Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea within biofilters of a commercial recirculating marine aquaculture system
Abstract While biofilters are widely used to metabolize ammonia and other wastes in marine recirculating aquaculture systems, the ammonia-oxidizing bacterial and archaeal communities have not been characterized across a diversity of production systems. Using a metagenomics approach, we characterized...
