Ammonia-oxidizing archaea and complete ammonia-oxidizing Nitrospira in water treatment systems [PDF]
Nitrification, the oxidation of ammonia to nitrate via nitrite, is important for many engineered water treatment systems. The sequential steps of this respiratory process are carried out by distinct microbial guilds, including ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (

A review of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea in Chinese soils [PDF]
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 ...

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