Low yield and abiotic origin of N2O formed by the complete nitrifier Nitrospira inopinata
Nature Communications, 2019 Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea are major producers of the gases nitrous oxide and nitric oxide. Here, Kits et al. show that a complete ammonia-oxidizing (comammox) bacterium emits nitrous oxide at levels that are comparable to those produced by ...

Ammonia oxidizers in the sea-surface microlayer of a coastal marine inlet. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Planktonic archaea are thought to play an important role in ammonia oxidation in marine environments. Data on the distribution, abundance, and diversity of ammonia oxidizers in the coastal sea-surface microlayer (SML) are lacking, despite previous ...

Ammonia oxidation and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea from estuaries with differing histories of hypoxia [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2007 Abstract Nitrification, the oxidation of NH4 + to NO2 − and subsequently to NO3 −, plays a central role in the nitrogen cycle and is often a critical first step in nitrogen removal from estuarine and coastal environments. The first and rate-limiting step in nitrification is catalyzed by the enzyme ammonia monooxygenase (AmoA).

Microbial community changes along the active seepage site of one cold seep in the Red Sea
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 The active seepage of the marine cold seeps could be a critical process for the exchange of energy between the submerged geosphere and the sea floor environment through organic-rich fluids, potentially even affecting surrounding microbial habitats ...

Responses of Ammonia-Oxidizing Microorganisms to Intercropping Systems in Different Seasons
Agriculture, 2021 Intercropping plays an essential role in agricultural production, impacting the soil’s physical and chemical properties and microbial communities. However, the responses of ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms in the continuous-cropping soil to different ...

Nitric oxide scavengers differentially inhibit ammonia oxidation in ammonia-oxidizing archaea and bacteria [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2016 Differential inhibitors are important for measuring the relative contributions of microbial groups, such as ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), to biogeochemical processes in environmental samples. In particular, 2-phenyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl 3-oxide (PTIO) represents a nitric oxide scavenger used for ...

mSystems, 2021 Ammonia tolerance is a universal characteristic among the ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB); in contrast, the known species of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) have been regarded as ammonia sensitive, until the identification of the genus “Candidatus ...
