Nitrite Oxidizer Activity and Community Are More Responsive Than Their Abundance to Ammonium-Based Fertilizer in an Agricultural Soil

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Autotrophic nitrification is mediated by ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) or ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB). Mounting studies have examined the impact of nitrogen (N) fertilization on the dynamic and diversity of AOA

Meta-analysis reveals ammonia-oxidizing bacteria respond more strongly to nitrogen addition than ammonia-oxidizing archaea [PDF]

, 2016
Shifts in microbial communities driven by anthropogenic nitrogen (N) addition have broad-scale ecological consequences. However, responses of microbial groups to exogenous N supply vary considerably across studies, hindering efforts to predict community ...

Hydrazine Synthase From Anammox Is Inhibited by Linear and Aromatic Alkynes

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.
Linear and aromatic alkynes inhibit anammox in culture and in wetlands. The inhibition by alkynes is specific to the hydrazine synthase, a key enzyme in the anammox pathway. ABSTRACT N2O emissions by nitrifiers are often estimated using selective inhibitors, such as 1‐alkynes.

Heterologous plastoquinone production using a newly identified O2‐dependent cyanobacterial hydroxylase

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 6, Page 1708-1726, March 2026.
In this study, we confirm that PlqH is the hydroxylase operating in plastoquinone biosynthesis in photosynthetic cyanobacteria (Cyanobacteriia). Our phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that cyanobacterial PlqH homologues originated from hydroxylases involved in ubiquinone biosynthesis in bacteria. Plastoquinone production in Escherichia coli was achieved

Cultivation and Transcriptional Analysis of a Canonical Nitrospira Under Stable Growth Conditions

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) are vital players in the global nitrogen cycle that convert nitrite to nitrate during the second step of nitrification.

Disturbance-based management of ecosystem services and disservices in partial nitritation-anammox biofilms

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2022
The resistance and resilience provided by functional redundancy, a common feature of microbial communities, is not always advantageous. An example is nitrite oxidation in partial nitritation-anammox (PNA) reactors designed for nitrogen removal in ...

Population Dynamics and Community Composition of Ammonia Oxidizers in Salt Marshes after the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill [PDF]

, 2016
The recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico had significant effects on microbial communities in the Gulf, but impacts on nitrifying communities in adjacent salt marshes have not been investigated.

Community Composition and Abundance of Bacterial, Archaeal and Nitrifying Populations in Savanna Soils on Contrasting Bedrock Material in Kruger National Park, South Africa [PDF]

, 2016
Savannas cover at least 13% of the global terrestrial surface and are often nutrient limited, especially by nitrogen. To gain a better understanding of their microbial diversity and the microbial nitrogen cycling in savanna soils, soil samples were ...

Environmental Risk Assessment and Anti‐Corrosion Efficacy of Safe‐by‐Design Nitrite‐Based Nanomaterials for Maritime Applications

Nano Select, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
The environmental behavior and impact of anti‐corrosion nanoadditives, ZnAl‐NO2 and MgAl‐NO2 layered double hydroxides (LDH), are assessed under marine conditions. These nanomaterials show instability in water but exhibit no or low toxicity to most tested marine species.

Growing media constituents determine the microbial nitrogen conversions in organic growing media for horticulture [PDF]

, 2016
Vegetables and fruits are an important part of a healthy food diet, however, the eco-sustainability of the production of these can still be significantly improved.
