Microbial carbon metabolism associated with electrogenic sulphur oxidation in coastal sediments [PDF]
Recently, a novel electrogenic type of sulphur oxidation was documented in marine sediments, whereby filamentous cable bacteria (Desulfobulbaceae) are mediating electron transport over cm-scale distances. These cable bacteria are capable of developing an

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a greenhouse gas and also leads to stratospheric ozone depletion. In natural environments, only a single N2O sink process is the microbial reduction of N2O to N2, which is mediated by nitrous oxide reductase (NosZ) encoded by nosZ ...

Nitrosomonas europaea expresses a nitric oxide reductase during nitrification. [PDF]
In this paper, we report the identification of a norCBQD gene cluster that encodes a functional nitric oxide reductase (Nor) in Nitrosomonas europaea. Disruption of the norB gene resulted in a strongly diminished nitric oxide (NO) consumption by cells ...

Below the leaves: Integrating above‐ and below‐ground phenology for earth‐system predictability
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Almost every aspect of biological systems has phenology—a pattern in activity or function linked to annual cycles. Most terrestrial phenology research focusses on leaves, the onset of leaf out or senescence.

Phosphoserine phosphatase is required for serine and one-carbon unit synthesis in Hydrogenobacter thermophilus [PDF]
Hydrogenobacter thermophilus is an obligate chemolithoautotrophic bacterium of the phylum Aquificae and is capable of fixing carbon dioxide through the reductive tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle.

Shifts in coastal sediment oxygenation cause pronounced changes in microbial community composition and associated metabolism [PDF]
A key characteristic of eutrophication in coastal seas is the expansion of hypoxic bottom waters, often referred to as 'dead zones'. One proposed remediation strategy for coastal dead zones in the Baltic Sea is to mix the water column using pump stations,

Global aquaculture expansion necessitates sustainable technologies like biofloc technology (BFT), and the type of carbon source exerts a crucial impact on the functionality of biofloc systems. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of single carbon sources (glucose [G] and maltodextrin [M]) and their 1:1 mixture (GM) on water quality, microbial ...

While a functional quorum sensing system has been identified in the acidophilic chemolithoautotroph Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans ATCC 23270T and shown to modulate cell adhesion to solid substrates, nothing is known about the genes it regulates.
