Cultivation‐Based Detection of a Novel High‐GC Nitrospira Derived From the Argentinian Copahue Volcano Area

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2026.
In this cultivation‐based study, two novel moderately thermophilic Nitrospira enrichments were obtained from the geothermal field Las Máquinas in the Neuquén Province, Argentina. Both nitrite oxidizers, belonging to lineage V or the novel taxonomic lineage VIII, contain quorum‐sensing genes and a high genome GC content of 60.6% and 69.4%.

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.

Evaluation of the process performance of comammox-like nitrospira dominant down-flow hanging sponge reactor with reduced nitrous oxide emissions

Water Research X
Nitrification/denitrification mitigates excess nitrogen in wastewater and reduces nutrient pollution in recipient surface waters but emits substantial amounts of nitrous oxide (N₂O).

Light-weight oxygen supply for portable biological nitrogen removal from urine and sweat

Chemical Engineering Journal Advances, 2022
The weight or availability of potable water often limits foot travel into remote arid regions for recreational, or government-sponsored activities. To address this limitation, a portable bioprocessing unit, intended to be one treatment stage in the ...

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.

Nitrification inhibitor chlorate and nitrogen substrates differentially affect comammox Nitrospira in a grassland soil

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionThrough the combined use of two nitrification inhibitors, Dicyandiamide (DCD) and chlorate with nitrogen amendment, this study aimed to investigate the contribution of comammox Nitrospira clade B, ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and archaea (

Comparison of Biochar- and Lime-Adjusted pH Changes in N₂O Emissions and Associated Microbial Communities in a Tropical Tea Plantation Soil

Agronomy, 2023
The use of biochar and lime (CaO) is a common approach to mitigating soil acidification. However, little is known about how biochar and lime amendments impact N2O emissions and potential microbial mechanisms.

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.

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

Nature 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 ...

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.
