Genome of a low-salinity ammonia-oxidizing archaeon determined by single-cell and metagenomic analysis.
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) are thought to be among the most abundant microorganisms on Earth and may significantly impact the global nitrogen and carbon cycles. We sequenced the genome of AOA in an enrichment culture from low-salinity sediments in San Francisco Bay using single-cell and metagen...
