Phylogenetic structure of soil bacterial communities predicts ecosystem functioning [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2015
Quantifying diversity with phylogeny-informed metrics helps understand the effects of diversity on ecosystem functioning (EF). The sign of these effects remains controversial because phylogenetic diversity and taxonomic identity may interactively influence EF. Positive relationships, traditionally attributed to complementarity effects, seem unimportant

Bacterial diversity and abundance of a creek valley sites reflected soil pH and season

open access: yesOpen Life Sciences, 2015
The effect of environmental factors on bacterial and actinobacterial communities was assessed to predict microbial community structure in natural gradients.

Metagenomics analysis of bacterial structure communities within natural biofilm [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2019
Résumé Les profils bactériens du biofilm domestique naturel n'ont pas été largement étudiés. La majorité de ces lignées bactériennes ne sont pas cultivables. Ainsi, cette étude vise (i) à énumérer certaines lignées bactériennes potentielles en utilisant une méthode basée sur la culture dans des échantillons de biofilm et confirmée en utilisant Biolog ...

Links between soil microbial communities and plant traits in a species-rich grassland under long-term climate change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Climate change can influence soil microorganisms directly by altering their growth and activity but also indirectly via effects on the vegetation, which modifies the availability of resources.

Architectural differentiation reflects bacterial community structure in stream biofilms [PDF]

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2009
Abstract Laboratory studies have documented the extensive architectural differentiation of biofilms into complex structures, including filamentous streamers generated by turbulent flow. Still, it remains elusive whether this spatial organization of natural biofilms is reflected in the community structure.

Bacterial and archaeal community structures in perennial cave ice [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
AbstractIce entrenched microcosm represents a vast reservoir of novel species and a proxy for past climate reconstitution. Among glacial ecosystems, ice caves represent one of the scarcely investigated frozen habitats. To characterize the microbial diversity of perennial ice from karst ecosystems, Roche 454 sequencing of 16S rRNA gene amplicons from ...

Bacterial epibiont communities of panmictic Antarctic krill are spatially structured [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2021
AbstractAntarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are amongst the most abundant animals on Earth, with a circumpolar distribution in the Southern Ocean. Genetic and genomic studies have failed to detect any population structure for the species, suggesting a single panmictic population.

The Variation in the Rhizosphere Microbiome of Cotton with Soil Type, Genotype and Developmental Stage

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Plant roots and soil microorganisms interact with each other mainly in the rhizosphere. Changes in the community structure of the rhizosphere microbiome are influenced by many factors.

Soil organic matter availability and climate drive latitudinal patterns in bacterial diversity from tropical to cold temperate forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bacteria are one of the most abundant and diverse groups of micro-organisms and mediate many critical terrestrial ecosystem processes. Despite the crucial ecological role of bacteria, our understanding of their large-scale biogeography patterns across ...
