Nanocomposite Reduces Volatile and Aqueous Reactive Nitrogen Losses From Soil Compared to Conventional and Alternative Fertilisers

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Reactive nitrogen losses from agriculture contribute substantially to greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution and ecosystem degradation. Controlled‐release fertiliser technologies offer potential solutions, yet few comprehensively evaluate performance across multiple nitrogen loss pathways and soil types.

Competitive and substrate limited environments drive metabolic heterogeneity for comammox Nitrospira

ISME Communications, 2023
Abstract Nitrospira has been revealed as a high versatile genus. Although previously considered only responsible for the conversion of nitrite to nitrate, now we know that Nitrospira can perform complete ammonia oxidation to nitrate too (comammox).

Hydrological and microbial dynamics in an Arctic wastewater infiltration system

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Passive wastewater treatment systems are widely used in the Arctic, but studies addressing the vadose zone dynamics that influence the operation and performance of subsurface or soil‐based infiltration systems, such as rapid infiltration basins, are rare.

Impact of comammox process on membrane-aerated biofilm reactor for autotrophic nitrogen removal

Water Research X
This study compared the simulation results of the side-stream membrane-aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) in terms of total nitrogen (TN) removal and N2O production obtained by the conventional comammox-exclusive biological nitrogen removal (BNR) model and ...

Genomic and Physiological Characteristics of a Novel Nitrite-Oxidizing Nitrospira Strain Isolated From a Drinking Water Treatment Plant

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) catalyze the second step of nitrification, which is an important process of the biogeochemical nitrogen cycle and is exploited extensively as a biological nitrogen removal process.

Acidification Stimulates N2O Production by Oceanic Nitrifying Bacteria

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Recent studies have shown changes in the production rates of nitrous oxide (N2O) in aerobic seawater in response to ocean acidification (OA). Understanding how N2O production responds to OA is crucial because N2O is a strong greenhouse gas and stratospheric ozone‐depleting substance emitted from the ocean.

Hydrazine Synthase From Anammox Is Inhibited by Linear and Aromatic Alkynes

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.
Linear and aromatic alkynes inhibit anammox in culture and in wetlands. The inhibition by alkynes is specific to the hydrazine synthase, a key enzyme in the anammox pathway. ABSTRACT N2O emissions by nitrifiers are often estimated using selective inhibitors, such as 1‐alkynes.

Unveiling Global Diversity of Patescibacteriota and Functional Interactions with Host Microbes

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 11, 23 February 2026.
Patescibacteriota represents a diverse group of ultra‐small epibiotic bacteria, which is largely overlooked. By integrating ribosomal protein S3‐based community profiling with MAG‐based metabolic potential analyses, this study provides new insights into their distribution, diversity, and potential interactions with other bacteria across diverse ...

It Takes a Village: Discovering and Isolating the Nitrifiers

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
It has been almost 150 years since Jean-Jacques Schloesing and Achille Müntz discovered that the process of nitrification, the oxidation of ammonium to nitrate, is a biological process carried out by microorganisms.

Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 10, 18 February 2026.
SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction
