Genomic profiling of Nitrospira species reveals ecological success of comammox Nitrospira

Microbiome, 2022
Background The discovery of microorganisms capable of complete ammonia oxidation to nitrate (comammox) has prompted a paradigm shift in our understanding of nitrification, an essential process in N cycling, hitherto considered to require both ammonia ...

Evolutionary Ecology of Natural Comammox Nitrospira Populations [PDF]

mSystems, 2022
Microbes commonly exist in diverse and complex communities where species interact, and their genomic repertoires evolve over time. Our understanding of species interaction and evolution has increased during the last decades, but most studies of ...

Hot spring distribution and survival mechanisms of thermophilic comammox Nitrospira

The ISME Journal, 2023
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

ISME Communications, 2023
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).

Relevance and diversity of Nitrospira populations in biofilters of brackish RAS. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Lithoautotrophic nitrite-oxidizing bacterial populations from moving-bed biofilters of brackish recirculation aquaculture systems (RAS; shrimp and barramundi) were tested for their metabolic activity and phylogenetic diversity.

Genomic Analysis of Two Phylogenetically Distinct Nitrospira Species Reveals Their Genomic Plasticity and Functional Diversity

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The genus Nitrospira represents a dominant group of nitrite-oxidizing bacteria in natural and engineered ecosystems. This genus is phylogenetically divided into six lineages, for which vast phylogenetic and functional diversity has been revealed by ...

Nitrification inhibitor chlorate and nitrogen substrates differentially affect comammox Nitrospira in a grassland soil

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionThrough the combined use of two nitrification inhibitors, Dicyandiamide (DCD) and chlorate with nitrogen amendment, this study aimed to investigate the contribution of comammox Nitrospira clade B, ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and archaea (

AmoA-Targeted Polymerase Chain Reaction Primers for the Specific Detection and Quantification of Comammox Nitrospira in the Environment

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Nitrification, the oxidation of ammonia via nitrite to nitrate, has always been considered to be catalyzed by the concerted activity of ammonia- and nitrite-oxidizing microorganisms.

Comammox Nitrospira was the dominant ammonia oxidizer in an acidic biofilm reactor at pH 5.5 and pH 5 [PDF]

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol
Nitrification is a vital process in the biological removal of inorganic nitrogen compounds. In order to ensure the stability and effectiveness of this process, buffer solutions should be added to the system to maintain neutral to slightly alkaline ...

Oxidation kinetics and inverse isotope effect of marine nitrite-oxidizing isolates [PDF]

Environmental Microbiology, 2017
Nitrification, the step-wise oxidation of ammonium to nitrite and nitrate, is important in the marine environment because it produces nitrate, the most abundant marine dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) component and N-source for phytoplankton and ...
