Sediments From a Seasonally Euxinic Coastal Ecosystem Show High Nitrogen Cycling Potential

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2025.
The nitrogen cycling potential of sediments from seasonally euxinic Lake Grevelingen was investigated through incubation experiments and 16S rRNA amplicon and shotgun metagenome sequencing. The sediments have a high potential for nitrification, denitrification, and DNRA, but not for anammox. ABSTRACT Coastal ecosystems are susceptible to eutrophication

Plant–microbe interactions drive the rhizosphere microbial assembly and nitrogen cycling in a subtropical forest

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 5, Page 1274-1287, May 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Interactions between plants and soil microorganisms in the rhizosphere are vital for maintaining the nutrient cycle and stability of terrestrial ecosystems. Nitrogen, closely related to carbon (C) cycling and ecosystem productivity, undergoes transformation by soil ...

Compound drought-heat legacies promote the contribution of comammox Nitrospira to N2O emissions: as evidenced from both acidic and alkaline soils

Geoderma
The responses of complete ammonia oxidization (comammox) to compound drought and heat and their contributions to post-drought nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions remain unclear.

Probe Capture Enrichment Sequencing of amoA Genes Improves the Detection of Diverse Ammonia‐Oxidising Archaeal and Bacterial Populations

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 3, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The ammonia monooxygenase subunit A (amoA) gene has been used to investigate the phylogenetic diversity, spatial distribution and activity of ammonia‐oxidising archaeal (AOA) and bacterial (AOB), which contribute significantly to the nitrogen cycle in various ecosystems. Amplicon sequencing of amoA is a widely used method; however, it produces

Ammonium oxidation by bacteria and archaea have functional implications for nitrification across a forested landscape

Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Ammonia‐oxidizing archaea (AOA) and ammonia‐oxidizing bacteria (AOB) control nitrification in terrestrial systems. Soil pH and substrate availability (NH4+) can influence community composition, which may affect the contributions of these organisms to nitrification in forest soils. Using high‐throughput sequencing, we identified the amoA of AOA

Using off‐gas testing to map mixing gradients and audit blower capacity

Water Environment Research, Volume 96, Issue 11, November 2024.
The payback of partial or complete blower replacement may not be justified even in the event of excessive aeration, and sequencing of aeration system improvements including diffuser replacement, process controls, and blower modifications/improvements should be considered and evaluated together.

Temporal enrichment of comammox Nitrospira and Ca. Nitrosocosmicus in a coastal plastisphere

The ISME Journal
Abstract Plastic marine debris is known to harbor a unique microbiome (termed the “plastisphere”) that can be important in marine biogeochemical cycles. However, the temporal dynamics in the plastisphere and their implications for marine biogeochemistry remain poorly understood.

Stabilization of nitrite in the presence of the nitrification inhibitor allylthiourea (ATU) in freshwater nitrification rate measurements

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 22, Issue 10, Page 752-758, October 2024.
Abstract Nitrification rate measurements provide critical information on the performance of an environmental process central to the N cycle and are best studied using isotope labeling techniques. However, combining the high sensitivity of isotope labeling techniques with selected inhibition of nitrifiers as a whole or of specific nitrifier guilds has ...
