Research progress on the physiological metabolic mechanisms and distribution in water treatment systems of ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms

open access: yesGongye shui chuli
Nitrification and denitrification processes play crucial roles in biological nitrogen removal in water treatment systems. The ammonia oxidation in nitrification is the rate-limiting process, which converts low-valent ammonia-nitrogen into high-valent ...

Evaluation of combined root exudate and rhizosphere microbiota sampling approaches to elucidate plant–soil–microbe interactions

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Deciphering the root exudate‐driven interplay between plants and the rhizosphere microbiota is essential for understanding plant adaptation to the environment and future‐proofing crop production. However, sampling root exudates and rhizosphere soil remains challenging due to the low throughput and destructive nature of the process.

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1582-1605, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

The Elbe Estuary Microbiome Shifts With Salinity and Discharge and Depends on Fresh Organic Matter and Nutrient Availability

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Microbial diversity within the Elbe Estuary was found to be more strongly governed by seasonal variability, salinity, and discharge than by spatial heterogeneity. Oligohaline regions sustain high diversity, while nutrient and redox conditions drive functional shifts.

Microbial communities and bioactive compounds in marine sponges of the family Irciniidae-a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Marine sponges harbour complex microbial communities of ecological and biotechnological importance. Here, we propose the application of the widespread sponge family Irciniidae as an appropriate model in microbiology and biochemistry research. Half a gram

Diversity, Physiology, and Niche Differentiation of Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaea [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012
ABSTRACT Nitrification, the aerobic oxidation of ammonia to nitrate via nitrite, has been suggested to have been a central part of the global biogeochemical nitrogen cycle since the oxygenation of Earth. The cultivation of several ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) as well as the discovery that archaeal ammonia monooxygenase (

Ecophysiological Characterization of Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaea and Bacteria from Freshwater [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012
ABSTRACT Aerobic biological ammonia oxidation is carried out by two groups of microorganisms, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and the recently discovered ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA). Here we present a study using cultivation-based methods to investigate the differences in growth of three AOA cultures and one AOB culture ...

Production Performance and Ameliorative Effects of Switchgrass on Severely Saline‐Alkali Land in Coastal Areas of China

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 6, June 2026.
Switchgrass cultivation sustained biomass production while rapidly improving soil structure and reducing salinity in coastal saline‐alkali soils. These changes reshaped microbial communities through environmental filtering, establishing plant‐soil‐microbe feedbacks that support both bioenergy production and ecological restoration.

A temperate river estuary is a sink for methanotrophs adapted to extremes of pH, temperature and salinity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
River Tyne (UK) estuarine sediments harbour a genetically and functionally diverse community of methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs), the composition and activity of which were directly influenced by imposed environmental conditions (pH, salinity ...

The response of nitrifier, N-fixer and denitrifier gene copy numbers to the nitrification inhibitor 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2013
A laboratory incubation experiment was conducted to examine the effects of 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) on the transformation of urea-N and associated microbial communities in a low-fertility brown soil. The soil was supplied with urea at 180 kg
