The nitrogen cycle is most complex and very important for the life on earth. Nitrifying bacteria which carried out nitrogen cycling process play a vital role in water quality control, thus creating a genomic fingerprint database for surveillance and monitoring of genetic variability of nitrifying bacteria is very important and also to establish a Biosecurity protocol for the Bheries located in different areas of West Bengal. The currently evolutionary relationships and the natural diversity of Ammonia Oxidizing Bacteria (AOB) and Nitrite Oxidizing Bacteria (NOB) is mainly based on comparative sequence analyses of their genes encoding the 16S rRNA and the active site polypeptide of the ammonia monooxygenase (AmoA) and Nitrite oxidoreductase (NxrA) in the East Kolkata Wetland. This study extended significantly the 16S rRNA and amoA databases for AOB, nxrA databases for NOB. Therefore, e.. View More»
