Microbial regulation of terrestrial nitrous oxide formation: understanding the biological pathways for prediction of emission rates. (2015, background): “tigations ascribes nitrification activity in acidic soils mainly to AOA (Zhang et al. 2012; Hu et al. 2014a; Hu, Xu and He 2014b), and a recent physiological study found that, among the seven”
Nitrification gene ratio and free ammonia explain nitrite and nitrous oxide production in urea-amended soils (2017, background): “In contrast, AOA have been found to be more important relative to AOB in acid soils (Prosser and Nicol, 2012; Shen et al., 2012; Zhang et al., 2012).”
Responses of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea to nitrogen fertilization and precipitation increment in a typical temperate steppe in Inner Mongolia (2013, background): “Several other tudies have suggested that AOA are mainly responsible for the itrification in acidic soils (Gubry-Rangin et al., 2010; Yao et al., 011; Zhang et al., 2012).”
Different roles of rhizosphere effect and long-term fertilization in the activity and community structure of ammonia oxidizers in a calcareous fluvo-aquic soil (2013, background): “, 2009) and an agricultural soil in Germany (Jia and Conrad, 2009), but inconsistent with reports for most acidic soils (Gubry-Rangin et al., 2010; Yao et al., 2011; Zhang et al., 2011).”
Contrasting effects of nitrogen forms and soil pH on ammonia oxidizing microorganisms and their responses to long-term nitrogen fertilization in a typical steppe ecosystem (2017, background): “In addition to the evidence from isolated strains, autotrophic ammonia oxidation by archaea in soil was also identified by stable isotope probing of 13C (Zhang et al., 2010, 2012; Lu and Jia, 2013) or using a nitrification inhibitor (Offre et al., 2009).”
Meta-analysis reveals ammonia-oxidizing bacteria respond more strongly to nitrogen addition than ammonia-oxidizing archaea (2016, background): “…pH modifies overall microbial community composition and diversity (Lauber et al., 2009), and is known in individual studies to have strong effects on ammonia oxidizer communities specifically (e.g., AOA/AOB ratio and composition) (Nicol et al., 2008; Stempfhuber et al., 2015; Zhang et al., 2012).”
