Background: The interplay between hosts and their associated microbiome is now recognized as a fundamental basis of the ecology, evolution and development of both players. These...

We examined the microbial ecology of shallow reefs within the Federated States of Micronesia. We surveyed 20 reefs surrounding seven islands and atolls (Yap, Woleai, Olimarao,...

In this study, sequencing biases in bacterial genome sequencing introduced by currently available library preparation kits for Illumina sequencer were compared. Furthermore, we...

This study explore the Pacific oyster (C. gigas) microbiota and pathobiota during mortality episodes in Europe by applying 16S rRNA gene-based microbial profiling and a new...

Phytoplankton (16S, 18S), Bacterial, Archaeal dynamics at SPOT at daily resolution

These are samples taken along the Chesapeake Bay mainstem in the summer of 2019. Samples were collected at the surface and bottom and in one case a third oxycline depth at each...

These 16S rRNA gene sequences and shotgun metagenomic sequences were generated from fecal DNA from the Galapagos penguin. This study uses a metagenomic approach to characterize...

Seawater was collected on board the NOAA ship Ronald H. Brown as part of the fourth Gulf of Mexico Ecosystems and Carbon Cycle (GOMECC-4) cruise from September 13 to October 21,...

Fish are the most diverse and widely distributed vertebrates, yet little is known about the microbial ecology of fishes nor the biological and environmental factors that...

The factors shaping the composition and dynamics of microbiomes associated to aquatic organisms, especially regarding skin microbiomes have been understudied despite the...

Challenges of comparing marine microbiome community composition

from a manuscript in prep: "Viruses are thought to influence microbial community structure by density-dependent, host-specific infection, which can be strain-specific....

This study had the aims of (i) identifying the single-celled protist assemblages in the superficial sediments of Italian Mediterranean regional seas, (ii) relating their...

Overall, this study aims to achieve absolute quantification for live microbial cells in beach water. To achieve this, propidium monoazide (PMA) dye was used at the sample...

Marine diazotrophs play a key role in determining ecosystem productivity by alleviating nitrogen limitation. However, we know little about the identity and activity of...

Rain events increase Tijuana river flow to levels that the international water treatment plant in the Mexico-US border can not process. Therefore, rain runoff and sewage...

While the utility of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding surveys for biodiversity monitoring continues to be demonstrated, the spatial and temporal variability of eDNA, and...

These samples are from a time series experiment comparing different intervention treatments effectiveness at treating stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD). SCTLD-affected...

Corals are important model organisms for understanding invertebrate host-microbe interactions however, the lack of controlled experimental approaches for manipulating...

Six DNA extraction methods were tested in pure cultures of different nano and picoplankton species. The same extractions were checked in non-axenic mock communities formed...
