Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...

mBio, 2022 Chemolithoautotrophic manganese oxidation has long been theorized but only recently demonstrated in a bacterial coculture. The majority member of the coculture, “Candidatus Manganitrophus noduliformans,” is a distinct but not yet isolated lineage in the ...

Bioengineering, 2022 Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are eco-friendly plastics that are thermoplastic and biodegradable in nature. The hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium Ralstonia eutropha can biosynthesize poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate] [P(3HB)], the most common PHA, from carbon ...

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Compound‐specific stable isotope analysis of individual amino acids (CSIA‐AA) has emerged as a transformative approach to estimate consumer trophic positions (TPCSIA) that are internally indexed to primary producer nitrogen isotope baselines.

Dynamics of autotroph–mixotroph interactions with the intraguild predation structure
Journal of Biological Dynamics, 2022 A mathematical model with the intraguild predation structure is proposed to describe the interactions of autotrophs and mixotrophs containing light and nutrients in a well-mixed aquatic ecosystem. The dissipation, existence and stability of equilibria of

Isobutanol Production by Autotrophic Acetogenic Bacteria [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 Two different isobutanol synthesis pathways were cloned into and expressed in the two model acetogenic bacteria Acetobacterium woodii and Clostridium ljungdahlii. A. woodii is specialized on using CO2 + H2 gas mixtures for growth and depends on sodium ions for ATP generation by a respective ATPase and Rnf system. On the other hand, C. ljungdahlii grows

Investigation of the microbial diversity of an extremely acidic, metal-rich water body (Lake Robule, Bor, Serbia) [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2014 An investigation of the microbial diversity of the extremely acidic, metal-rich Lake Robule was carried out using culture-dependant and culture-independent (T-RFLP) methods, and the ability of indigenous bacteria from the lake water to leach ...

Iron Corrosion via Direct Metal-Microbe Electron Transfer
mBio, 2019 The concept that anaerobic microorganisms can directly accept electrons from Fe(0) has been controversial because direct metal-microbe electron transfer has previously only been indirectly inferred.
