Optimization of DNA extraction from human urinary samples for mycobiome community profiling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
IntroductionRecent data suggest the urinary tract hosts a microbial community of varying composition, even in the absence of infection. Culture-independent methodologies, such as next-generation sequencing of conserved ribosomal DNA sequences, provide an

Gut Bacterial Differences Between Pollen-Carrying Bee Larvae and Vespine Wasp Larvae, with an Emphasis on Specific Gut Bacteria of Vespine Wasps

open access: yesMicrobiology Research
While the gut microbiota of pollen-carrying bees (e.g., honeybees and bumblebees) has been well studied, the gut microbiota of vespine wasps remains poorly understood.

Amniotic fluid from healthy term pregnancies does not harbor a detectable microbial community [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Recent studies have conflicting data regarding the presence of intra-amniotic microbiota. Viral communities are increasingly recognized as important although overlooked components of the human microbiota.

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 ...

Bacterial Communities: Interactions to Scale [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
In the environment, bacteria live in complex multispecies communities. These communities span in scale from small, multicellular aggregates to billions or trillions of cells within the gastrointestinal tract of animals. The dynamics of bacterial communities are determined by pairwise interactions that occur between different species in the community ...

Seasonal Microbial Community Characteristic and Its Driving Factors in a Copper Tailings Dam in the Chinese Loess Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
A combined soil bacterial and fungal community survey was conducted for a copper tailings dam in the Chinese Loess Plateau. We investigated the seasonal differences in the composition and function of soil microbial community to examine the key ...

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

Assembly processes of rhizosphere and phyllosphere bacterial communities in constructed wetlands created via transformation of rice paddies

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Constructed wetlands are an efficient and cost-effective method of restoring degraded wetlands, in which the microorganisms present make a significant contribution to the ecosystem. In this study, we comprehensively investigated the patterns of diversity
