denitrification is soil bacteria converting nitrates into nitrogen gas, is process releases nitrogen into the atmosphere. If there wasn't any bacteria, there would be no process and therefor the nitrogen wouldn't make it into the atmosphere.

If your not counting the decomposers, 'm pretty sure nothing significant would happen, because when plants die decomposers can still break them down and return the nitrogen to the environment. There would be less nitrogen. Since without animals there would be less organisms on Earth, I think that's all the nitrogen the plants still remaining would need.

What would happen to nitrogen cycle if plants were removed by pesticides?

Pesticides stop the nitrogen cycle by suppressing nitrogen-fixing bacteria from replenishing natural nitrogen fertilizer in soil. This results in lower crop yields, stunted growth, and an ever-greater need for additives to boost production.

What if there was no micro-organisms on earth what will happen?

Microorganisms are the basis of many processes that sustain life. If all the microorganisms on earth were to suddenly disappear, then the nitrogen cycle would be immediately disrupted, as nitrification would no longer occur. Many oxygen generating bacteria would be gone. The human body itself contains many symbiotic microorganisms, although the actual effect their disappearance might cause is unclear.
