Analyzing microbial communities and metabolic functions in estuaries affected by human activity to uncover bioelectrochemical system potential

Environmental Advances
In the context of bioelectrochemical systems (BES), a profound understanding of the taxonomic composition within indigenous microbial communities is crucial.

Vegetation transitions drive the autotrophy–heterotrophy balance in Arctic lakes

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, 2018
“Arctic greening” will alter vegetation quantity and quality in northern watersheds, with possible consequences for lake metabolic balance. We used paleolimnology from six Arctic lakes in Greenland, Norway, and Alaska to develop a conceptual model ...

Carbon fixation by basalt-hosted microbial communities

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Oceanic crust is a massive potential habitat for microbial life on Earth, yet our understanding of this ecosystem is limited due to difficulty in access. In particular, measurements of rates of microbial activity are sparse. We used stable carbon isotope

Design and implementation of aerobic and ambient CO2-reduction as an entry-point for enhanced carbon fixation

Nature Communications
The direct reduction of CO2 into one-carbon molecules is key to highly efficient biological CO2-fixation. However, this strategy is currently restricted to anaerobic organisms and low redox potentials.

Productivity-Diversity Relationships from Chemolithoautotrophically Based Sulfidic Karst Systems [PDF]

International Journal of Speleology, 2009
Although ecosystems thriving in the absence of photosynthetic processes are no longer considered unique phenomena, we haveyet to understand how these ecosystems are energetically sustained via chemosynthesis.

Microbial autotrophy driven by extracellular electrons generated from mechanical forces via flexoelectricity

Nature Communications
Mechanical force has recently emerged as a microbial energy source through direct mechanical-to-electrical energy conversion. However, the flexoelectric effect, a universal mechanoelectrical coupling phenomenon, remains underexplored as an energy source ...

Growth of candidate phyla radiation bacteria in groundwater incubations reveals widespread adaptations to oxic conditions

Microbiome
Background The candidate phyla radiation (CPR) comprises a widespread but poorly understood group of bacteria with limited cultured representatives, largely due to their metabolic dependencies on microbial hosts.
