Population Dynamics and Community Composition of Ammonia Oxidizers in Salt Marshes after the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico had significant effects on microbial communities in the Gulf, but impacts on nitrifying communities in adjacent salt marshes have not been investigated.

The contribution of ammonia-oxidizing archaea and bacteria to gross nitrification under different substrate availability

open access: yes, 2021
The first step of autotrophic nitrification is performed by ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB). Recent studies show that their relative contributions are determined by the substrate sources and availability, yet evidence provided by ...

Communities of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, ammonia-oxidizing archaea and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria in shrimp ponds

open access: yesAnnals of Microbiology, 2014
The communities of nitrifying microorganisms were identified in samples taken from six shrimp ponds in Thailand (five outdoor-earthen ponds and one indoor pond). The sequences of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) were analyzed after specific PCR amplification of the 16S rRNA or amoA ...

Low yield and abiotic origin of N2O formed by the complete nitrifier Nitrospira inopinata

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea are major producers of the gases nitrous oxide and nitric oxide. Here, Kits et al. show that a complete ammonia-oxidizing (comammox) bacterium emits nitrous oxide at levels that are comparable to those produced by ...

Responses of Ammonia-Oxidizing Microorganisms to Intercropping Systems in Different Seasons

open access: yesAgriculture, 2021
Intercropping plays an essential role in agricultural production, impacting the soil’s physical and chemical properties and microbial communities. However, the responses of ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms in the continuous-cropping soil to different ...

Expansion of Thaumarchaeota habitat range is correlated with horizontal transfer of ATPase operons. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Thaumarchaeota are responsible for a significant fraction of ammonia oxidation in the oceans and in soils that range from alkaline to acidic. However, the adaptive mechanisms underpinning their habitat expansion remain poorly understood.

Activity enhancement of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria in activated sludge process: metabolite reduction and CO2 mitigation intensification process

open access: yesApplied Water Science, 2019
The interaction of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) is of considerable importance in nitrification process. Ecophysiological interactions between the communities of AOB and NOB were investigated by monitoring NO2− as ...

Competition between Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria and Benthic Microalgae [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2004
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.

Changes in the Species and Functional Composition of Activated Sludge Communities Revealed Mechanisms of Partial Nitrification Established by Ultrasonication

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
To achieve energy-efficient shortcut nitrogen removal of wastewater in the future, selective elimination of nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) while enriching ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms is a crucial step. However, the underlying mechanisms of partial

Effect of Tidal Cycling Rate on the Distribution and Abundance of Nitrogen-Oxidizing Bacteria in a Bench-Scale Fill-and-Drain Bioreactor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Most domestic wastewater can be effectively treated for secondary uses by engineered biological systems. These systems rely on microbial activity to reduce nitrogen (N) content of the reclaimed water.
