Nitrifiers autochthonous to drinking water distribution systems (DWDS) were enriched in separate ammonia-oxidizing Archaea (AOA), ammonia-oxidizing Bacteria (AOB) and nitrite-oxidizing Bacteria (NOB) enrichment cultures. A strategy was developed to selectively enrich AOA from DWDS biofilms containin...
