Biogeography of anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria are able to oxidize ammonia and reduce nitrite to produce N2 gas. After being discovered in a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), anammox bacteria were subsequently characterized in natural environments ...

Dating Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria with Abundant Eukaryotic Fossils. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Biol Evol
AbstractEvolution of a complete nitrogen cycle relies on the onset of ammonia oxidation, which aerobically converts ammonia to nitrogen oxides. However, accurate estimation of the antiquity of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) remains challenging because AOB-specific fossils are absent and bacterial fossils amenable to calibrate bacterial molecular ...

Shifts of ammonia-oxidation process along salinity gradient in an estuarine wetland

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) play an important role in nitrogen (N) cycling of the estuarine sediments. However, the shifts of potential ammonia oxidation rates (PARs) of AOA and AOB along different salinity ...

Genomic insight into strategy, interaction and evolution of nitrifiers in metabolizing key labile-dissolved organic nitrogen in different environmental niches

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB), nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB), and complete ammonia oxidizers (comammox) are responsible for nitrification in nature; however, some groups have been reported to utilize labile-dissolved organic ...

Individual and combined contamination of oxytetracycline and cadmium inhibited nitrification by inhibiting ammonia oxidizers

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
IntroductionThe large-scale development of animal husbandry and industrialization lead to more and more serious co-contamination from heavy metals and antibiotics in soils.

The network of nitrifying and pathogenic prokaryotic interactions in a recirculating aquaculture system of a sole (Solea senegalensis) hatchery

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Prokaryotic interactions in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) environmental communities may play a crucial role in driving their functional potential. However, these interactions are often neglected.

Impacts of urea and 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate on nitrification, targeted ammonia oxidizers, non-targeted nitrite oxidizers, and bacteria in two contrasting soils

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
This study explored the effects of combined urea and 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) on several components critical to the soil system: net nitrification rates; communities of targeted ammonia oxidizers [ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria

Community composition and abundance of complete ammonia oxidation (comammox) bacteria in the Lancang River cascade reservoir

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
The construction of the reservoir has changed the nitrogen migration and transformation processes in the river, and a large amount of sediment deposition in the reservoir may also lead to the spatial differentiation of complete ammonia oxidation ...

Microbial Nitrogen Metabolism in Chloraminated Drinking Water Reservoirs

open access: yesmSphere, 2020
Ammonia availability due to chloramination can promote the growth of nitrifying organisms, which can deplete chloramine residuals and result in operational problems for drinking water utilities.
