Hot spring distribution and survival mechanisms of thermophilic comammox Nitrospira
The ISME Journal, 2023 Abstract 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.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Nitrification is the two-step aerobic oxidation of ammonia to nitrate via nitrite in the nitrogen-cycle on earth. However, very limited information is available on how fertilizer regimes affect the distribution of nitrite oxidizers, which are involved in

Functionally relevant diversity of closely related Nitrospira in activated sludge [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2014 Abstract Nitrospira are chemolithoautotrophic nitrite-oxidizing bacteria that catalyze the second step of nitrification in most oxic habitats and are important for excess nitrogen removal from sewage in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs).

A novel marine nitrite-oxidizing Nitrospira species from Dutch coastal North Sea water
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 Marine microorganisms are important for the global nitrogen cycle, but marine nitrifiers, especially aerobic nitrite-oxidizers, remain largely unexplored.

Nitrospira bacteria in paddy soil reduced by biochar application [PDF]
Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment, 2020 AbstractBiochar application can depress nitrification in paddy soils, but the microbiological mechanisms involved in this process are not clearly understood. This study was conducted to test the hypothesis that biochar may affect nitrification bacteria in paddy soils.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Freshwater mussel assemblages of the Upper Mississippi River (UMR) sequester tons of ammonia- and urea-based biodeposits each day and aerate sediment through burrowing activities, thus creating a unique niche for nitrogen (N) cycling microorganisms. This

Effect of the dilution rate on microbial competition: r-strategist can win over k-strategist at low substrate concentration. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The conditions present in both in vitro and in vivo ecosystems determine the microbial population harbouring it. One commonly accepted theory is that a species with a high substrate affinity and low growth rate (k-strategist) will win the competition ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Autotrophic nitrification is regulated by canonical ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB). To date, most studies have focused on the role of canonical ammonia oxidizers in nitrification while neglecting ...
