Diversity, structure and sources of bacterial communities in earthworm cocoons [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2018
AbstractAnimals start interactions with the bacteria that will constitute their microbiomes at embryonic stage. After mating, earthworms produce cocoons externally which will be colonized with bacteria from their parents and the environment. Due to the key role bacterial symbionts play on earthworm fitness, it is important to study bacterial ...

Changes and Driving Mechanism of Microbial Community Structure during Paocai Fermentation

Fermentation, 2022
Fermentation of paocai is a dynamic process of the microbial community structure, and the interaction between community structure and physicochemical factors endows paocai with unique taste and flavor.

Basic Structures of Gut Bacterial Communities in Eusocial Insects

Insects, 2023
Gut bacterial communities assist host animals with numerous functions such as food digestion, nutritional provision, or immunity. Some social mammals and insects are unique in that their gut microbial communities are stable among individuals. In this review, we focus on the gut bacterial communities of eusocial insects, including bees, ants, and ...

Impact of Arsenite on the Bacterial Community Structure and Diversity in Soil

Microbes and environments, 2016
The impact of arsenite (As[III]) on the bacterial community structure and diversity in soil was determined by incubating soil slurries with 50, 500, and 5,000 μM As(III). As(III) was oxidized to arsenate (As[V]), and the microbial contribution to As(III) oxidation was 70-100%.

Mode and Structure of the Bacterial Community on Human Scalp Hair

Microbes and Environments, 2019
Bacterial communities on various parts of the human body are distinct. We were the first to report the existence of a stable bacterial community on human scalp hair and demonstrated that an analysis of its structure by terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) is helpful for individual discrimination.

Structure and Diversity of Soil Bacterial Communities in Offshore Islands [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractThe effects of biogeographical separation and parent material differences in soil bacterial structure and diversity in offshore islands remain poorly understood. In the current study, we used next-generation sequencing to characterize the differences in soil bacterial communities in five offshore subtropical granite islands (Matsu Islets, MI ...

The archaeal and bacterial community structure in composted cow manures is defined by the original populations: a shotgun metagenomic approach

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionOrganic wastes are composted to increase their plant nutritional value, but little is known about how this might alter the bacterial and archaeal community structure and their genes.MethodsCow manure was collected from three local small-scale

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Characterization of Bacterial Community Structure on a Weathered Pegmatitic Granite [PDF]

Microbial Ecology, 2006
This study exploited the contrasting major element chemistry of a pegmatitic granite to investigate mineralogical influences on bacterial community structure. Intact crystals of variably weathered muscovite, plagioclase, K-feldspar, and quartz were extracted, together with whole-rock granite.

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

Frontiers 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
