Nitrification is a key process in the global nitrogen cycle. Complete ammonia oxidizers (comammox) were discovered recently, and only three enrichment cultures and one pure culture have been characterized with respect to activity and growth under ...

Structure and evolution of chlorate reduction composite transposons. [PDF]
UnlabelledThe genes for chlorate reduction in six bacterial strains were analyzed in order to gain insight into the metabolism. A newly isolated chlorate-reducing bacterium (Shewanella algae ACDC) and three previously isolated strains (Ideonella ...

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

The occurrence and role of Nitrospira in nitrogen removal systems
Application of the modern microbial techniques changed the paradigm about the microorganisms performing nitrification. Numerous investigations recognized representatives of the genus Nitrospira as a key and predominant nitrite-oxidizing bacteria in biological nutrient removal systems, especially under low dissolved oxygen and substrate conditions.

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

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 ...

Ammonia-oxidizing archaea and complete ammonia-oxidizing Nitrospira in water treatment systems
Highlights • AOA and comammox Nitrospira dominate low ammonia engineered environments.• Ammonia and metal levels, along with temperature determine the niches of nitrifiers.• Contributions to nitrification cannot be inferred solely by AOA or AOB ...

Bacterial Resilience and Vulnerability to Neonicotinoid Seed Treatments in Soil: Short‐Term Community Responses [PDF]
This study investigated short‐term impacts of seed treatment‐derived neonicotinoids on soil bacterial communities in wheat‐planted microcosms. Over 10 days, significant Day and Day × Treatment effects on bacterial community structure were observed, with selective enrichment and suppression of specific taxa despite limited overall changes in alpha ...

Metagenomic recovery of two distinct comammox Nitrospira from the terrestrial subsurface [PDF]
Summary The recently discovered comammox process encompasses both nitrification steps, the aerobic oxidation of ammonia and nitrite, in a single organism. All known comammox bacteria are affiliated with Nitrospira sublineage II and can be grouped into two distinct clades ...
