Sediment samples were collected from Yangcheng Lake,a middle size shallow lake in Yangtze River Delta. Molecular biology methods were adopted to detect the anaerobic ammonia oxidation(anammox) and aerobic ammonia oxidation bacteria in the samples. Three pairs of nest PCR primers were designed to amplify the 16S rRNA from the sediment samples. The specified sequences of anammox were amplified by the primer pairs AMX368f-AMX820r,and analyses of phylogenetics showed that these sequences were similar to Candidatus brocadia fulgida,Candidatus brocadia anammoxidans and Candidatus scalindua. The sequences amplified by the amoA gene specified primer from the sediment samples belonged to the Betaproteobacteria class. This study provided the molecular evidence for coexistence of anammox and aerobic-ammonia-oxidation in Yangcheng Lake.
