    According to Koonin, [23] RNA viruses colonized eukaryotes first and subsequently co-evolved with their hosts. This concept fits well with the proposed "ancient co-evolution hypothesis", which also assumes a long co-evolution of viruses and fungi. [1] [13] The "ancient co-evolution hypothesis" could explain why mycoviruses are so diverse. [13] [24]

    2 O emitted into the atmosphere, from natural and anthropogenic sources, is produced by microorganisms such as denitrifying bacteria and fungi in soils and oceans. [64] Soils under natural vegetation are an important source of nitrous oxide, accounting for 60% of all naturally produced emissions.

    It is a bioproduct in almost all types of organisms, including bacteria, plants, fungi, and animal cells. [29] Nitric oxide, an endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF), is biosynthesized endogenously from L-arginine, oxygen, and NADPH by various nitric oxide synthase (NOS) enzymes. [30] Reduction of inorganic nitrate may also make nitric ...
