Ammonia-oxidizing archaea have similar power requirements in diverse marine oxic sediments
Zhao, Rui; Mogollon, Jose M; Roerdink, Desiree Lisette; Thorseth, Ingunn Hindenes; Økland, Ingeborg Elisabet; Jørgensen, Steffen Leth (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Energy/power availability is regarded as one of the ultimate controlling factors of microbial abundance in the deep biosphere, where fewer cells are found in habitats of lower energy availability. A critical assumption ... -
"Candidatus Subterrananammoxibiaceae," a New Anammox Bacterial Family in Globally Distributed Marine and Terrestrial Subsurfaces
Zhao, Rui; Moine-Bauer, Sven Le; Babbin, Andrew R. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Bacteria specialized in anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) are widespread in many anoxic habitats and form an important functional guild in the global nitrogen cycle by consuming bio-available nitrogen for energy rather ... -
Genomes of Thaumarchaeota from deep sea sediments reveal specific adaptations of three independently evolved lineages
Kerou, Melina; Ponce-Toledo, Rafael I.; Zhao, Rui; Abby, Sophie S.; Hirai, Miho; Nomaki, Hidetaka; Takaki, Yoshihiro; Nunoura, Takuro; Jørgensen, Steffen Leth; Schleper, Christa (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Marine sediments represent a vast habitat for complex microbiomes. Among these, ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA) of the phylum Thaumarchaeota are one of the most common, yet little explored, inhabitants, which seem ... -
Mapping Microbial Abundance and Prevalence to Changing Oxygen Concentration in Deep-Sea Sediments Using Machine Learning and Differential Abundance
Møller, Tor Einar; Moine-Bauer, Sven Le; Hannisdal, Bjarte; Zhao, Rui; Baumberger, Tamara; Roerdink, Desiree Lisette; Dupuis, Amandine; Thorseth, Ingunn Hindenes; Pedersen, Rolf B.; Jørgensen, Steffen Leth (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Oxygen constitutes one of the strongest factors explaining microbial taxonomic variability in deep-sea sediments. However, deep-sea microbiome studies often lack the spatial resolution to study the oxygen gradient and ... -
Nitrite accumulation and anammox bacterial niche partitioning in Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge sediments
Zhao, Rui; Babbin, AR; Roerdink, Desiree Lisette; Thorseth, Ingunn Hindenes; Jørgensen, Steffen Leth (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)By consuming ammonium and nitrite, anammox bacteria form an important functional guild in nitrogen cycling in many environments, including marine sediments. However, their distribution and impact on the important substrate ...
