Differential responses of canonical nitrifiers and comammox Nitrospira to long-term fertilization in an Alfisol of Northeast China

The newly identified complete ammonia oxidizer (comammox) that converts ammonia directly into nitrate has redefined the long-held paradigm of two-step nitrification mediated by two distinct groups of nitrifiers. However, exploration of the niche differentiation of canonical nitrifiers and comammox N...
