Canopy and Understory Nitrogen Addition Alters Organic Soil Bacterial Communities but Not Fungal Communities in a Temperate Forest

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition is known to alter soil microbial communities, but how canopy and understory N addition affects soil bacterial and fungal communities in different soil layers remains poorly understood.

Social Behavior in Bacterial Nanonetworks: Challenges and Opportunities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Molecular communication promises to enable communication between nanomachines with a view to increasing their functionalities and open up new possible applications. Due to some of the biological properties, bacteria have been proposed as a possible information carrier for molecular communication, and the corresponding communication networks are known ...

Distinct biogeographical patterns in snail gastrointestinal tract bacterial communities compared with sediment and water

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen
The factors that influence the distribution of bacterial community composition are not well understood. The role of geographical patterns, which suggest limited dispersal, is still a topic of debate.

Bacterial communities of two ubiquitous Great Barrier Reef corals reveals both site- and species-specificity of common bacterial associates. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Coral-associated bacteria are increasingly considered to be important in coral health, and altered bacterial community structures have been linked to both coral disease and bleaching.

Hydrological connectivity promotes coalescence of bacterial communities in a floodplain

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Floodplains play essential roles in the ecological functions of regional environments. The merging and coalescence of bacterial communities in aquatic environments results in periodic patterns driven by regular hydrological activities, which may, in turn,
