We analyzed the community structure of marine ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) by sequencing the ammonia monooxygenase subunit A (amoA) gene. Cells were grown in ammonium-enriched seawater at various temperatures. Most amoA clones retrieved prior to cultivation belonged to Water Column Cluster B (WCB); however, most clones retrieved after incubation at high temperature belonged to Water Column Cluster A (WCA) or the Nitrosopumilus maritimus-like (NM) group. Some operational taxonomic units in the NM and WCA groups may be better adapted to higher temperature than those in WCB. Hence, differing temperature adaptations among AOA groups may be related to community structures and depth distributions.
