Ammonia-oxidizing archaea are ubiquitous microorganisms which play important roles in global nitrogen and carbon cycle on earth. Here we present the high-quality draft genome sequence of an ammonia-oxidizing archaeon, "Candidatus Nitrosopumilus koreensis" MY1, that dominated an enrichment culture of a soil sample from the rhizosphere. Its genome contains genes for survival in the rhizosphere environment as well as those for carbon fixation and ammonium oxidation to nitrite.
氨氧化古菌是一种广泛存在的微生物,在地球的全球氮碳循环中发挥着重要作用。在这里,我们呈现了一株氨氧化古菌“Candidatus Nitrosopumilus koreensis”MY1 的高质量草图基因组序列,该菌在根际土壤样本的富集培养中占主导地位。其基因组包含了在根际环境中生存的基因,以及用于固碳和将氨氧化为亚硝酸盐的基因。
