The intensive agricultural production in the Midwest contributes to pollution through nutrient runoff and climate change via greenhouse gas emissions, negatively impacting both human and environmental health. The main pollutant from nutrient runoff is nitrate. The main greenhouse gases of concern are nitrous oxide and methane. Leveraging microbial processes can be an effective and sustainable way to address agricultural pollution.This work facilitates finding and potentially stimulating oxygenic denitrification, a unique nitrogen cycling process currently overlooked in agricultural settings, to better inform its use in nitrate, nitrous oxide, and methane mitigation strategies. This work demonstrated that Iowa agricultural soils harbored more diverse and abundant nod genes, biomarkers for oxygenic denitrification, than freshwater sediments. Elevated nod abundance due to increased soil saturation in the environment and due to ample nitrogen and methane in laboratory experiments was also demonstrated.Anaerobic digestion is another underutilized microbial-driven technology that addresses agricultural pollution by turning waste into valuable resources through the production and capturing of methane. We expanded the potential waste sources that can be input into this system by demonstrating the feasibility of co-digesting industrial organics with cattle manure digestate. Furthermore, by characterizing the function and identity of the microbes performing this process, we enabled more targeted and informed decision-making for more efficient digestion. Overall, this thesis positively contributes to knowledge about microbial processes that can be leveraged to inform agriculture mitigation strategies and technologies.
