Summary This study coupled a landscape‐scale metagenomic survey of denitrification gene abundance in soils with situ measurements to show how environmental factors shape distinct communities that exhibit varying activity. Across hydrologic gradient, the distribution total genes ( nap/nar + nirK/nirS cNor/qNor nosZ) inferred from read exhibited no consistent patterns. However, when were considered independently, nirS , cNor and nosZ was positively associated areas higher soil moisture, nitrate annual rates, whereas nirK qNor negatively these factors. These results suggest conditions, particular moisture nitrate, select for are characterized by differential encoding apparently functionally redundant proteins. In contrast, taxonomic analysis did not identify notable variability denitrifying community composition across sites. While capacity denitrify ubiquitous sites, energetic costs, such as appear confer selective advantage microbial experiencing more frequent saturation greater inputs. suggests metagenomics can help hotspots could be protected or enhanced treat non‐point source nitrogen pollution.

Abstract Global potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions from soil are accelerating, with increases in the proportion of reactive nitrogen emitted as N O, i.e., O emission factor (EF). Yet, primary controls and underlying mechanisms EFs remain unresolved. Based on two independent but complementary global syntheses, three field studies determining effects acidity denitrifying microorganisms, we show that pH predominantly by affecting denitrifier community composition. Analysis 5438 paired data points fluxes revealed a hump-shaped relationship between EFs, highest occurring moderately acidic soils favored O-producing over O-consuming induced high emissions. Our results illustrate has unimodal denitrifiers net depends both O/(N + ) ratio overall denitrification rate. These findings can inform strategies to predict mitigate under future input scenarios.

The strong greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) can be emitted from wastewater treatment systems as a byproduct of ammonium oxidation and the last intermediate in stepwise reduction nitrate to N2 by denitrifying organisms. A potential strategy reduce N2O emissions would enhance activity reductase (NOS) microbial community. survey existing literature on denitrification showed that reducing capacity (VmaxN2O→N2) exceeded produce (VmaxNO3→N2O) factor 2–10. This suggests an effective sink for N2O, potentially scavenging fraction produced or abiotic reactions. We conducted series incubation experiments with freshly sampled activated sludge system Oslo found ratio α = VmaxN2O→N2/VmaxNO3→N2O fluctuated between 2 5 samples taken at intervals over period weeks. Adding cocktail carbon substrates resulted increasing rates, but had no significant effect α. Based these results – complemented qPCR metaproteomic data we discuss whether overcapacity ascribed gene/protein abundance ratios (nosZ/nir), in-cell competition reductases electrons could greater importance.

Abstract Many biotic and abiotic processes contribute to nitrous oxide (N 2 O) production in the biosphere, but N O consumption environment has heretofore been attributed primarily canonical denitrifying microorganisms. The nosZ genes encoding reductase enzyme, NosZ, responsible for reduction dinitrogen are now known include two distinct groups: well‐studied Clade I which denitrifiers typically possess, novel II possessed by diverse groups of microorganisms, most non‐denitrifiers. reducers could play an important, previously unrecognized role controlling emissions several reasons, including: (1) produced other than denitrification, (2) hypothesized non‐respiratory functions NosZ as electron sink or detoxification, (3) possible differing enzyme kinetics compared (4) greater gene abundance soils many ecosystems.

When oxygen becomes limiting, denitrifying bacteria must prepare for anaerobic respiration by synthesizing the reductases NAR (NO3- → NO2-), NIR (NO2- NO), NOR (2NO N2O), and NOS (N2O N2), either en bloc or sequentially, to avoid entrapment in anoxia without energy. Minimizing metabolic burden of this precaution is a plausible fitness trait, we show that model denitrifier Paracoccus denitrificans achieves all cells, while only minority synthesize NIR. Phenotypic diversification with regards ascribed stochastic initiation gene transcription, which autocatalytic via NO production. Observed gas kinetics suggest such bet hedging widespread among bacteria. Moreover, response oxygenation, P. preserves poles nongrowing persister ready switch sudden anoxia.
