Is it possible to find trends between the parameters that define microbial growth to help us explain the vast microbial diversity? Through an extensive database of kinetic parameters of nitrifiers, we analyzed if the dominance of specific populations of nitrifiers could be predicted and explained. We concluded that, in general, higher growth yield (YXS) and ammonia affinity (a0 NH3) and lower growth rate (µmax) are observed for ammonia‐oxidizing archaea (AOA) than bacteria (AOB), which would explain their considered dominance in oligotrophic environments. However, comammox (CMX), with the maximum energy harvest per mole of ammonia, and some AOB, have higher a0 NH3 and lower µmax than some AOA. Although we were able to correlate the presence of specific terminal oxidases with observed oxygen affinities (a0 O2) for nitrite‐oxidizing bacteria (NOB), that correlation was not observed for AOB. Moreover, the presumed dominance of AOB over NOB in O2‐limiting environments is discussed. Additionally, lower statistical variance of a0 O2 values than for ammonia and nitrite affinities was observed, suggesting nitrogen limitation as a stronger selective pressure. Overall, specific growth strategies within nitrifying groups were not identified through the reported kinetic parameters, which might suggest that mostly, fundamental differences in biochemistry are responsible for underlying kinetic parameters. An extensive analysis of kinetic parameter that define microbial growth was developed to understand better the relationships of competition and collaboration of the main contributors of aerobic nitrification. From this analysis, Martinez‐Rabert and co‐workers show that specific metabolic strategies enabling the survival of different populations and also a relationship between biochemical differences and measured growth kinetic parameters. Moreover, it explains our inability to fully describe ecological niche differentiation between different populations involved in the aerobic biogeochemical nitrogen cycle.
