Oxidation of ammonia to nitrite by bacteria and archaea is responsible for global emissions
of nitrous oxide directly and indirectly through provision of nitrite and, after further oxidation …

The discovery of complete ammonia oxidizers, comammox Nitrospira, represents a
breakthrough in the history of nitrification research. Nitrospira inopinata, which was obtained …

China has experienced a widespread increase in N deposition due to intensive
anthropogenic activities, particularly in the subtropical regions. However, the effects of long …

Biochar and metal-tolerant bacteria have been widely used in the remediation of heavy
metal contaminated soil. However, the synergistic effect of biochar-functional microbes on …

Nitrification is the microbial conversion of reduced forms of nitrogen (N) to nitrate (NO3−),
and in fertilized soils it can lead to substantial N losses via NO3− leaching or nitrous oxide …

Microbial remediation of heavy metals in soil has been widely studied. However,
bioremediation efficiency is limited in practical applications because of nutritional deficiency …

The recent discovery of comammox Nitrospira as complete nitrifiers has fundamentally
renewed perceptions of nitrogen cycling in natural and engineered systems, yet little is …

Petrochemical wastewater is a major industrial source of pollution that produces a variety of
refractory and toxic organic pollutants that are detrimental to animals and plants in natural …

The first and limiting step of nitrification is catalyzed by ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA)
and bacteria (AOB). Recently, complete ammonia oxidizers (comammox Nitrospira) have …

The recent discovery of complete ammonia oxidation (comammox) process in a single
organism challenged the division of labor between two functional groups in the classical two …
