Abstract:Nitrification is mediated by numerous different microorganisms, but knowledge of their ecophysiologies is insufficient. Leachate in the late stages of landfill operation provides a brackish environment with a high ammonia concentration, and methanol is added as an electron donor for denitrification. Such a unique environment may contain novel nitrifiers. Here, we present metagenomic analysis of the microbiome from a closed landfill leachate treatment facility to investigate the identity and functions of nitrif… Show more
