Abstract

Summary: A total of 13 species of lithotrophic ammonia-oxidizing bacteria assigned to the genus Nitrosomonas were characterized. DNA homologies, G + C content of the DNA, shape and ultrastructure of the cells, salt requirements, ammonia tolerance, utilization of urea as ammonia source, and whole-cell protein patterns were analysed. In addition to the described species Nitrosomonas europaea and ?Nitrosomonas cryotolerans? eight new species are established. The names Nitrosomonas communis sp. nov., Nitrosomonas ureae sp. nov., Nitrosomonas aestuarii sp. nov., Nitrosomonas marina sp. nov., Nitrosomonas nitrosa sp. nov., Nitrosomonas eutropha sp. nov., Nitrosomonas oligotropha sp. nov. and Nitrosomonas halophila sp. nov. are proposed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
