Study on amplicon sequencing of amoA gene in complete ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (Commamox)
The complete ammonia oxidation pathway of Comammox consists of ammonia monooxygenase, hydroxylamine dehydrogenase and nitrite oxidoreductase. The diversity of amoA genes in Comammox bacteria is higher, indicating that the Comammox process can beIt has an advantage in competition with other ammonia-oxidizing bacteria. It was found that nitrogen fertilizer could promote the growth of nitrospira A branch of Commamox.
