Identification of nosZ-expressing microorganisms consuming trace N₂O in microaerobic chemostat consortia dominated by an uncultured Burkholderiales

Microorganisms possessing N₂O reductases (NosZ) are the only known environmental sink of N₂O. While oxygen inhibition of NosZ activity is widely known, environments where N₂O reduction occurs are often not devoid of O₂. However, little is known regarding N₂O reduction in microoxic systems...
