Homogenisation of water and sediment bacterial communities in a shallow lake (lake Balihe, China)

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 155-171, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Planktonic and benthic bacterial communities hold central roles in the functioning of freshwater ecosystems and mediate key ecosystem services such as primary production and nutrient remineralisation. Although it is clear that such communities vary in composition both within and between lakes, the environmental factors and processes shaping ...

Finding the Core-Genes of Chloroplasts [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bioscience, Biochemistry, and Bioinformatics, 4(5):357--364, 2014, 2014
Due to the recent evolution of sequencing techniques, the number of available genomes is rising steadily, leading to the possibility to make large scale genomic comparison between sets of close species. An interesting question to answer is: what is the common functionality genes of a collection of species, or conversely, to determine what is specific ...

Fast responses, rich insights: Optimizing experimental stream studies using periphyton for comprehensive environmental assessment

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Experimental streams (ESs) are enclosures of fluvial ecosystems designed as flume microcosms to simulate flowing waters and assess environmental disturbances on aquatic communities' structure and function under controlled conditions. This study presents an ES system that combines ecological relevance with reliability in a compact design ...

The microbial community spatially varies during a Microcystis bloom event in Lake Kinneret

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 349-363, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Cyanobacterial blooms in lakes frequently display high spatial heterogeneity, which may drive temporal changes in microbial community structure. Here we report on the spatial (horizontal and vertical) structure of the cyanobacteria community and of the co‐occurring heterotroph microbial community during a major lake‐wide bloom event at Lake ...

Fatty Acid Phytyl Ester Synthesis in Chloroplasts of Arabidopsis[W]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 2012
This work identifies two phytyl ester synthases that act in fatty acid phytyl ester synthesis in chloroplasts during senescence and nitrogen deprivation to maintain the integrity of the photosynthetic membrane during abiotic stress and senescence. During

Microbially Influenced Corrosion in Epoxy‐Ceramic Coated Carbon‐Steel Cooler

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
A significant localization of corrosion attacks up to 1 mm deep were found in coated carbon‐steel cooler. Corrosion products and biofilm were enriched in mixed bacterial community including the genera Sulfuritalea and Methylotenera. Analysis of metabolic markers confirmed their coexistence with sulfate‐reducing bacteria.

Neglecting acclimation of photosynthesis under drought can cause significant errors in predicting leaf photosynthesis in wheat

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 2, Page 505-521, January 2023., 2023
Our study investigated how photosynthesis and its components acclimate to drought stress (DS) and growth temperature (Tgrowth) in wheat, and examined to what extent ignoring these acclimations would lead to errors in predicting photosynthesis. We found that both diffusional and biochemical parameters of photosynthesis and their thermal sensitivity ...

Hybrid Genetic Algorithm and Lasso Test Approach for Inferring Well Supported Phylogenetic Trees based on Subsets of Chloroplastic Core Genes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
The amount of completely sequenced chloroplast genomes increases rapidly every day, leading to the possibility to build large scale phylogenetic trees of plant species. Considering a subset of close plant species defined according to their chloroplasts, the phylogenetic tree that can be inferred by their core genes is not necessarily well supported ...

Glutathione and ascorbic acid in spinach (Spinacia oleracea) chloroplasts. The effect of hydrogen peroxide and of Paraquat.

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1983
The stroma of spinach chloroplasts contains ascorbic acid and glutathione at millimolar concentrations. [Reduced glutathione]/[oxidized glutathione] and [ascorbate]/[dehydroascorbate] ratios are high under both light and dark conditions and no evidence ...

Antifouling Coatings Inspired by Biological Templates

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
The polymeric coatings developed using biological templates combine antifouling properties of polymers with mechanical properties of micro‐ and nano‐particles yielding contact active, foulant releasable, and stimuli responsive materials with superior antifouling performance and demonstrate several applications in the marine environment, as delivery ...
