Abstract

We report 12 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGS) of a bioreactor community of acid-tolerant nitrifying bacteria. The MAGS include autotrophs in the Nitrospira genus and heterotrophs in the Xanthomonadales, Ktedonobacterales, Cytophagales, Burkholderiales, and Hyphomicrobiales. These taxonomic and genomic data provide insights into the core community members required for nitrification at low pH.
