The Elusive Boreal Forest Thaumarchaeota [PDF]
Agronomy, 2016 In recent years, Archaea have, with increasing frequency, been found to colonize both agricultural and forest soils in temperate and boreal regions. The as yet uncultured group I.1c of the Thaumarchaeota has been of special interest.

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Ammonia-Oxidizing Thaumarchaeota in Distinct Arctic Water Masses [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 One of the most abundant archaeal groups on Earth is the Thaumarchaeota. They are recognized as major contributors to marine ammonia oxidation, a crucial step in the biogeochemical cycling of nitrogen.

Dynamics of autotrophic marine planktonic thaumarchaeota in the East China Sea. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The ubiquitous and abundant distribution of ammonia-oxidizing Thaumarchaeota in marine environments is now well documented, and their crucial role in the global nitrogen cycle has been highlighted. However, the potential contribution of Thaumarchaeota in

Expansion of Thaumarchaeota habitat range is correlated with horizontal transfer of ATPase operons. [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2019 Thaumarchaeota are responsible for a significant fraction of ammonia oxidation in the oceans and in soils that range from alkaline to acidic. However, the adaptive mechanisms underpinning their habitat expansion remain poorly understood.

Gene duplication drives genome expansion in a major lineage of Thaumarchaeota [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 Ammonia-oxidising archaea of the phylum Thaumarchaeota are important organisms in the nitrogen cycle. Using 12 new genomes, this study finds evidence that Nitrososphaerales evolution was marked by lateral gene transfer followed by gene duplication.

Environmental Controls on Crenarchaeol Distributions in Hydrothermal Springs [PDF]
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 2, February 2026.The optimal pH and temperature for crenarchaeol (a unique archaeal lipid) production in hydrothermal springs are 7.4°C and 46°C, respectively, which has important implications for archaeal evolution. Our study also indicates that pH is the most important environmental variable for archaeal lipid membrane compositions.

Comparative Genomics Reveals Ecological and Evolutionary Insights into Sponge-Associated
mSystems, 2019 Thaumarchaeota are frequently reported to associate with marine sponges (phylum Porifera); however, little is known about the features that distinguish them from their free-living thaumarchaeal counterparts.
