A comparative study of benthic microbial communities at Cape Evans and New Harbour in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica where contrasting sea ice conditions drive high versus low...

Airborne microorganisms are transported from ground surfaces up to the free troposphere and are fall down to downwind areas, causing the impacts on biological ecosystems, human...

We used 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing to track the succession of bacterial communities in seawater after oil addition. The experiment was conducted in a controlled environment...

Evaluating metagenomic software is key for optimizing metagenome interpretation and focus of the initiative for the Critical Assessment of Metagenome Interpretation (CAMI). The...

Phages (viruses of bacteria and archaea) are a ubiquitous top-down control on microbial communities by selectively infecting and killing cells. As obligate parasites, phages are...

To investigate the denitrifier communities in soil and their responses to a short-term waterlogging, we performed pyrosequencing analyses for two denitrification genes, nirS and...

Complex interactions between microalgae and bacteria, such as mutualism, parasitism and competition, shape the structure and functioning of photosynthetic microbial mats. Using...

In this work, six common stainless steel grades are compared with respect to corrosion performance and tendency to biofouling in a brackish sea water in a pilot-scale cooling...

This study includes 16S rRNA-gene sequences (V3-V4 region) of bacterioplankton monthly sampled from the Blanes Bay Microbial Observatory (BBMO). It contains 11 years of samples...

Characterization of the thioautotrophic symbiont in the gills of different Lucinidae species.

A total of 94 soil samples were collected in the lowland rainforest of the La Selva Biological Station (Costa Rica) in October 2015. All samples were collected and prepared...

Climate change is an anthropic phenomenon that leads to changes in the atmosphere and causes an increase in average temperature and the probability of extreme weather events on...

Menez Gwen, Lucky Strike, and Rainbow are the three most visited and well-known deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields in the Azores region, located in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Their...

We report the effect of sulfur fertilization to the bacterial communities associated with rice roots and resided in the surface oxidized layer in planted rice microcosm.

The grazing activity by specific marine organisms represents a growing threat to the survival of many scleractinian species. For example, the recent proliferation of the...

Diazotrophs harbored in Acropora millepora early life stages

Here we present a comprehensive collection of 737 whole-genome sequenced bacterial isolates from humans to understand the blueprint of human gastrointestinal microbiota. This...

Bacteria are immensely diverse and drive many ecosystem processes. Bacterial biogeography as well as the coupling between bacterial community composition and functioning is...

The prime objective of this approach is to study the impacts of genetically modified crops in the rhizosphere environment, to explore uncultured bacteria. A bacterium is most...
