The Origins of Cooperative Bacterial Communities [PDF]

open access: yesmBio, 2012
ABSTRACT Bacteria live in complex multispecies communities. Intimately interacting bacterial cells are ubiquitous on biological and mineral surfaces in all habitats. Molecular and cellular biologists have unraveled some key mechanisms that modulate bacterial interactions, but the ecology and evolution of these associations remain poorly ...

From Insect Communication to Bacterial Communication [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Ecology, 2014
One of the driving forces in the early stages of the ISCE and the Journal of Chemical Ecologywas the aim to unravel the chemistry and biology of insect communication. Since then, a remarkable number of insect pheromones have been identified, probably for about 1,000 species, and the mysteries of their formation and perception elucidated, in some cases ...

Stability of multispecies bacterial communities: Signaling networks may stabilize microbiomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Multispecies bacterial communities can be remarkably stable and resilient even though they consist of cells and species that compete for environmental resources.

PCR biases distort bacterial and archaeal community structure in pyrosequencing datasets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
As 16S rRNA gene targeted massively parallel sequencing has become a common tool for microbial diversity investigations, numerous advances have been made to minimize the influence of sequencing and chimeric PCR artifacts through rigorous quality control ...

Community-acquired bacterial meningitis [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2016
Meningitis is an inflammation of the meninges and subarachnoid space that can also involve the brain cortex and parenchyma. It can be acquired spontaneously in the community - community-acquired bacterial meningitis - or in the hospital as a complication of invasive procedures or head trauma (nosocomial bacterial meningitis).

The dependent correlation between soil multifunctionality and bacterial community across different farmland soils

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionMicroorganisms play a critical role in soil biogeochemical cycles, but it is still debated whether they influence soil biogeochemical processes through community composition and diversity or not.

New Vocabulary for Bacterial Communication

open access: yesChemBioChem, 2019
AbstractQuorum sensing (QS) is widely accepted as a procedure that bacteria use to converse. However, prevailing thinking places acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) at the forefront of this communication pathway in Gram‐negative bacteria. With the advent of high‐throughput genomics and the subsequent influx of bacterial genomes, bioinformatics analysis has

Gut bacterial consortium enriched in a biofloc system protects shrimp against Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2023
Background Shrimp cultured in a biofloc system (BFS) have a lower disease incidence than those farmed in a water exchange system (WES). Although a number of studies have reported that the gut bacterial community induced by BFS is highly associated with ...

The root endophytic bacterial community of Ricinus communis L. resembles the seeds community more than the rhizosphere bacteria independent of soil water content

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Rhizosphere and root endophytic bacteria are crucial for plant development, but the question remains if their composition is similar and how environmental conditions, such as water content, affect their resemblance.

Resistance and resilience responses of a range of soil eukaryote and bacterial taxa to fungicide application [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The application of plant protection products has the potential to significantly affect soil microbial community structure and function. However, the extent to which soil microbial communities from different trophic levels exhibit resistance and ...
