Complete genome sequence of Azospira sp. strain I13 harboring two distinct nitrous oxide reductase ( nosZ ) genes

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: ABSTRACT We report on the complete genome sequence of Azospira sp. strain I13, a class of Betaproteobacteria . We identified two distinct nitrous oxide (N 2 O) reductase ( nosZ ) genes in the retrieved genome. Elucidating the genetic repertoire may clarify the high N 2 O-reduction activity and guide novel mitigation technologies.
