Wildfire effects on diversity and composition in soil bacterial communities

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2020
In recent years, the Mediterranean area has witnessed an increase of both the frequency and severity of large fires, which appears to be intimately associated with climate and land use changes. To measure the impact of wildfires on living organisms, diverse indicators have been proposed.

Atmospheric Deposition Impact on Bacterial Community Composition in the NW Mediterranean [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Atmospheric deposition is a source of inorganic nutrients and organic matter to the ocean, and can favor the growth of some planktonic species over others according to their nutrient requirements. Atmospheric inputs from natural and anthropogenic sources are nowadays increasing due to desertification and industrialization, respectively.

Changes in the bacterial community composition of different habitats along a polluted river (Suquía River, Cordoba, Argentina)

open access: yesEcología Austral, 2017
The objective of the present study was to investigate the influence of environmental conditions on the bacterial community composition in water, sediment and riparian soil during different water flow periods.

Genotype-environment interactions determine microbiota plasticity in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2023
Most multicellular organisms harbor microbial colonizers that provide various benefits to their hosts. Although these microbial communities may be host species- or even genotype-specific, the associated bacterial communities can respond plastically to ...

Microbial community composition and function in an urban waterway with combined sewer overflows before and after implementation of a stormwater storage pipe [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2023
When the wastewater volume exceeds the sewer pipe capacity during extreme rainfall events, untreated sewage discharges directly into rivers as combined sewer overflow (CSO).

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

Short-Term Grazing Exclusion Alters Soil Bacterial Co-occurrence Patterns Rather Than Community Diversity or Composition in Temperate Grasslands

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Grazing exclusion is one of the most common practices for degraded grassland restoration worldwide. Soil microorganisms are critical components in soil and play important roles in maintaining grassland ecosystem functions.

Urban greenness influences airborne bacterial community composition

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2016
Urban green space provides health benefits for city dwellers, and new evidence suggests that microorganisms associated with soil and vegetation could play a role. While airborne microorganisms are ubiquitous in urban areas, the influence of nearby vegetation on airborne microbial communities remains poorly understood.

Bacterial and fungal community composition and community-level physiological profiles in forest soils

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2023
We characterized the potential functioning and composition of the bacterial and fungal communities in the O and A horizons of forest soils using community-level physiological profile (CLPP) based on BIOLOG analysis, and polymerase chain reaction–denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) analysis of 16S and 18S rDNA fragments, respectively.
