Diversity of bacterial chemosensory systems
Chemosensory system is the most complex, specialized mode of signal transduction in bacteria and archaea. It is composed of several core and auxiliary protein components that are highly organized in order to deliver a fast response to changing environmental conditions.

BacDive—the Bacterial Diversity Metadatabase [PDF]
BacDive-the Bacterial Diversity Metadatabase (http://bacdive.dsmz.de) merges detailed strain-linked information on the different aspects of bacterial and archaeal biodiversity. Currently (release 9/2013), BacDive contains entries for 23 458 strains and provides information on their taxonomy, morphology, physiology, sampling and concomitant ...

Warming alters elevation distributions of soil bacterial and fungal communities in alpine grasslands
It is still unknown whether climate warming can change the elevation distribution of soil microbial communities in alpine grasslands. Both species and phylogenetic β-diversity of soil bacterial and fungal communities were investigated at three alpine ...

Effects of precipitation changes on soil bacterial community composition and diversity in the Junggar desert of Xinjiang, China [PDF]
Variation in precipitation can markedly affect the structure and function of soil microbial communities, especially in arid areas which are limited by water resources.

Unlocking the microbiome communities of Banana (Musa spp.) under disease stressed (Fusarium wilt) and non-stressed conditions [PDF]
We assessed the diversity, structure, and assemblage of bacterial and fungal communities associated with banana plants with and without Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) symptoms.

Diverse Bacterial Microcompartment Organelles [PDF]
SUMMARY Bacterial microcompartments (MCPs) are sophisticated protein-based organelles used to optimize metabolic pathways. They consist of metabolic enzymes encapsulated within a protein shell, which creates an ideal environment for catalysis and facilitates the channeling of toxic/volatile intermediates to downstream enzymes.

Global patterns in bacterial diversity [PDF]
Microbes are difficult to culture. Consequently, the primary source of information about a fundamental evolutionary topic, life's diversity, is the environmental distribution of gene sequences. We report the most comprehensive analysis of the environmental distribution of bacteria to date, based on 21,752 16S rRNA sequences compiled from 111 studies of

A catalog of the diversity and ubiquity of bacterial microcompartments [PDF]
Abstract Bacterial microcompartments (BMCs) are organelles that segregate segments of metabolic pathways which are incompatible with surrounding metabolism. BMCs consist of a selectively permeable shell, composed of three types of structurally conserved proteins, together with sequestered enzymes that vary among functionally distinct ...
