IntroductionRock weathering is crucial in the development of soil. Yet the role of bacteria in the fine particle-forming process of purple mudstone is not fully understood, especially under nitrogen fertilization.MethodsIn this study, the particles (0.25

Genomic Heterogeneity of the Genus Nitrobacter [PDF]
The genomic diversity among 22 Nitrobacter strains was investigated by determining rRNA gene restriction patterns, DNA hybridization characteristics, and DNA base compositions. The guanine-plus-cytosine contents of the DNAs ranged from 58 to 61 mol%. As determined by DNA hybridization (S1 nuclease method), five DNA genomic groups were differentiated ...

Enrichment and identification of a moderately acidophilic nitrite-oxidizing bacterium
This study enriched a novel nitrite-oxidizing bacterium (NOB, ‘Candidatus Nitrobacter acidophilus’) in a laboratory reactor operating at pH 4.5 for treating low-strength ammonia wastewater. Batch experiments showed that ‘Ca. N.

ABSTRACT Disease outbreaks and the associated reliance on antibiotics pose major constraints to the sustainability of modern aquaculture. As regulatory pressures increase and consumer demand shifts toward residue‐free production, diverse biological interventions are gaining prominence as viable alternatives to chemotherapeutics.

Eco-toxicological effects of pesticide residues on soil biological sentinels
This research studied the eco-toxicological effects of pesticide residues on soil biological sentinels. Nitrobacter and Nitrosomonas sp. was isolated from Soil samples gotten from dumpsite in Benin City and cultured using Winogradsky medium.

Coexistence of nitrifying, anammox and denitrifying bacteria in a sequencing batch reactor
Elevated nitrogen removal efficiencies from ammonium-rich wastewaters have been demonstrated by several applications, that combine nitritation and anammox processes. Denitrification will occur simultaneously when organic carbon is also present.

Summary: RNA-sequencing for whole transcriptome analysis requires high-quality RNA in adequate amounts, which can be difficult to generate with low-biomass-producing bacteria where sample volume is limited.

Tillage does not impact soil greenhouse gas emissions in a Central Texas rainfed maize–cotton system
Abstract Agricultural soils are a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily as N2O. Monitoring how management practices impact soil gas fluxes (CO2, CH4, and N2O) is useful for making sure conservation practices (e.g., no‐till) are sustainable with regards to all potential environmental impacts.

Toxic Response of Nitrobacter to Orange II and Direct Blue 71
Tolerance of Nitrobacter to Orange II (C.L. 15510) and Direct Blue 71 (C.I. 34140) dyes was determined by total viable count. There was decrease in percentage log survival with increase in concentration of the toxicants and increase in exposure time ...
