Abstract
Nitrobacterstrain NHB1 is a nitrite-oxidising bacterium previously co-enriched with the neutrophilic ammonia-oxidising bacteriumNitrosospiraAHB1, a consortium that nitrifies in acidic conditions in co-culture. Here we characterise the growth of the isolateNitrobacterstrain NHB1 as a function of pH and nitrite (NO2-) concentration, and its influence on the activity of acidophilic soil ammonia-oxidising archaea (AOA). NHB1 is acidotolerant and grows optimally at pH 6.0 (range 5.0 - 7.5) at initial
