Summary

High ammonia concentrations demonstrated to be the driver for the abundance of AOA, with an inversely proportional correlation between them, and the presence of novel ecotypes of Thaumarchaeota, such as those related to the obligate acidophilic Nitrosotalea devanaterra at ammonia-rich places of circumneutral pH.
