Phanerozoic radiation of ammonia oxidizing bacteria [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 The modern nitrogen cycle consists of a web of microbially mediated redox transformations. Among the most crucial reactions in this cycle is the oxidation of ammonia to nitrite, an obligately aerobic process performed by a limited number of lineages of ...

A review of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea in Chinese soils [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Ammonia (NH3) oxidation, the first and rate-limiting step of nitrification, is a key step in the global Nitrogen (N) cycle. Major advances have been made in recent years in our knowledge and understanding of the microbial communities involved ammonia ...

Selective Enrichment of Nitrososphaera viennensis-Like Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaea over Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria from Drinking Water Biofilms [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) can oxidize ammonia to nitrite for energy gain. They have been detected in chloraminated drinking water distribution systems (DWDS) along with the more common ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria

Ammonia oxidizers offset acidification stress via adaptive substrate affinity in aquatic ecosystems [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsAmmonia oxidation, a critical nitrogen cycle process, exhibits contradictory responses to aquatic acidification, and the underlying mechanism remains unresolved. Here, through pH manipulation experiments across diverse ecosystems and with a model ammonia-
