Genomic profiling of Nitrospira species reveals ecological success of comammox Nitrospira [PDF]
Microbiome, 2022 Background The discovery of microorganisms capable of complete ammonia oxidation to nitrate (comammox) has prompted a paradigm shift in our understanding of nitrification, an essential process in N cycling, hitherto considered to require both ammonia ...
