Bacterial community composition of vermicompost-treated tomato rhizospheres.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Vermicompost application has been shown to promote plant growth, alter the rhizosphere microbiome, and suppress plant pathogens. These beneficial properties are often attributed to the activity of vermicompost-associated microorganisms.

The effects of clays on bacterial community composition during arthropod decay. [PDF]
Swiss J PalaeontolAbstract Fossilization, or the transition of an organism from the biosphere to the geosphere, is a complex mechanism involving numerous biological and geological variables. Bacteria are one of the most significant biotic players to decompose organic matter in natural environments, early on during fossilization ...

Geographic Location Affects the Bacterial Community Composition and Diversity More than Species Identity for Tropical Tree Species [PDF]
PlantsMicroorganisms associated with plants play a crucial role in their growth, development, and overall health. However, much remains unclear regarding the relative significance of tree species identity and spatial variation in shaping the distribution of ...

Community composition drives siderophore dynamics in multispecies bacterial communities
BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Abstract Background Intraspecific public goods are commonly shared within microbial populations, where the benefits of public goods are largely limited to closely related conspecifics. One example is the production of iron-scavenging siderophores that deliver iron to cells via specific cell envelope receptor and ...

Fungal Communities Are Important Determinants of Bacterial Community Composition in Deadwood
mSystems, 2021 Understanding the interactive dynamics between fungal and bacterial communities is important to gain predictive knowledge on ecosystem functioning. However, little is known about the mechanisms behind fungal-bacterial associations and the directionality of species interactions.

Dynamics of Bacterial Community Composition in the Malaria Mosquito's Epithelia [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 The Anopheles midgut hosts diverse bacterial communities and represents a complex ecosystem. Several evidences indicate that mosquito midgut microbiota interferes with malaria parasite transmission. However, the bacterial composition of salivary glands and ovaries, two other biologically important tissues, has not been described so far.

Bacterial Community Composition in Lake Tanganyika: Vertical and Horizontal Heterogeneity [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2005 ABSTRACTVertical and latitudinal differences in bacterial community composition (BCC) in Lake Tanganyika were studied during the dry season of 2002 by means of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis of PCR-amplified 16S RNA fragments. Dominant bands were sequenced and identified as members of theCyanobacteria,Actinobacteria,Nitrospirae, green

Lignocelluloytic activities and composition of bacterial community in the camel rumen
AIMS Microbiology, 2021 <abstract> <p>The camel is well-adapted to utilize the poor-quality forages in the harsh desert conditions as the camel rumen sustains fibrolytic microorganisms, mainly bacteria that are capable of breaking down the lignocellulosic biomass efficiently.

Bacterial Community Composition Associated with Chironomid Egg Masses [PDF]
Journal of Insect Science, 2012 Chironomids (Diptera: Chironomidae) are the most widely distributed and often the most abundant insect in freshwater. They undergo a complete metamorphosis of four life stages, of which the egg, larva, and pupae are aquatic and the adult is terrestrial.
