Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to clarify the mechanism of formation of a microbial reaction system in soil microenvironment in which nitrification and denitrification proceed cooperatively, and analyze the community structure of nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria in the system. The following results were obtained. 1)To analyze a microbial community in soil microparticles (soil microenvironment), it is essential to develop a technology to prevent microbial contamination between particles. 2) The hot spot of nitrification and denitrification at which various and many nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria were found are limited to surface and organic matter layers of the soil used. 3) We successfully isolated an ammonia oxidizing bacterium which was identified as a new genus new species. 4) The results of genomic analysis of the isolate indicated that the nitrifying bacteria formed a microbial community in the soil microenvironment by producing extracellular macromolecular substances.
