Coupling of diversification and pH adaptation during the evolution of terrestrial Thaumarchaeota [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2015
Significance The link between species diversification and adaptation has long interested biologists working on multicellular eukaryotes, but remains poorly understood in prokaryotes, in which diversity is much greater. We tested the hypothesis that diversification is associated with environmental adaptation in Thaumarchaeota, an ...

Single-cell genomics shedding light on marine Thaumarchaeota diversification [PDF]

open access: yesISME Journal, 2013
Abstract Previous studies based on analysis of amoA, 16S ribosomal RNA or accA gene sequences have established that marine Thaumarchaeota fall into two phylogenetically distinct groups corresponding to shallow- and deep-water clades, but it is not clear how water depth interacts with other environmental factors, including light ...

The Phylum Thaumarchaeota

2014
Thaumarchaeota represent a unique phylum within the domain Archaea that embraces ammonia-oxidizing organisms from soil, marine waters, and hot springs (currently two pure cultures and 13 enrichments), as well as many lineages represented only by environmental sequences from virtually every abitat that has been screened.

Mesophilic crenarchaeota: proposal for a third archaeal phylum, the Thaumarchaeota

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2008
The archaeal domain is currently divided into two major phyla, the Euryarchaeota and Crenarchaeota. During the past few years, diverse groups of uncultivated mesophilic archaea have been discovered and affiliated with the Crenarchaeota. It was recently recognized that these archaea have a major role in geochemical cycles.

Constraining the composition and quantity of organic matter used by abundant marine Thaumarchaeota

Environmental Microbiology, 2022
Abstract Marine Group I (MGI) Thaumarchaeota were originally described as chemoautotrophic nitrifiers, but molecular and isotopic evidence suggests heterotrophic and/or mixotrophic capabilities. Here, we investigated the quantity and composition of organic matter assimilated by individual, uncultured MGI cells from the Pacific Ocean ...

Generalized Soil Thaumarchaeota Community in Weathering Rock and Saprolite

Microbial Ecology, 2014
Relatively little is known of the archaeal communities associated with endolithic environments, compared to other microbial groups such as bacteria and fungi. Analyzing the pyrosequenced archaeal 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene V1-V3 region, we investigated the archaeal community associated with aboveground-exfoliated weathering layers of a granite ...

[A novel archaeal phylum: thaumarchaeota--a review].

Wei sheng wu xue bao = Acta microbiologica Sinica, 2012
Based on the archaeal 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic tree, the archaeal domain is divided into two major phyla, Euryarchaeota and Crenarchaeota. During the past 20 years, diverse groups of archaea have been found to be widely distributed in moderate environments with the rapid development and application of molecular techniques in microbial ecology ...

Niche Partitioning and Intraspecific Variation of Thaumarchaeota in Deep Ocean Sediments

Environmental Microbiology
ABSTRACT Deep‐sea sediments contain a large number of Thaumarchaeota that are phylogenetically distinct from their pelagic counterparts. However, their ecology and evolutionary adaptations are not well understood.

Characterization of Thaumarchaeota isolated from the Northern Adriatic Sea

2014
The discovery of ubiquitous ammonia-oxidizing Thaumarchaota in aquatic and terrestrial environments has led to an increased interest to further understand their physiology and ecological function. Here we report the physiological and genomic characterization of two Nitrosopumilus isolates (D3C and NF5) originating from the surface waters of the ...
