxidized with CO2 by lightning, and then NO gets converted to soluble nitrosyl hydride (HNO) (Navarro-Gonzalez et al., 2011). In the Ocean, dissolved N2 would have been converted into NO3and NO2 - (Mancinelli and Mckay, 1998). Certain bacteria and archaea are responsible for biological nitrogen fixation. Although, there is large atmospheric reservoir, bioavailability of nitrogen mostly relies on biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) (Prayitno and Rolfe, 2010). Two main drivers of universal nitrogen cycling are ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), and archaea (AOA) (Long et al., 2012). Metabolic pathways usually are common between archaea and bacteria (Smith-Moore and Grunden, 2018;Odelade et al., 2019), and almost all genes involved in this process are founder under these domains (Tatusov et al., 2003). It has been found that a lone bilayer lipid which makes the cell structural formation of archaea is very close to the bacterial cell which is gram-positive within prokaryota (Makarova et al., 2001). One of the most important proteins which are common to both archaea and gram-positive bacteria are glutamine synthetase I and Hsp70 (Makarova et al., 2001;Hugenholtz, 2002;Koch, 2003). Nitrogen fixation is energetically expensive because it consumes 16 moles of ATP per mole of N fixed (Aisalbie and Deslippe, 2013). Nitrogen fixation also has been considered as the limiting factor for both crop and natural ecosystem productivity which has shown scholars the importance of this process in agricultural system (Dixon and Kahn, 2004). Relying on chemical fertilizer, 3 especially nitrogen may lead to both serious health issues and environmental concern (Shahrajabian et al., 2011;Shahrajabian et al., 2019), and it is the barrier for the goal of having sustainable agriculture and organic life (Soleymani and Shahrajabian, 2012). Nitrogenase is an ATP-hydrolyzing, redox-active complex of two component proteins, the dinitrogenase reductase γ2 homodimer (NifH protein), and the dinitroenase α2β2 heterotetramer, where α is NifD, and β is NifK proteins (Raymond et al., 2004). The molybdenum nitrogenase is an oxygen sensitive complex dinitrogenase (NifDKheterotetramer), and dinitrogenase reductase (NifH homodimer) (Ortiz-Marquez et al., 2014). MoFe7S9 metal cluster is the active site for dinitrogen reduction for α, however, is some organisms Mo is replaced by either Fe or V, which is called Anf and Vnf, respectively instead of Nif (Raymond et al., 2004). It has been reported that FeMo nitrogenase has been recognized to be more efficient in binding dinitrogen and reducing it to ammonia compare with alternative nitrogenase (Nif>Vnf>Anf) (Joerger and Bishop, 1988;Miller and Eady, 1988). Via the enzyme nitrogenase, microorganisms catalyze nitrogen fixation, which has been highly conserved throughout evolution (Hrynkiewicz et al., 2019). All N2 fixers carry the nif (nitrogen fixation) genes, which encoded the nitrogenase complex (Argandona et al., 2005). Nitrogenase is definitely sensitive to oxygen, which is why a specific oxygen barrier is formed around the infected cells by a cell layer which may reduce oxygen level in nodule cortex (Ribeiro et al., 2015). Keshri et al. (2013) also reported that the key functional genes namely cbbL, nifH, amoA, and apsAinvolced in various nutrient cycling. The genes which encoding of enzymes in nitrification process are ammonium monooxygenase (amo), hydroxylamine oxidoreductase (hao), and nitrite oxidoreducatse (nxr), whereas those that conduct denitrification consist of nitrite reductases (nirK, nirS), nitric oxide reductase (norB), and nitrous oxide reductase (nosZ) (Brauman et al., 2015). The genes which are most commonly used as functional markers to assess both the nitrification and denitrification processes are amo, nirK, nirS and nosZ (Levy-Booth et al., 2014). The nif operon includes the nitrogenase structural gene nifH, which has been sequenced to provide a large database from different environments (Zehr et al., 2003;Argandona et al., 2005).
The additional of external organic matter provides a good source of energy and nutrients to support growth, because many of the microorganisms participating in N2 fixation are heterotrophic or mixotrophic (Rahav et al., 2016;Tang et al., 2017). Also, nifH has been used as a molecular marker to determine diazotroph indices, which encodes a nitrogenase iron protein (Che et al., 2018;Chen et al., 2019). The characterization of diazotroph communities by nifH genes could be a potential indirect approach to the assessment of levels of biological N fixation in soils (Reardon et al., 2014). Tsoy et al. (2016) stated that in most nitrogen-fixing bacteria NifA is the master regulator of nitrogen fixation as it works in relationship with the RNA-plymerase sigma factor RpoN (Sullivan et al., 2002;Sciotti et al., 2003). Both phosphorus (P) deficiency and potassium (K) deficiency resulted in significant decreases in nifH gene expression and N2-fixation activity, and P deficiency exhibited more restricted impacts (Tang et al., 2017). Dinitrogenase reductase (azoferredoxin), and dinitrogenase (molybdoferredoxin) are two principal subunits of the nitrogenase complex (Hageman and Burris, 1978), and Nif (nitrogen fixing) proteins NifH (γ2homodimericazoerredoxin), and NifD/K (α2β2heterotetramericmolybdoferredoxin) are the structural components of these subunits (Kneip et al., 2007).
Three types of nitrogenase are iron and molybdenum (Fe/Mo), iron and vanadium (Fe/V) or iron only (Fe) (Bishop et al., 1986;Chisnell et al., 1988;Bishop and Premakumar, 1992). The Mo-nitrogenase has a higher specific activity which is expreseed better when Mo is available (Eady, 2003;Betancourt et al., 2008). Although, all bacteria which have role in nitrogen fixation possess the Mo-nitrogenase, but just some of them have the genes for the V-and Fe-nitrogenase or both (Bellenger et al., 2014). Tsoy et al. (2016) noted that all known nitrogenases need a FeS-cluster and some other metal-dependent cofactors for transduction. The most common metal-dependent cofactor is the molybdenum-dependent nitrogenase which is encoded by the nifHDK genes (Barns et al., 1996;Sabra et al., 2000;Kneip et al., 2007;Boyd and Peters, 2013;Offre et al., 2013;Ulyshen, 2015). Other notable nitrogenases are vanadium-and iron-dependent nitrogenases encoded by the vnfHDGK and anfHDGK genes, respectively (Rehder, 2000;Herridge et al., 2008;Seefeldt et al., 2009;Hartmann and Barnum, 2010). There are different ways of nitrogen fixing from unavailable gaseous forms in the atmosphere to usable forms for plants and other organisms.

Diazotrophs are categorized into two main groups namely: root-nodule bacteria and plant growthpromoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). Root-noduce bacteria cosnsit of rhizobia and Frankia. Rhizobia which include alpha-and betaproteobacteria enter into a symbiotic association with legumes and Frankia with actinorhizal plants. Some other palnts develop endosymbiotic interactions with nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria (Nostoc). PGPRs consist of proteobacteria (alpha-, beta-, and gammaproteobacteria), actnobacteria, bacilli, and cyanobacteria (Chain et al., 2003;Papineau et al., 2005;Kneip et al., 2007;Philippotet al., 2007;Shridhar, 2012;Mus et al., 2016). The oxidation of ammonia is done by ammonia oxidizers (both archaea and bacteria), and the nitrite produced is finally oxidized by nitrite-oxidizing bacteria. In bacteria, ammonia is oxidized to nitrite via the intermediate hydroxylamine and the enzyme hydroxylamine oxidoreductase (HAO). Functional characterization of upregulated and downregulated selected proteins during low temperature N depletion is shown in Table 1. Homologs of the nifH is indicted in Table 2. Cluster I contains a diverse group of nifH genes primarily from aerobic and facultatively anaerobic organisms which belong to phyla including Proeobacteria, Cyanobacteria, Firmicutes and Actinobacteria (Chien and Zinder, 1994) Cluster II contains anfH, alternative nitrogenase which are paralogs of nifH and use an Fe-Fe cofactor in place of the Fe-Mo cofactor used by nifH. There also exist V-Fe alternative nitrogenases encoded by vnfH, and the alternative nitrogenases appear to be found only in the genomes of organisms which also contain nif genes. Cluster III contains nifH genes that are almost exclusively found in obligate anaerobes including methanogenic Archaea, Treponema, Clostridium and sulfate-reducing and sulfur-reducing species of Deltaproteobacteria (Chien and Zinder, 1994) Cluster IV and V contain paralogous genes which do not participate in nitrogen fixation (Souillard et al., 1988;Fujia et al., 1992;Raymond et al., 2004;Nomata et al., 2006;Staples et al., 2007).

Diazotrophs
Diazotrophs have a vital role in fixing atmospheric nitrogen (N) in terrestrial ecosystems (Koskeyet al., 2017;Wang et al., 2017;Xiao et al., 2020). The estimate areas of biological nitrogen fixation and related factors controlling BNF is done by diazotroph distribution (Ratten et al., 2015;Lin et al., 2018;Yang et al., 2019), which contributes to the sustainability of agricultural ecosystems (Reed et al., 2011). Diazotrophic community structure and diversity also mostly correlated with soil pH (Feng et al., 2018). Mosiander et al. (2012) showed that the free-living diazotrophs contributing to nitrogen fixation changes considerably and is mostly dependent on the soil nitrogen content. Diazotrophs are highly diverse an include members of α-, β-, and δ-Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Cyanobacteria, and Archaea (Rosch et al., 2002;Reardon et al., 2014). Diazotrophs include free living bacteria, such as Azospirillum, Cupriavidus, and some sulfate reducing bacteria, and symbiotic diazotrophs such Rhizobium and Frankia (Knothet al., 2013;Sellstedt and Richau, 2013;Yin et al., 2018). Dixon and Kahn (2004) found that diazotrophs are found in a broad diversity of habitats: free-living in water and soil, symbiotic association in termite guts, associative symbioses with grasses, cyanobacterial symbioses with different plants, actinorhizal relationship with woody plants, and root-nodule symbioses with legumes. Biological nitrogen fixation by diaotophic bacteria in seagrass rhisozphere and leaf epiphytic community is also another considerable source of this process (Hemmina and Duarte, 2000;Welsh, 2000;Lee et al., 2007;Garcias-Bonet et al., 2016). Nitrogen fixing plants can provide diverse impacts on diazotrophs under both nitrogen limitation or saturation (Biswas and Gresshoff, 2014;Xiao et al., 2020). A range of diazotrophic plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria which meaningfully boost the vegetative growth and final grain yield, participate in interactions with C3 and C4 crop plants such as rice, wheat, maize, sugarcane and cotton (Kennedy et al., 2004). The combination of intracellular symbiotic nitrogen fixation, may lead to increase rates of photosynthesis and presence of supplementary plant growh factors in cereals and other non-6 legumes (Evans, 1983;Gillis et al., 1989;Fuentes-Ramirez et al., 1993;Sevilla et al., 2001;Momose et al., 2013;Dent and Cocking, 2017). Xiao et al. (2020) concluded that diazotroph abundance may respond to differences in the density with leguminous plants. Ke et al. (2019) revealed that soil compartment and different inoculation treatments were the main factors affecting the distribution of the diazotrophic community. Pereira et al. (2013) noted that two important parameters which may affect diazotroph communities are temperature and soil moisture in different seasons. Che et al. (2018) also noted that among all environmental factors, the soil moisture, organic carbon, available phosphorus, and inorganic nitrogen contents could be the main drivers of diazotroph distribution. Agronomic practices may also have impact on soil diazotrophs, such as application of nitrogen fertilizer which may reduce the diversity of diazotrophs (Tan et al., 2003). It has been reported that nitrogen supply is closely connected to soil diazotrophs, which shows the nitrogen supply capacity of soil (Dixon and Kahn, 2004;Reed et al., 2011). Chen et al. (2014) showed that the unicellular diazotrophs are important N2 fixers and contributed significantly to N2 fixation in the tropical marginal seas. Chen et al. (2019) also confirmed that diazotrophic activity of heterotrophic Proteobacteria should be considered as an important part of nitrogen cycle in oceanic systems. Trichodesmium spp. and diatom-symbiotic Calothrix rhizosoleniae and Richeliaintracellularis are important marine diazotrophs (Capone et al., 1997;Gomez et al., 2005), and it is believed that most of the biological nitrogen fixation in the ocean is performed by them (Foster et al., 2007;Shiozaki et al., 2014). The best hosts for Rhizobium legumiosarum are pisum, vicia, lathyrus and lens; Trifolium for R. trifolii; Phaseolous vulgaris, P. angustifolia for R. phaseoli; Medicago, Melilotus and Trigonella for R. meliloti; Lupinus and Ornithopus for Lupini, and Glycine max for R. japonicum. LaRoche and Breitbarth (2005) found that Trichosemium is one of the superior marine diazotrophs. Microbial domains comparisons are indicated in Table 3. Reproduction is asexual and transfer of genes is horizontal

Reproduction is asexual and transfer of genes is horizontal
Reproduction is sexual and asexual Free-living and symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacteria are a) archeae which have two divisions, methanosarcinales, and methanobacteriales, b) bacteria which consists of divisions namely cyanobacteria, actinobacteria, proteobacteria, firmicutes (Clostridia), bacteroidetes/chlorobiales, spirochaetales and chloroflexi (Kneipet al., 2007). Phylogenetic affinities of symbiotic and non-symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacteria. Azotobacter species (Azotobacter vinelandii and A. chroococcum) are free-living, aerobic heterotrophic diazotrophs that rely on an adequate supply of reduced C compounds like sugars for energy (Kenndey et al., 2004). Azospirillum species aerobic heterotrophs that fix N2 under microaerobic conditions (Roper and Ladha,1995), which grow widely in the rhizosphere of gramineous plants (Kennedy and Tchan, 1992).
Acetobacter (Gluconacetobacter) diazotrophicus is an acid-tolerant endophyte which grows best on sucrose-7 rich medium (James et al., 1994). Azorhizobium caulinodans increased the dry weight and N content of wheat plants in a green house experiment (Matthews et al., 2001). Herbaspirillum is an endophyte which colonises sugarcane, rice, maize, sorghum and other cereals . Biology and potential role of some diazotrophs are shown in Table 4.

Termites
Termites are insects belonging to the order Isoptera (Gomathi et al., 2018). Termites often divided into two broad classes, a) those that nest in and feed on a single source of dead plant material such as felled dead wood for the whole lifespan of the colony, and those that forage outside the nest (Higashi et al., 1992;Tokuda et al., 2012;Sapountzis et al., 2016). Soil-feeding species are able to feed on nitrogenous soil components such as peptides, proteins and amino acid (Kappler and Brune, 2000;Brune, 2001), while wood-feeding termites can thrive on nutrient-poor materials (Tayasu et al., 1994). It has been reported that the soil organic matter in the termitoshpere is significantly more stable and protected from the intense mineralization compared to the control soil (Brauman, 2000). Unlike reported results, Majeed et al. (2012) found that wood-feeding termites were able to take up atomospheric N2O. Symbiotic nitrogen (N2) fixation occurs in a wide variety of trees, and the endosymbionts in legume trees and in the non-legume genus Parasponia (Ulmaceae) are rhizobia (Sprent and Parsons, 2000). Wood-eating termites feed on a diet highly deficient in nitrogen (Frohlich et al., 2007). Curtis and Waller (1998) deduced that termites nitrogenase activity was highest in autumn and spring. Ulyshen (2015) found that by accelerating the release of nutrients immobilized in fungal tissues and promoting N2 fixation by free-living and endosymbiotic prokaryotes, saproxylic insects have potential to influence N dynamic in forests. Termites have been used as a biological pointer to evaluate both quality and fertility of soil, because of their important role in nitrogen fixation, methanogensis, soil transportation, nutrient circulation and acetogenesis (Dawes, 2010;Brauman et al., 2015;Enagbonma and Babalola, 2019). They have been also known as gold mine of bacterial communities (Benndorf et al., 2018;Devi and Thakur, 2018;Kumar et al., 2018;Enagbonma and Babalola, 2019). N2-fixing activity has been showed in the termite gut, because woodfeeding termites must supplement their food with nitrogen (Breznaket al., 1973;French et al., 1976;Bentley, 1984). It could be accomplished with the aid of nitrogen-fixing bacterial isolates, such as Enterobacter, Desulfovibrio, and Treponema species (Breznak et al., 1973;Kuhnigket al., 1996;Lilburn et al., 2001). Termite gut microbes supply the enzymes required to degrade plant polymers, synthesize amino acids, recycle nitrogenous waste and fix atmospheric nitrogen (N2) (Bignell, 2000;Brune and Ohkuma, 2010;Sapountzis et al., 2016). It has been reported that termites depend on a range of microflora in their guts to promote digestion of the plant material (Gomathi et al., 2018). Sprent and Parsons (2000) found that the success depends on both their ability to fix N2 symbiotically, but also on a range of other adaptations as well as flooding and drought tolerance, mycorrhizal formation, cluster root production and herbivore defenses. Fall et al. (2001) showed that termite mound soil has nearly more than two times calcium and phosphorus, and approximately five times carbon and nitrogen, as well as 50 times ammonia and organic matter than other soil experiments. Microctermes, Nasutitermes, and Macrotermes are main termites of forest vegetation (Gomathi et al., 2018). Some examples of timber producing nitrogen fixing legume trees are shown in Table 5. Examples of non-nodulated legumes used for timber are shown in Table 6. N2 (C2H2) fixation in termites is presented in Table 7. N2 (C2H2) fixation in other insects is indicated in Table 8.  N2 fixing bacteria, especially members of Clostridia, Spirochaetes and gram-negative protoeobacteria including members of genera Desulfovibrio, Enterobacter and Rhizobiahave a large phylogenic diversity of nitrogenase reductase (nifH) genes in xylophagous termite guts (Breznak, 2002;Frohlich et al., 2007;Ngugi and Brune, 2011). The termite gut is ideal for denitrification activities such as N2O to N2 (Braker, 2011), because its gut constitutes a specific microhabitat with both physical and chemical conditions like an alkaline pH with oxygen and hydrogen gradients (Brune et al., 1995). Garba et al. (2011) found that the soil amended with termite mound soils resulted in better plant height, as well as an increase in leave number, fruits, and dry matter than those plants grown on unamended soil in fields under the cultivation of Solanum lycopersicum. Miyagawa et al. (2011) concluded that termite improved the growth of Oryza sativa L., and Phaseolus vulgaris L. Batalha et al. (1995) noted that combined use of 200 g of termite mound material with NPK led to a substantial increase in Solatium melongena production. Watson (1977) reported that Lolium perenne gave higher dry-matter yields with substrates derived from termite mounds than the comparable soil. Bama and Ravindran (2018) concluded that combined use of termite mound materials and inorganic fertilization significantly increase the Zea mays growth and yield. Kisa et al. (2006) showed that termite mound materials consisting of Pseudomonas monteilii species enhanced the ectomycorrhizal development between Acacia holosericea and Scleroderma dictyosporum. Suzuku et al. (2007) observed that combining sandy soil with termite mound materials at a proportion of 120 Mg/ha improved porosity and transformed the pore size distribution, thus causing a stepping up in the obtainable water content for the crop growth.
Archaea Soils in all terrestrial ecosystems are habitat of broad diversity of bacteria, archaea, fungi, annelids, insects as well as plants and algae. Archea is the smallest independently living, single-celled organisms on the earth, and it requires carbon to provide the building blocks for cell materials, as archeae are distributed in many environments such as soil (Aisalbie and Deslippe, 2013). Archea was considered as extremophile bacteria until it was introduced as the third domain of life by Woese and Fox (1977). Archaea plays an important impact in the global geochemical cycles in the world, because it constitutes a principle proportion of the microbial biomass (Offreet al., 2013). The methanogenic Archaea bring a broadened viewpoint to the field of nitrogen fixation, and at least which also found in diazotrophic methanogens present in Bacteria (nifH, D, K, E, N and X), besides, most nitrogenase in methanogens are belong to the molybdenum type (Leigh, 2000). The Archea differences with bacteria are in having isoprene lipids conjugated by ether bonds to glycerol-1-phosphate in their membranes, they lack peptidoglycan in their cell walls, and also their informational proteins are more similar to eukaryotes than to bacteria (Spang et al., 2017). Zhao et al. (2020) concluded that the functional genes of the archaeal community were mostly involved in nitrogen cycles, and it has principal role in biological soil cruts. The most important soil microbes' roles in soil ecosystems are physical support, raw materials, growth medium for plants, buffering water flows, nutrient cycling, recycling of wastes and detoxification, filtering of contaminants, habitat for biodiversity, biological control of pests, weeds and pathogens, carbon storage and regulation of green house gas emissions (Dominatiet al., 2010). The reduction of atmospheric nitrogen gas to ammonium just happened by existence of bacteria and archaea (Aislabie and Deslippe, 2013). Three kingdoms of Archaeaon the basis of phylogenetically divisions are presented in Table 9. Nitrogen fixing species in the Archaea is shown in Table 10. General characteristics of methanogenic Archaea are shown in Table 11.
Distribution and phylogenetic affiliation of nonextremophilicArchaea is shown in Table 12. Table 9. Three kingdoms of Archaea on the basis of phylogenetically divisions (Barns et al., 1996;Luo and Wasserfallen, 2001;Reysenbach et al., 2000) 1-The Crenarchaeota which comprise most of the hyperthermophiles including the hyperthermophilic genera Thermoproteus and Pyrodictium as well as the thermoacidophilic genera Sulfolobus, Acidianus and Desulfurococcus.
2-The Euryarchaeota, a phenotypically more diverse collection of microorganisms including the hyperthermophilic genera Thermoplasma, Thermococcus and the sulfate-reducing Archaeoglobus, the extreme halophiles, the strictly anaerobic methanogens.
3-The Korarchaeota, which are momentarily represented by several, as yet uncultured species.

Fungi
The legumes-Rhizobium symbiosis is the most efficacious system for nitrogen fixation, the bacteria will interact with leguminous plant in the host specific way and form nitrogen fixing root bacteria (Volpin and Kapunik, 1994;de Fariaet al., 2010). The positive effects of Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi such as growth promotion, increased root length, leaf area, stem diameter, transplant performance and tolerance to stresses have been reported previously (Gohre and Pazkowski, 2006;Guether et al., 2009;Kafkas and Ortas, 2009;Sharma et al., 2009: Kiers et al., 2011Sharma et al., 2011;Sharma et al., 2012). AM fungi are vital in ecological agriculture, and they generally characterized by short life cycles of arbuscules and also frequent and rapid colonization of new roots and the emergence of vesicles in the oldest colonizing units (Alexander et al., 1988;Smith and Read, 1997;Azcon-Aguilar et al., 2002;Singh and Adholeya, 2004). Volpin and Kalpunik (1994) described that Glycine max, Pisum sativum, Medicago sativa, Cicer arietinum, Psophocarpus tetragonolobus inoculated with Azospirillum and Rhizobium showed increase in early nodulation, enhancement nodule on main root, total nodule number, nodule weight and nodule specific activity in nitrogen fixation process. Ingraffia et al. (2019) proved the role of Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in driving biological interactions amongst neighboring plants as they are obligate soil biotrophs (Guisande-Collazo et al., 2016). Two main endosymbioses for legume plants are a) with soil fungi, forming phosphorus acquiring arbuscular mycorrhiza, and b) with nitrogen-fixing bacteria leading to the formation of nitrogen-fixing root nodules (Manchanda and Garg, 2007).One of the most characteristic of mycorrhizal symbiosis is improving root nodulation and N2 fixation by boosting the uptake of main nutrients or affecting legume-Rhizobium symbiosis (Barea et al., 2005;Saia et al., 2014), and of course its significant influence on biological nitrogen fixation (Puschel et al., 2017). Xie et al. (2019) showed that P. liquidambaris promotes peanut nodulation and nitrogen fixation which is useful in building a sustainable agricultural system. Veselaj et al. (2018) concluded that the combination of application of Rhizobium leguminosarum and arbuscular mycorrhizae fungi is a sustain way to provide a 13 significantly higher yield for non-saline plants. Bauer et al. (2012) found the importance of soil microbial communities because of impact of AMF and N2-fixers on both community structure and crop productivity.

Azotobacter
The Azotobacteriaceae consists of two genera which is Azomonas sp. and Azotobacter sp. Azotobacter has significant roles in availability of some nutritions like Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Sulphur and carbon via boosting mineralization of organic residues (Fekete et al., 1989;Levaiet al., 2008;Rojas-Tapias et al., 2013).Azotobacter genus belongs to the γ-subclass of the Proeobacteria (Tchan and New, 1984;Becking, 2004) which constitutes seven species namely, A. chroococcum, A. vinelandii, A. beijerinckii, A. paspali, A. armeniacus, A. nigricans, and A. salinestri (Jimenez et al., 2011). A. chroococcum is the most inhabitingvarious soils (Balandreau, 1986;Tchan and New, 1984;Dobereiner, 1995;Martyniuk and Martyniuk, 2003). These free-living aerobic bacteria found in soils dominantly, and its populations influenced by soil physic-chemical such as organic matter, pH, temperature, soil moisture and depth and also microbiological interactions (Kizilkaya, 2009;Chowdhury-Paul et al., 2018;Nag et al., 2018). It is able to fix at least 10 mg N per gram of carbohydrate, and although, it is an obligate aerobic bacterium, is can grow under low O2 (Tejeraet al., 2005). It has been reported that Azotobacteria are much available in the rhizosphere of plants than in surrounding soil, and this abundance mostly depends of crop species (Sariv and Ragoviv, 1963;Garg et al., 2001;Aquilantiet al., 2004;Jnawaliet al., 2015;Inomuraet al., 2017;Rodrigues et al., 2018). Several studies have shown the microbial secretion of stimulating hormones, like auxins, cytokinins and gibberellins (Azcon and Barea, 1975;Martinez Toledo et al., 1989, Salmeron et al., 1990Gonzales-Lopez et al., 1991). Azotobacter also benefit soil fertility by reducing the toxic level of soil accumulated phenolic acids (Gauri et al., 2012). Like A. paspali which can be found just in the rhizosphere of a grass (Paspalum notantum), the occurrence of other Azotobacter species in more restricted in the environment (Tchan and New, 1984;Dobereiner, 1995). It was first described by Dobereiner and Pedrosa (1975). The increase in final yield of maize by Azotobacter inoculation because of nitrogen fixation has been reported (Mrkovacki and Milic, 2001;Waniet al., 2013). Azotobacteriaceae classification is presented in Table 13. Azotobacter vinelandii is a gram-negative bacterium, capable of fixing nitrogen in various environments (Sadoff, 1975), and it used to consider as a model for different studies such as biochemical physiology and genetics (Dixon and Kahn, 2004;Yu and Ullrich, 2018). It is known to produce alginate under aerobic environment (Jarman, 1979;Horan et al., 1981;Annisonand Couperwhite, 1986;Clementi, 1997;McRoseet al., 2019). A. vinelandii showed nearly constant respiration rates and insignifiacant decreases in nitrogen activity, even when O2 concentrations ranging from 30 to 100% air saturation (Post et al., 1983;Boiardi, 1994;Liu et al., 2004). Sabra et al. (2000) suggested that the production of alginate, mainly capsule on the cell surface, 14 forms a productive barrier for O2 transfer into the cell. Several studies have showed that Azotobacter strains could increase seed germination and primarily seedling growth (Shino Suzuki et al., 2002;Gholamiet al., 2009). Azotobacter sp. produces chemical substances which have been similar Gibberellic acid (GA3), and 3-indole acetic acid (IAA) (Sivaskthi et al., 2017). Martinez-Toledo et al. (1985) reported that in natural habitats, where corn plants are not influenced by nitrogen stress, A. chroococcum could be of the main importance in production of stimulatory factors. Kizilkaya (2008) introduced A. chroococcum strains as the key way to achieve sustainable agricultural production of spring wheat. The important and effects of A. chroococcum strains and AM fungi on host plants have been reported in previous researches (Savenkovaet al., 1999;Kumar et al., 2006;Sharma and Kumar, 2008;Kumar and Sharma, 2009;Sharma et al., 2012;Dutt et al., 2013a,b;Khudhur and Askar, 2013;Sharma et al., 2014;Velmourouganeet al., 2019). It has been proved that A. chroococcum has been found to be the most efficacious in nitrogen fixing and also in phytohormone production (IAA) (Ravikumar et al., 2004). Romero-Perdomo et al. (2017) proved that Azotobacter chroococcum AC1 and AC10 showed a viable alternative to improve final cotton yield as well as lowering the nitrogen fertilizer dose and let to reduce the environmental deterioration connected with nitrogen pollution. Din et al. (2019) found that Aspergillus niger (A. niger) and Azotobacter may replace expensive and harmful chemical fertilizers with both eco-friendly and cost-effective biofertilizers. Mittal et al. (2011) reported that great benefits of A. chroococcum in nitrogen fixing for cotton crops in arid and semi-arid tropical regions. Aminpanah and Firouzi (2019) also found that inoculation of seeds with a combination of A. lipoferum and A. chroococcum, increase rice grain yield and a thousand grain weight. Application of Azospirillum spp. and Azotobacter spp. increased the growth and final yield of strawberry under hydroponic condition compare to the control treatment (Rueda et al., 2016). Azotobacter can be an appropriate option for nitrogen deman and best alternative to nitrogen fertilizer in wheat cultivation which may lead to higher productivity (Mahato and Kafle, 2018).

Bacteria
Nitrogen fixation by microbes also found in root sheaths of cereals and tropical grasses (Kirchhofet al., 1997;Gutierrez-Zamora and Martinez-Romero, 2001;Rosenblueth and Martinez-Romero, 2004;Patra et al., 2006;Chowdhury et al., 2007;Montanez et al., 2008Bergmann et al.,2009Davis et al., 2010;Burbanoet al., 2011;Sessitshet al., 2012;Vitouseket al., 2013;Ritchie and Raina, 2016). All grasses, especially C4 grasses show the highest potential for barboringdiaotrophs (James, 2000;Reis et al., 2001;Davis et al., 2010;Tresederet al., 2012). Biological nitrogen fixation in depends on different types of species (Marques et al., 2017;Barazettiet al., 2019). Muangthonget al. (2015) found that Novosphingobiumsediminicola and Ochrobactrum intermedium which were isolated form the leaves of chewing sugarcane plants are capable of to get significant nitrogen concentrations when growing in nitrogen free sand. Legume Nodulation Bacteria (LNB) divided into six general which are Agrobacterium, Rhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, Sinorhizobium, Burkholderia and Herbaspirillum (Mwangi et al., 2011). The genus Azospirillum, which belong to the family Rhodospirillaceae of the class Alphaproteobacteria, is known as a representative nitrogen fixing bacterium containing plantgrowth promoting properties (Bashan and de-Bashan, 2010), and almost all of them dwell in aquatic environments (Kwak and Shin,2016).  observed that nitrogen fixing bacteria can improve the quality of compost and may result in meaningful reduction in N-and C-losses. Bahulikaret al. (2014) reported that the most important nitrogen-fixing bacteria related to Switchgrass were Rhizobium and Methylobacterium species of the alphaproteobacteria, Burkholderia and Azoarcus species of the betaproteobacteria and Desulfuromona and Geobacter species of the deltaproteobacteria. Hara et al. (2019) found that the main important nitrogen fixing bacteria in sorghum roots are bradyrhizobia which resemble photosynthetic B. oligotrophicum S58 T and non-nodulatingBradyrhizobium sp. S23321. The unique role of Bradyrhizobium members have been reported in nitrogen fixation of sugarcane (Thaweenutet al., 2011;Fischer et al., 2012;Rosenbluethet al., 2018), and sweet potato (Terakado-Tonookaet al., 2008).  noted that the higher C/N promote the relative abundance of nitrogen fixing bacteria like Thermoactinomyces, Planifilum, Flavobacterium, Bacillaceae, Pseudomonas, Sphingobacterium, Paenibacillus, Bacillus and Thermobifida. Meaningful influence of both arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and N2-fixer on crop production and community structure which has proved the essential role of soil microbial communities (Xiao et al., 2010;Bauer et al., 2012;Goss and de Varennes, 2012;Abd-Allaet al., 2014;Mbarkiet al., 2017;Hu et al., 2019;Thioubet al., 2019;Xu et al., 2019;Massa et al., 2020). AMF biofertilizer usage can increase continuous cropping of American ginseng growth by boosting the AMF inoculation rate, promoting plant-uptake of essential elements such as nitrogen and phosphorus and by increasing soil-borne pathogens (Johnson, 2010;Smith et al., 2011;Bucking and Kafle, 2015;Liu et al., 2020). Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi is also beneficial to ameliorate the negative effects of a stressful environment (Levy et al., 1983;Goicoechea et al., 2005;Jebaraet al., 2010;Ruiz-Lozano et al., 2012;Garg and Pandey, 2016;Li et al., 2016;Verzeaux et al., 2017;Zhang et al., 2019). It has been proved that AMF can influence plant competition interaction between cooccurring plant species which may represent the vital role of mycorrhizal symbionts for sustainable crop management strategies (Raimam et al., 2007;Nafadyet al., 2018;Bahadur et al., 2019). The most important nitrogen fixing bacteria is shown in Table 14. Association of cereals and nitrogen-fixing PGPR are shown in Table 15.

Conclusions
Nitrogen availability often restricts biological productivity in ecosystems. Nitrogen is the most important element for all forms of life, because it is found in nucleic acids, proteins and chlorophyll, and all forms of live bacteria, fungi, green plants and animals of all kinds can not grow and work unless they get nitrogen in an acceptable form. The sole usage of chemical fertilizer, especially nitrogen may have many unfavorable impacts on not only human and environmental health, but also on green house gasses and negative influence on the ozone layer. Nitrogen gas is abundant, but unreachable to majority of organisms. Nitrogen fixation involves formation of ammonium from N2, which needs a high input of energy. Biological nitrogen fixation utilizes the enzyme nitrogenase and ATP to fix nitrogen. Nitrogenase contains a Fe-protein and a Mo-Fe-protein and other metal cofactors. Soil diazotrophs possess the function of fixing atmospheric N2 into biologically available ammonium in ecosystems. In Aechaea, nitrogen fixation has been reported in some methanogens such as Methanobacteriales, Methanococcales, and Methanosarcinales. Within Bacteria, nitrogen fixation is much more extensively distributed and has been seed in phyla Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Cyanobacteria, Chlorobi, Chloroflexi, Firmicutes, and Proteobacteria. nifH is the gene that encodes the nitrogenase which is the major structural protein that catalyzes the N2 fixation reaction. The most important requirements for nitrogen fixation is a nitrogenase enzyme system, a source of adenosive triphosphate (ATP), a source of reducing power, a protective system for the enzyme from oxygen inactivation, and the rapid removal of nitrogen fixed from the site of nitrogen-fixation to prevent inhibition of the nitrogenase. The key element to improve environmental sustainability is recognizing the importance to improve the biophysical systems which support both short and long-term quality of all aspects of life on the earth with complete understanding of both health and diversity of natural ecosystems. Termite and its bacteria may lead to increase the soil fertility, improved plant growth, increased final crop yield and promote both better health and healthy environment. While, application of chemical fertilizer may lead to soil degradation and reduced crop yield which are the main reason of starvation. In all tropical and subtropical biomes, termites have a leading role in nitrogen mineralization. Two kinds of termites namely soil-feeding and humus-feeding termites normally thrive on nitrogen in soil substances, while, grass-and weed-feeding termites depend on the symbiotic bacterial communities in their gut for biological nitrogen fixation. The utilize of Azotobacter sp. presents a sustainable way to replace chemical fertilizer and even pesticides, which may lead to lower production cost, increase the productivity, reducing environmental pollution in the agricultural systems which heavily depend on chemical fertilizer and pesticides. This important bacterium is an obligate aerobic which can also grow in low O2 situation. The most important ecological parameters which affect the spreading of termites are mean annual rainfall, mean number of rain days, atmospheric humidity and temperature, altitude, vegetation, soil type natural enemies and other related organisms. To have sustainable agriculture, replacing expensive chemical nitrogen fertilizers with environmentally friendly ways is the most accepted practice.
