Urban wastewater bacterial communities assemble into seasonal steady states [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2021
Abstract Background Microorganisms in urban sanitary sewers exhibit community properties that suggest sewers are a novel ecosystem. Sewer microorganisms present both an opportunity as a control point for wastewater treatment and a risk to human health.

Bacterial community assembly of specific pathogen-free neonatal mice. [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiome
Abstract Background Neonatal mice are frequently used to model diseases that affect human infants. Microbial community composition has been shown to impact disease progression in these models. Despite this, the maturation of the early-life murine microbiome has not been well-characterized.

Bacterial predation transforms the landscape and community assembly of biofilms

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
The bacterium Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus attaches to the exterior of a Gram-negative prey cell, enters the periplasm, and harvests resources to replicate before lysing the host to find new prey.1-7 Predatory bacteria such as this are common in many natural environments,8-13 as are groups of matrix-bound prey cell clusters, termed biofilms.14-16 Despite

Bacterial communities exhibit apparent phosphate concentration-related patterns of community composition, alpha diversity, and phylogenetic structure in the subtropical Daya Bay

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Increasing anthropogenic activities have caused serious environmental problems and undesirable ecological impacts on bay ecosystems. However, much remains to be learned regarding marine bacterial community assembly and its underlying mechanisms under ...

Homogeneous selection is not always important in bacterial community in the eutrophic enclosed bay

open access: yesEcological Processes, 2022
Background Previous studies have found that coastal eutrophication increases the influence of homogeneous selection on bacterial community assembly. However, whether seasonal changes affect the dominance of homogenous selection in bacterial community ...

The divergent vertical pattern and assembly of soil bacterial and fungal communities in response to short-term warming in an alpine peatland

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Soil microbial communities are crucial in ecosystem-level decomposition and nutrient cycling processes and are sensitive to climate change in peatlands.

The Assembly Process of Free-Living and Particle-Attached Bacterial Communities in Shrimp-Rearing Waters: The Overwhelming Influence of Nutrient Factors Relative to Microalgal Inoculation

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
The ecological functions of bacterial communities vary between particle-attached (PA) lifestyles and free-living (FL) lifestyles, and separately exploring their community assembly helps to elucidate the microecological mechanisms of shrimp rearing ...

Contrasting ecological processes shape the Eucalyptus phyllosphere bacterial and fungal community assemblies

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, 2022
Introduction Phyllosphere microbiome is intrinsically linked to plant performance and ecosystem functioning. However, our knowledge about the role of ecological processes in shaping the biogeography of different phyllosphere microbial communities is ...

Environmental Filtering by pH and Salinity Jointly Drives Prokaryotic Community Assembly in Coastal Wetland Sediments

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Understanding the microbial community assembly is an essential topic in microbial ecology. Coastal wetlands are an important blue carbon sink, where microbes play a key role in biogeochemical cycling of nutrients and energy transformation.

Neutral community model explains the bacterial community assembly in freshwater lakes [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2015
Over the past decade, neutral theory has gained attention and recognition for its capacity to explain bacterial community structure (BCS) in addition to deterministic processes. However, no clear consensus has been drawn so far on their relative importance.
