An RNA-based study of the distribution of ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms in vertical sediment

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) play crucial roles in ammonia nitrogen degradation in freshwater lake sediment.

Advancements and Challenges in Second‐ and Third‐Generation Biofuels: A Comparative Analysis of Lignocellulosic and Algal Feedstocks

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advanced biofuels derived from nonfood biomass are increasingly recognized as strategic components of low‐carbon energy systems, particularly for sectors where direct electrification remains difficult. Second‐generation biofuels from lignocellulosic residues and third‐generation biofuels from algal and aquatic biomass offer complementary ...

Relative contributions of archaea and bacteria to aerobic ammonia oxidation in the environment [PDF]

Environmental Microbiology, 2008
Summary Traditionally, organisms responsible for major biogeochemical cycling processes have been determined by physiological characterization of environmental isolates in laboratory culture. Molecular techniques have, however, confirmed the widespread occurrence of abundant bacterial and archaeal groups with no cultivated ...

Exploring protein N-glycosylation in ammonia-oxidizing Nitrososphaerota archaea through glycoproteomic analysis

mBio
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea of the phylum Nitrososphaerota, formerly known as Thaumarchaeota, are globally distributed and play critical roles in the nitrogen and carbon cycles, particularly in environments with low ammonia concentrations.

Benzimidazole Anthelmintic Compounds Albendazole and Fenbendazole Show Distinct Toxicity on the Nitrogen Fixing Bacterium Mesorhizobium loti and Its Symbiosis With Lotus japonicus

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Veterinary medicines, which reach the soil mostly through the application of contaminated manures, can affect beneficial soil microorganisms, such as nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia bacteria, which engage in important symbiotic associations with plants.

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, EarlyView.
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.

Research progress on the physiological metabolic mechanisms and distribution in water treatment systems of ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms

Gongye shui chuli
Nitrification and denitrification processes play crucial roles in biological nitrogen removal in water treatment systems. The ammonia oxidation in nitrification is the rate-limiting process, which converts low-valent ammonia-nitrogen into high-valent ...

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,

Minimal ATP‐Independent N2‐Reducing Systems Defined by L‐Cluster‐Bound Nitrogenase Assembly Platforms

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 24, 8 June 2026.
Association of the L‐cluster with the nitrogenase assembly proteins NifEN (NifENL) or NifB (NifBL) intrinsically endows these proteins with N2‐reducing activity, enabling in vitro N2‐reduction by NifENL and NifBL when supplied with chemical reductants or photoexcited quantum dots while supporting in vivo N2‐fixation in NifENL‐ and NifENL‐expressing ...

Tillage does not impact soil greenhouse gas emissions in a Central Texas rainfed maize–cotton system

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Agricultural soils are a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily as N2O. Monitoring how management practices impact soil gas fluxes (CO2, CH4, and N2O) is useful for making sure conservation practices (e.g., no‐till) are sustainable with regards to all potential environmental impacts.
