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 ...

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.

Urease-Encoding Genes in Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria [PDF]
ABSTRACT Many but not all ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) produce urease (urea amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.5) and are capable of using urea for chemolithotrophic growth. We sequenced the urease operons from two AOB, the β-proteobacterium Nitrosospira sp.

Nitrification directly contributes to the ammonia removal in sponges and it plays an indispensable role in sponge-mediated nitrogen cycle. Previous studies have demonstrated genomic evidences of nitrifying lineages in the sponge Theonella swinhoei ...

Ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms perform the first step of nitrification, the oxidation of ammonia to nitrite. The bacterium Nitrosomonas europaea is the best-characterized ammonia oxidizer to date. Exposure to hypoxic conditions has a profound effect on

Forest disturbance increases soil nitrification rates in temperate ecosystems, but little is understood regarding contributions of newly discovered complete ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (i.e., comammox) to this important ecosystem process. We sampled soils

Isolation of Ammonia‐oxidizing Autotrophic Bacteria
SUMMARY Procedures are described for isolating ammonia‐oxidizing autotrophic bacteria in pure culture, using solid media made from purified agar and appropriate micromanipulations.

Competition between Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria and Benthic Microalgae [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe abundance, activity, and diversity of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) were studied in prepared microcosms with and without microphytobenthic activity. In the microcosm without alga activity, both AOB abundance, estimated by real-time PCR, and potential nitrification increased during the course of the experiment.
