Bacterial diversity and community structure in the rhizosphere of four Ferula species [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2018
AbstractThe medicinal value of the Ferula L. has been recognized for more than a thousand years. Wild stocks of Ferula have declined dramatically because high economic value has led to overharvesting. The objective of this study was to compare the rhizosphere microbial community of four Ferula species [F. syreitschikowii K.-Pol., F.

Diazotrophs Show Signs of Restoration in Amazon Rain Forest Soils with Ecosystem Rehabilitation. [PDF]

, 2020
Biological nitrogen fixation can be an important source of nitrogen in tropical forests that serve as a major CO2 sink. Extensive deforestation of the Amazon is known to influence microbial communities and the biogeochemical cycles they mediate. However,

Resource diversity structures aquatic bacterial communities [PDF]

, 2018
ABSTRACT Microbial diversity is strongly affected by the bottom-up effects of resource availability. However, because resource pools often exist as heterogeneous mixtures of distinct molecules, resource heterogeneity may also affect community diversity.

Diversity and Functionality of Culturable Endophytic Bacterial Communities in Chickpea Plants [PDF]

Plants, 2019
The aims of this study were to isolate, identify and characterize culturable endophytic bacteria from chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) roots grown in different soils. In addition, the effects of rhizobial inoculation, soil and stress on the functionality of those culturable endophytic bacterial communities were also investigated.

Salinity Effect on Soil Bacterial and Archaeal Diversity and Assembly in Phragmites australis Salt Marshes in the Qaidam Basin, China

Microorganisms
Extreme environments foster phylogenetically diverse microorganisms and unique community assembly patterns. Plateau saline marsh lakes represent understudied extreme habitats characterized by dual stressors of high salinity and low temperature.

Changes in the bacterial community structure and diversity during bamboo retting [PDF]

Biotechnology Journal, 2011
AbstractMicrobial retting is a critical step in obtaining fiber bundles from bamboo culm using indigenous microorganisms. A cultivation‐independent technique for monitoring the changes in bacteria community during bamboo retting was applied in this work. This technique involves genetic profiling of PCR‐amplified small‐subunit rRNA and the single‐strand
