TI  - Diversity of bacterial communities related to the nitrogen cycle in a coastal 
      tropical bay.

AB  - A culture-independent molecular phylogenetic analysis was carried out to study 
      for the first time the diversity of bacterial ammonia monooxygenase subunit A 
      (amoA) and nitrogenase reductase subunit H (nifH) genes from Urca inlet at 
      Guanabara Bay in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Most bacterial amoA and nifH sequences 
      exhibited identities of less than 95% to those in the GenBank database revealing 
      that novel ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and nitrogen-fixing microorganisms may 
      exist in this tropical marine environment. The observation of a large number of 
      clones related to uncultured bacteria also indicates the necessity to describe 
      these microorganisms and to develop new cultivation methodologies.
