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

Nitrogen source influences the interactions of comammox bacteria with aerobic nitrifiers

Microbiology Spectrum
While the co-existence of comammox Nitrospira with canonical nitrifiers is well documented in diverse ecosystems, there is still a dearth of knowledge about the mechanisms underpinning their interactions.

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 ...

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

Growth of comammox Nitrospira is inhibited by nitrification inhibitors in agricultural soils [PDF]

Journal of Soils and Sediments, 2019
The discovery of comammox Nitrospira being capable of complete oxidising ammonia to nitrate radically challenged the conventional concept of two-step nitrification. However, the response of comammox Nitrospira to nitrification inhibitors (NIs) and their role in soil nitrification remain largely unknown, which has hindered our ability to predict the ...

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

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.
