The ocean is home to a diverse and metabolically versatile microbial community that
performs the complex biochemical transformations that drive the nitrogen cycle, including …

Microbial nitrite oxidation is the primary pathway that generates nitrate in wastewater
treatment systems and can be performed by a variety of microbes: namely, nitrite-oxidizing …

Ammonia oxidising archaea are among the most abundant living organisms on Earth and
key microbial players in the global nitrogen cycle. They carry out oxidation of ammonia to …

Ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms (AOM) contribute to one of the largest nitrogen fluxes in
the global nitrogen budget. Four distinct lineages of AOM: ammonia-oxidizing archaea …

The recent discovery of Nitrospira species capable of complete ammonia oxidation
(comammox) in non-marine natural and engineered ecosystems under mesothermal …

The oceanic waters below a depth of 200 m represent, in terms of volume, the largest habitat
of the biosphere, harboring approximately 70% of the prokaryotic biomass in the oceanic …

Nitrogenous waste is a global concern in aquatic ecosystems. In the shrimp farming system,
feeding is the main input of nitrogen, which leads to the accumulation of nitrogenous waste …

Although nitrogen (N) enrichment enhances both soil N availability and soil acidification, it is
difficult to isolate their effects on microbial taxa that drive the soil carbon (C) dynamics under …

The recent discovery of complete ammonia oxidizers (comammox) contradicts the paradigm
that chemolithoautotrophic nitrification is always catalyzed by two different microorganisms …

Research on decentralized wastewaters deserves special focus due to the potential
abundance of emerging organic pollutants including pharmaceutical and personal care …
