ABSTRACT
A thermophilic Bacillus sp. of marine origin was observed to grow anaerobically on nitrite, nitrous oxide (N2O) in the presence of nitrite, and N2O alone for a few hours after exhaustion of nitrite. This represents the second example of a denitrification phenotype originally observed to occur with Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
