Iron and phosphorus cycling in deep saprolite, Luquillo Mountains, Puerto Rico [PDF]

, 2010
Rapid weathering and erosion rates in mountainous tropical watersheds lead to highly variable soil and saprolite thicknesses which in turn impact nutrient fluxes and biological populations.

Unusual Plastoquinones in Non‐Phototrophic Nitrifying Bacteria

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
Chemolithoautotrophic nitrifying bacteria of the genus Nitrospira exclusively possess unusual methyl‐plastoquinones with a standard redox potential below that of canonical plastoquinone and ubiquinone, suggesting functional roles in bidirectional electron transport.

Microbial CO₂ fixation and sulfur cycling associated with low-temperature emissions at the Lilliput hydrothermal field, southern Mid-Atlantic Ridge (9°S) [PDF]

, 2007
Lilliput was discovered in 2005 as the southernmost known hydrothermal field along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. It is exceptional in that it lacks high-temperature venting probably because of a thickened crust.

The Ecology of Acidophilic Microorganisms in the Corroding Concrete Sewer Environment

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Concrete corrosion is one of the most significant problems affecting valuable sewer infrastructure on a global scale. This problem occurs in the aerobic zone of the sewer, where a layer of surface corrosion develops on the exposed concrete and the ...

Microbial dynamics in a High Arctic glacier forefield: A combined field, laboratory, and modelling approach [PDF]

, 2016
Modelling the development of soils in glacier forefields is necessary in order to assess how microbial and geochemical processes interact and shape soil development in response to glacier retreat.

Engineered Living Energy Materials

Interdisciplinary Materials, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 412-455, May 2025.
Engineered living energy materials (ELEMs) are nascent research frontier for enabling sustainable energy conversion and storage. These materials exhibit unique characteristics such as self‐regeneration, biodegradability, environmental response, and evolutionary adaptability. This paper overviews different energy conversion bio‐modules, summarizes their

Microbial ecosystem constructed in water for successful organic hydroponics [PDF]

, 2008
Conventional hydroponics systems generally use only chemical fertilisers, not organic ones, since there are no microbial ecosystems present in such systems to mineralise organic compounds to inorganic nutrients.

90‐day oral toxicity study in rats of a protein‐rich powder derived from Xanthobacter sp. SoF1

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 44, Issue 11, Page 1816-1830, November 2024.
Abstract Xanthobacter sp. SoF1 (SoF1) is an autotrophic hydrogen‐oxidizing bacteria that produces protein‐rich biomass and has potential to be an alternative protein source that is more environmentally sustainable than animal and plant derived proteins.

Discovery of symbiotic nitrogen fixation and chemoautotrophy in cold-water corals [PDF]

, 2015
Cold-water corals (CWC) are widely distributed around the world forming extensive reefs at par with tropical coral reefs. They are hotspots of biodiversity and organic matter processing in the world’s deep oceans.

Succession of Bacteria and Archaea Within the Soil Micro‐Food Web Shifts Soil Respiration Dynamics

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2024.
Nematode grazing and plant litter are important biotic control mechanisms of the soil microbiome. We show that major bacterial and archaeal taxa respond in five distinct ways to top‐down and bottom‐up controls, resulting in a succession of soil microbiota and shifts in soil respiration dynamics. ABSTRACT Bacterivorous nematodes are important grazers in
