Copper availability controls niche differentiation between comammox Nitrospira and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria

open access: yesISME Communications
Abstract The biological oxidation of ammonia, the first step of nitrification, is central to biological water purification processes for nitrogen removal. For drinking water treatment, particularly sourced from groundwater, low concentrations of available copper often limit the efficiency of nitrification.

Metatranscriptomic analysis reveals synergistic activities of comammox and anammox bacteria in full-scale attached growth nitrogen removal system

open access: yesEnvironmental Science & Technology
0- Abstract Leveraging comammox Nitrospira and anammox bacteria for shortcut nitrogen removal can drastically lower the carbon footprint of wastewater treatment facilities by decreasing aeration energy, carbon, alkalinity, and tank volume requirements while also ...

Arbuscular mycorrhiza suppresses microbial abundance, and particularly that of ammonia oxidizing bacteria, in agricultural soils

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Interactions between arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and ammonia-oxidizing (AO) microorganisms, two important microbial guilds contributing to soil-plant mineral nutrient cycling, are complex, given the high variability of soil biological, physical ...

The long-term effects of using nitrite and urea on the enrichment of comammox bacteria

Science of the Total Environment, 2021
The discovery of complete ammonia oxidizer (comammox) was a breakthrough in the study of nitrification. However, slow growth of comammox bacteria makes it challenging to distinguish them from traditional ammonia oxidizing microorganisms. Genomic data indicated that comammox bacteria encoded genes that can metabolize urea and had higher nitrite ...

Diversity and abundance of comammox bacteria in the sediments of an urban lake [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Microbiology, 2020
Although comammox have been discovered in a variety of ecosystems, there are few studies in urban lakes. This paper attempted to confirm whether this ammonia-oxidizing microbe exists in urban lakes and to determine the factors influencing its existence.This study investigated the diversity and abundance of comammox bacteria in sediments of a typical ...

Biogeographic distribution of comammox bacteria in diverse terrestrial habitats

Science of the Total Environment, 2020
Comammox, the microbial group capable of completely oxidizing ammonia to nitrate, challenged the traditional two-step nitrification process where ammonia is oxidized by ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB), and nitrite by nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB).

Comammox bacteria predominate among ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms in municipal but not in refinery wastewater treatment plants

Journal of Environmental Management, 2022
Comammox bacteria have proved to be one dominant and significant ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms (AOMs) in municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), however, it still remains unknown about their abundance and diversity in industrial WWTPs. In this study, activated sludge samples from 8 municipal WWTPs and 6 industrial WWTPs treating refinery ...

Effects of dam building on the occurrence and activity of comammox bacteria in river sediments and their contribution to nitrification

Science of The Total Environment, 2022
The recent discovery of complete ammonia oxidizers (comammox) has fundamentally changed our understanding of nitrification. However, studies on the occurrence and activity of comammox bacteria and their contribution to nitrification remain unclear. Here, we investigated the abundance, activity, and diversity of comammox bacteria and their contribution ...

Predominance of comammox bacteria among ammonia oxidizers under low dissolved oxygen condition

Chemosphere, 2022
Although low-oxygen nitrification can significantly cut down the aeration demand in wastewater treatment plants, little is known about the community dynamics of relevant microorganisms under different oxygen concentrations. Here, by conducting a series of bioreactors with oxygen concentrations of 0%, 2%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 40%, and 70%, we provided a ...

The abundance of comammox bacteria was higher than that of ammonia-oxidizing archaea and bacteria in rhizosphere of emergent macrophytes in a typical shallow lake riparian

International Microbiology, 2023
Complete ammonia oxidation (comammox) bacteria can complete the whole nitrification process independently, which not only challenges the classical two-step nitrification theory but also updates long-held perspective of microbial ecological relationship in nitrification process.
