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

Frontiers 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 ...

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 ...

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

Mol Biol Evol
Abstract Evolution 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 ...

Comparison of Novel and Established Nitrification Inhibitors Relevant to Agriculture on Soil Ammonia- and Nitrite-Oxidizing Isolates

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Nitrification inhibitors (NIs) applied to soil reduce nitrogen fertilizer losses from agro-ecosystems. NIs that are currently registered for use in agriculture appear to selectively inhibit ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), while their impact on other ...

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

Frontiers 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

Ecotoxicology 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 ...

Ammonia-oxidizing archaea and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria communities respond differently in oxy-gen-limited habitats

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) are the most important ammonia oxidation functional community, while the coastal environment just provides a different oxygen environment for the ammonia oxidation process.

Alcohols as inhibitors of ammonia oxidizing archaea and bacteria

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2023
Abstract Ammonia oxidizers are key players in the global nitrogen cycle and are responsible for the oxidation of ammonia to nitrite, which is further oxidized to nitrate by other microorganisms. Their activity can lead to adverse effects on some human-impacted environments, including water pollution through leaching of nitrate and ...
