Hot spring distribution and survival mechanisms of thermophilic comammox Nitrospira
Abstract The recent discovery of Nitrospira species capable of complete ammonia oxidation (comammox) in non-marine natural and engineered ecosystems under mesothermal conditions has changed our understanding of microbial nitrification.

Competitive and substrate limited environments drive metabolic heterogeneity for comammox Nitrospira
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).

Genomic profiling of Nitrospira species reveals ecological success of comammox Nitrospira [PDF]
Abstract Nitrification was long thought to consist in the stepwise oxidation of ammonia to nitrite and of nitrite to nitrate by ammonia oxidizing and nitrite oxidizing microorganisms, respectively. Recently, single microorganisms capable of complete ammonia to nitrate oxidation (comammox) were identified in the

Sustained nitrogen loss in a symbiotic association of Comammox Nitrospira and Anammox bacteria [PDF]
ABSTRACT The discovery of complete aerobic and anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (Comammox and Anammox) significantly altered our understanding of the global nitrogen cycle. A high affinity for ammonia ( K m(app),NH3 ≈ 63nM) and oxygen place the first described ...

Autotrophic nitrification is regulated by canonical ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB). To date, most studies have focused on the role of canonical ammonia oxidizers in nitrification while neglecting ...
