The Nitrospirota are a phylum of bacteria. They include multiple genera such as Nitrospira , the largest.

Contents

History of knowledge

The first member of this phylum, Nitrospira marina , was discovered in 1985. [2] The second member, Nitrospira moscoviensis , was discovered in 1995. [3] [4] Nitrospira inopinata was discovered in 2015 [5] [6] and cultivated in 2017. [7]

Metabolism

Nitrospirota contains nitrifying taxa which oxidize nitrite to nitrate (nitrite-oxidizing bacteria, NOB [8] ) and commamox bacteria: Nitrospira inopinata . [5] [6] Dissulfurispira thermophila (Thermodesulfovibrionia) grows by disproportionation of thiosulfate or elemental sulfur. [9]
