DNA- and RNA-SIP Reveal <italic toggle="yes">Nitrospira</italic> spp. as Key Drivers of Nitrification in Groundwater-Fed Biofilters

ABSTRACT Nitrification, the oxidative process converting ammonia to nitrite and nitrate, is driven by microbes and plays a central role in the global nitrogen cycle. Our earlier investigations based on 16S rRNA and amoA amplicon analysis, amoA quantitative PCR and metagenomics of groundwater-fed bio...
