Mesophilic crenarchaeota: proposal for a third archaeal phylum, the Thaumarchaeota (2008, background): “Mesophilic crenarchaeota comprise organisms that are probably important participants in the global carbon and nitrogen cycle”
Quantitative analyses of the abundance and composition of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and ammonia-oxidizing archaea of a Chinese upland red soil under long-term fertilization practices. (2007, background): “…found to be abundant in natural environments such as water column, sediments, activated sludge bioreactors and soils (Francis et al., 2005; Park et al., 2006), and they may be the most abundant group of ammonia oxidizers in soil and oceanic ecosystems (Leininger et al., 2006; Wuchter et al., 2006).”
Relative contributions of archaea and bacteria to aerobic ammonia oxidation in the environment. (2008, background): “Subsequent studies have revealed a global distribution of crenarchaeal amoA sequences in, for example, marine waters (Wuchter et al., 2006), estuarine sediments (Beman and Francis, 2006), corals (Beman et al., 2007), sponges (Steger et al., 2008), soil (Leininger et al., 2006), wastewater…”
Bacteria rather than Archaea dominate microbial ammonia oxidation in an agricultural soil. (2009, background): “C-bicarbonate labelling ( Wuchter et al., 2003 ).”
Microbial Nitrogen Cycling in Estuaries: From Genes to Ecosystem Processes (2018, background): “Quantitative analyses of ammonia-oxidizing populations suggested that AOA vastly outnumbered AOB in many environments (Leininger et al. 2006; Wuchter et al. 2006; Caffrey et al. 2007; Francis et al. 2007; Beman et al. 2008; Santoro et al. 2010).”
Standing stocks and activity of Archaea and Bacteria in the western Arctic Ocean (2007, background): “Ammonium oxidizers in the North Sea were dominated by Archaea (Crenarchaeota), more so than Bacteria, according to data on ammonium monooxygenase gene abundance (Wuchter et al. 2006).”
Production of oceanic nitrous oxide by ammonia-oxidizing archaea (2012, positive): “in various oceanic regions (Wuchter et al., 2006; Santoro et al., 2010; Lam et al., 2009; Francis et al., 2005; Church et al., 2009).”
Nitrification in Marine Systems (2008, positive): “Abundance estimates based on FISH indicate that AOA outnumber AOB in the open ocean by as much as 1000-fold (Wuchter et al., 2006).”
Nitrification driven by bacteria and not archaea in nitrogen-rich grassland soils (2009, background): “Ammonia-oxidizing archaea are present in large numbers in the ocea”
Community structure of marine bacterioplankton: patterns, networks, and relationships to function (2008, neutral): “Wuchter et al. (2006) and Herfort et al. (2007) compared crenarchaeal counts with amoA gene copy numbers by QPCR, and found that they were highly correlated.”
Nitrous oxide emissions from grazed grassland as affected by a nitrification inhibitor, dicyandiamide, and relationships with ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea (2010, background): “Recently, however, the amoA gene has also been found in the domain Archaea, suggesting the possible presence of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA; Venter et al. 2004; Könneke et al. 2005; Francis et al. 2005; Wuchter et al. 2006).”
Growth, activity and temperature responses of ammonia-oxidizing archaea and bacteria in soil microcosms. (2008, background): “In marine environments, the abundance of amo genes appears to be correlated with ammonia oxidation (Wuchter et al., 2006).”
