Metagenomic Evidence for the Presence of Comammox <italic toggle="yes">Nitrospira</italic>-Like Bacteria in a Drinking Water System

ABSTRACT We report metagenomic evidence for the presence of a Nitrospira-like organism with the metabolic potential to perform the complete oxidation of ammonia to nitrate (i.e., it is a complete ammonia oxidizer [comammox]) in a drinking water system. This metagenome bin was discovered through shot...
