The aim of the studies presented in this thesis was the search for niche differentiation between the ammonia-oxidizing bacteria in aquatic environments. Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria are chemolitho-autotrophic microorganisms responsible for the first, mostly rate-limiting step of the nitrification process, i.e. the conversion of ammonia into nitrite. The recent development of molecular techniques had overcome the difficulties inherent to the classic cultivation-based methods applied to these slow-growing bacteria. Finally, a large diversity of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria has been uncovered in several aquatic environments. However, only a few studies focused on niche differentiation between these bacteria within the same estuarine or freshwater ...
