Indigenous Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaea in Oxic Subseafloor Oceanic Crust

mSystems, 2020
Oceanic ridge flank systems represent one of the largest and least-explored microbial habitats on Earth. Fundamental ecological questions regarding community activity, recruitment, and succession in this environment remain unanswered.

Prebiotic aqueous reactions catalyzed by native nickel without hydrogen

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Serpentinizing (H2‐producing) hydrothermal vents are candidate environments for metabolic origin. They generate highly reducing conditions that convert CO2 to formate and methane in abiotic reactions resembling reactions of the acetyl‐CoA pathway of CO2 fixation. They also contain natural catalysts. Native nickel (Ni0), like Fe0, Co0, and their alloys,

Hydrothermal origin of metabolic phosphorylation

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Serpentinizing hydrothermal vents are candidate sites for biochemical origins. They generate extremely reducing conditions, depositing phosphite (HPO32−) and transition metals, including palladium, in the native (zero‐valent) state. Schlikker et al.

Long‐Term Low‐DO Operation Changes the Ammonia Oxidizer Community and Oxygen Kinetics

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 10, October 2026.
Lower dissolved oxygen reduces energy demand for wastewater treatment but slows ammonia removal. This study investigates a pilot process maintaining complete nitrification, documenting ammonia oxidizer adaptation to low dissolved oxygen. ABSTRACT Low–dissolved oxygen (DO) biological nutrient removal is an attractive option for energy and cost reduction,

Metagenomic Evidence for the Presence of Comammox Nitrospira-Like Bacteria in a Drinking Water System

mSphere, 2016
We report metagenomic evidence for the presence of a Nitrospira-like organism with the metabolic potential to perform the complete oxidation of ammonia to nitrate (i.e., it is a complete ammonia oxidizer [comammox]) in a drinking water system.

Microbial Community Restructuring Under Zinc Oxide Nanoparticle Stress in Membrane Bioreactors

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Long‐term ZnO nanoparticle exposure induced extracellular stress responses and restructured microbial communities, with reduced taxonomic and phylogenetic richness and loss of key nitrogen‐transforming taxa. These ecological changes were accompanied by impaired nitrification, demonstrating that prolonged ZnO exposure can compromise the functional ...

Diagnosing Anaerobic Digesters' Function and Performance: From Meta‐Omics to Integrated Meta‐Omics Analyses

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
The integration of multiple meta‐omics can tremendously improve our understanding of the structure, function and dynamics of the complex biological system in anaerobic digesters. Created in BioRender. https://BioRender.com/u9rj8ko. ABSTRACT Anaerobic digestion (AD) of organic wastes by microorganisms into biomethane contributes significantly towards ...

Introduced dung beetles suppress methane emissions from cattle dung and alter the temporal dynamics of greenhouse gas flux Los escarabajos peloteros introducidos suprimen las emisiones de metano del estiércol de ganado y alteran la dinámica temporal del flujo de gases de efecto invernadero Besouros coprófagos introduzidos suprimem as emissões de metano do esterco bovino e alteram a dinâmica temporal do fluxo de gases de efeito estufa

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 5, Page 1025-1035, October 2026.
Dung beetles suppressed cumulative methane flux from cattle dung by 85% and reduced total greenhouse gas emissions by 18%. Beetle activity accelerated initial CO2 release but did not alter total cumulative flux. N2O and NH3 fluxes were transient and not consistently driven by beetle presence.

Soil Microbial Communities Changes Along Depth and Contrasting Facing Slopes at the Parque Nacional La Campana, Chile

Microorganisms
The Parque Nacional La Campana (PNLC) was recently recognized for its high soil surface microbial richness. Here, we explored the microbial community structure in soil profiles from contrasting facing slopes where sclerophyllous forest (SF) and ...
