摘要: The discovery of comammox Nitrospira has altered our perception of the nitrogen biogeochemical cycle. However, their functional importance compared to canonical ammonia oxidisers (i.e., ammonia -oxidising bacteria (AOB) and archaea (AOA)) in agricultural soils remains elusive, especially in acidic soils. Here, we assessed the functional importance of these functional guilds in nitrification and nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions in three acidic agricultural soils by using a range of nitrification inhibitors (acetylene, 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) and different concentrations of 1-octyne) and monitored their community assemblage and population dynamics. The sensitivity of comammox Nitrospira clade A to 1-octyne varied across soils, highlighting that the inappropriate use of 1-octyne can lead to misestimation of comammox activity. AOA were key NH 3 oxidisers in the three soils, while AOB also contributed significantly to nitrification in one soil. In contrast, comammox Nitrospira always played a minor role in ammonia oxidation and N 2 O emissions, likely due to their low abundances, restricted cellular kinetic properties and N 2 O production mechanisms. Together, this study demonstrates that comammox Nitrospira play a less important role in ammonia oxidation and N 2 O production in acidic agricultural soils than AOA and AOB, thereby providing important novel insights into the mitigation of nitrogen fertiliser loss and N 2 O emissions.
