Introduction
Themostcommonmethodformeasuringnitrificationratesintheoceanistoincubatewithseawaterwith15Nlabeledammoniumfor24‐48hoursandthentomeasurethe15Ninthenitriteandnitrateproduced.Thismethodreliesontheabilitytoaddtracerlevelsofammoniumtonotdrasticallychangethechemicalenvironmentofthenitrifyingcommunity.Inmanyareasoftheoceanthisisimpossible.Ammonium,themostdesirednitrogencompoundintheocean,existsinverylowabundanceinmostofthewatercolumn.Manyoceanographerscontinuewiththeseratemeasurementsbyaddingthesmallamountsofammonium,althoughnottracelevelsandinevitablytheyarestimulatingthegrowthofanewandunnaturalnitrifyingcommunity.
Differentspeciesofnitrifiers,especiallybetweenbacterialandarchaeal,haveawiderangeofaffinitiestowardsammonium.Likely,byaddingammoniumtothesystemwearestimulatingthegrowthofcertainspeciesoverothers(Habbenaetal2009).Historicallyithasbeenmucheasiertoisolateammoniaoxidizingbacteria(AOB)becausetheyoutgrowammoniaoxidizingarchaea(AOA)inhighlevelsofammoniumandhaveafastergrowthrate.AlthoughAOAareinhigherabundanceinoligotrophicseawaterbecausethehaveahigheraffinityforammonium(Habbenaetaal,2009).

Labeledammoniumwasaddedtobottlesimmediatelyaftersampling,within1hourofreturningtolaboratory.Thensubsamplesweretakenfromeachbottleinitiallyandat12,24and48hoursaftertheammoniumaddition.Eachsubsampleconsistedoffiltering200mLsplitontotwodifferent0.2µmisoporemembranefiltersandfrozenat‐80˚C.50mLofthefiltratewasalsocollectedformeasuringtheisotopesofnitriteandnitrate.Also15mLofseawaterfixedand3and10mLofwaterwerefilteredonto0.2µmisoporemembranefiltersforcellcounts.Alsobeforetheadditionoflabeledammoniumsampleswastakenformeasuringtheinitialnutrientconcentrations(ammonium,nitrite,andnitrate)oftheseawater.Thebottleswereincubatedinthelaboratory,withatempof22˚C,inthedarkforthe48hours.
DNAandRNAExtraction
Filterswereaddedto15mLfalcontubeswith6mLofextractionbuffer.Extractionbufferwasmadewith0.6mLofastockbuffer(250mMEDTAand100mMTrisHCl),30µLof20%SDS,60µL5MNaClandPCRgradewater.Beadswereaddedandthetubeswerebeadbeatedfor5minutesandthenplaceina60˚Cwaterbath.Afterbeingheatto60˚Ctubesweredroppedinliquidnitrogen.Theywereheatedandfrozen3times.ThelysisbufferwasnowwashedwithPCI(phenolchloroforminisoamylalcohol)andcentrifugedfor10minutesat5000rpm.ThePCIwaspouredoffandthelysisbufferwasaddedtoanewconicaltube.SamplesthatstilllookedcloudyafterfirstwashingwerewashedasecondtimewithPCI.NextthelysisbufferwasaddedtoanAmpliconultra‐4centrifugaldevicetocollecttheDNAonthefilter.TheAmplicontubeswerecentrifugedat3000rpmfor7minutes.Bufferhadtobeaddedmultipletimesbecausenotallthematerialcouldfitintothefiltertube.Oncethebufferwasfilteredthefilterswerewashed3timeswith1XTEcentrifugingbetweeneachwashing.ThevolumeofDNAleftinthetopofthefilterwasmeasuredasitwastransferredintoPCRtubesandputinthefreezer.
TheDNAwasthenrunonageltovisualizethatextractionwassuccessful.TheDNAwasalsothenquantifiedusingPicoGreenandafluorometer.1µLofDNAwasaddedwith198.5µLof1xTEand0.5µLPicoGreen.
QuantitativePCR(qPCR)
DNAsamplesweredilutedtenfoldpriortoPCRreaction.PCRreactionwassetupusingamastermixwhichincludedPicomaxxenzyme,Picomaxxextractionbuffer,SYBRgreen,dNTPs(aconcentrationofdivalentions),magnesiumchloride,DNAandprimers.qPCRwasdoneusing3differentprimers:1)amoAinarchaea,clusterA(Francisetal,2005;BemanandFrancis,2008)2)amoAinbacteria(Rotthauweetal,1997)and3)amoAinarchaea,clusterB(Francisetal,2005;BemanandFrancis,2006).StandardsforeachPCRproductwereobtainedfromCorneliaWuchteratWoodsHoleOceanographicInstitution(WHOI).Theywereplacedinathermocyclerusingatemperatureprogramof95˚Cforinitialmelting,58˚Cforprimerannhiling,72˚Cforprimerextensionand80˚Cforfluorescencemeasurement.Also,inhibitiontestswerecarriedoutwithE.coliandfoundthatthe1/10dilutionofourDNAextractdidnotcauseanyinhibition.
DenaturingGradientGelElectrophoresis(DGGE)andSequencing
DGGEwasperformedintheCoolenlaboratoryatWHOIonaIngenyPhorUsystem.Firsttheacrylimidegelwasmadewithagradientfrom20to70%ureumanddeionizedformamidesolutions.Thegelneeds3to4hourstosetupbeforerunning.TheDGGEchamberisfilledwith1xTAEbufferatpH8.Thegelisloadedwitha5µLofloadingdyeand5µLofthePCRproduct.ThePCRisdonewithaspecialreverseprimerwithaGCclamp.Thegelisrunat60˚Cand200Vforatleast5hours,butupto12hours.
Attheendoftherun,thegelisremovedandstainedfor20minutesusingSYBRgold(2µLin8mL1xTAE).Thenitisdestainedinwaterfor30minutes.Thebandsareviewedandphotographedonadarkreader.

TheseresultsaresimilartowhatIhadexpected.IthasbeenknownthatAOBflourishinareaswithhigherammoniumconcentrationslikesoils,coastalwatersandestuaries(Wardetal,1984;Starketal,1996;Santoroetal,2008)soitmakessensethatinthehighestammoniumconcentrationstherewasadominanceofAOB.Iwassurprisedthatby12hourstheywereabletodetecttheammoniumandgrowfastenoughtooutnumberAOA.IhadalsoexpectedthestartingcommunitywouldhavealargerpercentageofAOAbecausenowmultipletimestheyhavebeenshowntobethedominantammoniaoxidizerintheocean(Francisetal,2005;Wuchteretal,2006;MosierandFrancis,2008).Itwasinterestingthatinthe0.1µMammoniumadditiontherewaslittlechangeinthecommunityover48hours.Thiscouldbeforacoupleofreasons.Firstthatamountofammoniumcanonlystimulateasmallamountofgrowthwhichislikelynotdetectableinthattimeperiod.Also,sincemy
