Gene duplication drives genome expansion in Thaumarchaeota [PDF]
, 2020 Abstract Ammonia-oxidising archaea of the phylum Thaumarchaeota are keystone species in global nitrogen cycling. However, only three of the six known families of the terrestrially ubiquitous order Nitrososphaerales possess representative genomes.

Heterotrophic Thaumarchaeota with ultrasmall genomes are widespread in the ocean [PDF]
, 2020 Abstract The Thaumarchaeota comprise a diverse archaeal phylum including numerous lineages that play key roles in global biogeochemical cycling, particularly in the ocean. To date, all genomically-characterized marine Thaumarchaeota are reported to be chemolithoautotrophic ammonia-oxidizers.

Phylogenomics suggests oxygen availability as a driving force in Thaumarchaeota evolution [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2019 Abstract Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) of the phylum Thaumarchaeota are widespread in marine and terrestrial habitats, playing a major role in the global nitrogen cycle. However, their evolutionary history remains unexplored, which limits our understanding of their adaptation mechanisms.

Biogeography of soil Thaumarchaeota in relation to soil depth and land usage [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2016 Although Thaumarchaeota are important contributors to ammonia oxidation in terrestrial habitats, distributions of ammonia oxidizers along soil depth profiles are poorly understood, especially in relation to distinct land usages. Leveraging the close proximity of forest, field and agricultural plots at the RARE: Charitable Research Reserve, we examined ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Previous studies had suggested the presence of ammonium oxidizing Thaumarchaeota as well as nitrite oxidizing Bacteria in the subsurface spring called Franz Josef Quelle (FJQ), a slightly radioactive thermal mineral spring with a temperature of 43.6 ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Archaea are differentiated from the other two domains of life by their biomolecular characteristics. One such characteristic is the unique structure and composition of their lipids.

Ammonia Oxidation in the Ocean can be Inhibited by Nanomolar Concentrations of Hydrogen Peroxide
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016 Marine Thaumarchaeota were discovered over 20 years ago and although a few isolates from this group are now available for study, we do not yet understand the environmental controls on their growth and distribution.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) within the phylum Thaumarchaeota are the only known aerobic ammonia oxidizers in geothermal environments. Although molecular data indicate the presence of phylogenetically diverse AOA from the Nitrosocaldus clade, group 1 ...

Meta-omic signatures of microbial metal and nitrogen cycling in marine oxygen minimum zones
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Iron (Fe) and copper (Cu) are essential cofactors for microbial metalloenzymes, but little is known about the metalloenyzme inventory of anaerobic marine microbial communities despite their importance to the nitrogen cycle. We compared dissolved O2, NO3-,

Different behaviour of methanogenic archaea andThaumarchaeotain rice field microcosms [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2013 Archaea in rice fields play an important role in carbon and nitrogen cycling. They comprise methane-producing Euryarchaeota as well as ammonia-oxidizing Thaumarchaeota, but their community structures and population dynamics have not yet been studied in the same system.
