In order to understand at the tissue level how Aedes aegypti copes with toxic ammonia concentrations that result from the rapid metabolism of blood meal proteins, we investigated the incorporation of (15)N from (15)NH(4)Cl into amino acids using an in

A method was developed to determine the contributions of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) to the nitrification potentials (NPs) of soils taken from forest, pasture, cropped, and fallowed (19 years) lands. Soil slurries were exposed to acetylene to

Tetraheme cytochrome c-554 is a physiological electron acceptor of hydroxylamine oxidoreductase (HAO), a core enzyme of ammonia oxidation in chemoautotrophic nitrifiers. Here we report the purification of cytochrome c-554 from Nitrosococcus oceani strain NS58, a marine gammaproteobacterial ammonia-oxidizing bacterium. The

In laboratory experiments, conspecific excretions and ammonia solutions evoked avoidance reactions in tadpoles of three anuran species, Bufo bufo, Rana temporaria, and Rana arvalis. A differential sensitivity of ammonia chemoreception was determined for two anuran species. For Bufo bufo tadpoles
