TL;DR: This study revealed the existence, abundance and distribution of comammox Nitrospira and the driving environmental factors in estuarine ecosystems, thus providing insights into the ecological niches of this recently discovered nitrifying consortium and their contributions to nitrification in globalEstuarine environments.

TL;DR: This work examined the N2O and NOy production patterns by comammox bacterium Nitrospira inopinata during aerobic ammonia oxidation, in comparison to its canonical ammonia-converting counterparts, representatives of the ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and ammonia-Oxidizing bacteria (AOB).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the biotransformation mechanisms of lincomycin (LIN) and three fluoroquinolone antibiotics (FQs), ciprofloxacin (CFX), norfloxacsin (NFX), and ofloxacins (OFX), which regularly enter aquatic environments through human activities, by different ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms (AOM).

TL;DR: This work surveyed the diversity, abundance, and community structure of comammox Nitrospira along the Yangtze Estuary, alongside the niche separation of different subgroups to shed light on the ecophysiology ofcomammox in global estuary ecosystems.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the community structure of different types of nitrifiers in response to salinity change, including ammonium oxidizers (comammox), AOA, Nitrosomonas-AOB, ammonium-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), comammox and nitrite-oxideidizing Nitrospira.
