Taxonomic and functional profiling of nitrifying biofilms in freshwater, brackish and marine RAS biofilters
Abstract
In recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), the crucial step of eliminating toxic N compounds like ammonia and nitrite is mediated via nitrifying microorganisms and takes place in biofilters. In this study, analyses of microorganisms colonizing biocarriers of nine moving-bed biofilters of three different RAS operated with freshwater, brackish or marine process water uncovered site specific communities. Illumina-based amplicon sequencing of the...
