The microbiome of pest insects: it is not just bacteria (2019, background): “, 2018), which also revealed that these organisms play important roles in the nitrogen cycling in soils – a function that was discovered not much more than a decade ago (Treusch et al., 2005).”
Bacteria rather than Archaea dominate microbial ammonia oxidation in an agricultural soil. (2009, background): “Although the observation of archaeal amoA messenger RNA in soil indicates that amoA genes are transcribed (Treusch et al., 2005; Leininger et al., 2006; Chen et al., 2008; Nicol et al., 2008; Tourna et al., 2008), this does not necessarily mean that Archaea use ammonia oxidation as exclusive energy ”
Responses of bacterial and archaeal ammonia oxidizers to soil organic and fertilizer amendments under long-term management (2010, background): “…were reported already in the late 1800’s (Winogradsky, 1890), while 51 it took a further 100 years to discover the other group of ammonia oxidizers; i.e. the ammonia 52 oxidizing archaea (AOA) belonging to the Crenarchaeota (Venter et al., 2004; Könneke et al., 53 2005; Treusch et al., 2005).”
New processes and players in the nitrogen cycle: the microbial ecology of anaerobic and archaeal ammonia oxidation (2007, background): “For example, AOA, AOB, anammox bacteria and denitrifiers all appear to possess nitrite reductase (nirK/S) genes (Casciotti and Ward, 2001; Treusch et al., 2005; Strous et al., 2006; Hallam et al., 2006b; Cantera and Stein, 2007).”
Soil pH and biome are both key determinants of soil archaeal community structure (2015, background): “ammonia oxidation (K€ onneke et al., 2005; Treusch et al., 2005) and thus are important in the global nitrogen cycle.”
Current insights into the autotrophic thaumarchaeal ammonia oxidation in acidic soils (2012, background): “metagenomic studies and cultivation-dependent analyses revealed a novel archaeal group capable of oxidizing ammonia, which was completely overlooked in previous studies (Venter et al., 2004; Könneke et al., 2005; Treusch et al., 2005).”
Abundance and community structure of ammonia-oxidizing archaea and bacteria in an acid paddy soil (2011, background): “In the last few years, the traditional view of ammonia oxidation has been changed by the discovery of the amoA gene associated with the domain archaea (Venter et al. 2004; Könneke et al. 2005; Treusch et al. 2005), suggesting that ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) may be another group of ammonia oxidi”
Ecology of Denitrifying Prokaryotes in Agricultural Soil (2007, background): “ammonia oxidizers within the chrenoarcheota, possess the nirK gene encoding the denitrification NO 2 reductase (Treush et al., 2005), which suggests that they can perform at least one step of the denitrification pathway.”
The influence of soil pH on the diversity, abundance and transcriptional activity of ammonia oxidizing archaea and bacteria. (2008, background): “The inclusion of marine and soil reference taxa [including those sequences from soil fosmid clone 54d9 (Treusch et al., 2005), C. symbiosum (Hallam et al., 2006) and N. maritimus (Könneke et al., 2005)] provided anchors for inferring congruence.”
