The impact of fertilization on ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and comammox Nitrospira communities and the subsequent effect on N2O emission and maize yield in a semi-arid region

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The control of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions through nitrification and the optimization of maize yield are important in agricultural systems. However, within the semi-arid region, the impact of fertilization on the function of nitrification communities ...

Cyclic Conversions in the Nitrogen Cycle

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The cyclic nature of specific conversions in the nitrogen cycle imposes strict limitations to the conversions observed in nature and explains for example why anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) bacteria can only use nitrite – and not nitrate – as ...

Flow-cytometric quantification of microbial cells on sand from water biofilters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Rapid quantification of absolute microbial cell abundances is important for a comprehensive interpretation of microbiome surveys and crucial to support theoretical modelling and the design of engineered systems.

Comammox Nitrospira within the Yangtze River continuum: community, biogeography, and ecological drivers [PDF]

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2020
Abstract The recent discovery of comammox Nitrospira as complete nitrifiers has fundamentally renewed perceptions of nitrogen cycling in natural and engineered systems, yet little is known about the environmental controls on these newly recognized bacteria.

Genomic insight into strategy, interaction and evolution of nitrifiers in metabolizing key labile-dissolved organic nitrogen in different environmental niches

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB), nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB), and complete ammonia oxidizers (comammox) are responsible for nitrification in nature; however, some groups have been reported to utilize labile-dissolved organic ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Hydrological and microbial dynamics in an Arctic wastewater infiltration system

open access: yesVadose 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.

Acidification Stimulates N2O Production by Oceanic Nitrifying Bacteria

open access: yesJournal 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.

Nutrient cycling potential within microbial communities on culturally important stoneworks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Previous studies on microbes associated with deterioration of cultural heritage (CH) stoneworks have revealed a diverse microbiota adapted to stresses such as low nutrients, aridity and high salinity, temperatures and radiation.

Unveiling Global Diversity of Patescibacteriota and Functional Interactions with Host Microbes

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...
