Carbon substrate selects for different lineages of N2O reducing communities in soils under anoxic conditions

Complete genome sequence of Afipia carboxidovorans strain SH125, a non-denitrifying nitrous oxide-reducing bacterium isolated from anammox biomass

“…More descriptions regarding the phylogeny, functions, and physiologies of N 2 O-reducing bacteria toward mitigating N 2 O emissions are required ( 4 , 5 ). Afipia carboxidovorans strain SH125, detected as a candidate for N 2 O sink in soils ( 6 ) and engineered systems ( 7 , 8 ), was obtained from anammox biomass enriched by exogenous N 2 O supply ( 9 ). The biomass was serially diluted with 20× diluted phosphate-buffered saline and spread onto 1.0 wt% gellan gum plates containing the anammox medium ( 10 ).…”
