Resolving environmental drivers of microbial community structure in Antarctic soils [PDF]
Antarctic soils are extremely cold, dry, and oligotrophic, yet harbour surprisingly high bacterial diversity. The severity of environmental conditions has constrained the development of multi-trophic communities, and species richness and distribution is ...

Using a diagnostic mitochondrial marker gene, we document the presence of furry‐eared dwarf lemurs, a species known from Madagascar's eastern montane rainforests, in several forest fragments across the island's central highlands. These findings raise new questions about when this species colonized these sites, how they tolerate these changing and ...

Microbial community changes induced by Managed Aquifer Recharge activities: linking hydrogeological and biological processes [PDF]
Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) is a technique used worldwide to increase the availability of water resources. We study how MAR modifies microbial ecosystems and its implications for enhancing biodegradation processes to eventually improve groundwater ...

While old‐growth forests are irreplaceable for conserving Madagascar's endemic amphibian diversity, agroforests can also support amphibian populations, especially if management enhances habitat complexity through increased leaf litter and the presence of large native trees.

Prebiotic effects of wheat Arabinoxylan related to the increase in Bifidobacteria, Roseburia and bacteroides/Prevotella in diet-induced obese mice [PDF]
Background: Alterations in the composition of gut microbiota - known as dysbiosis - has been proposed to contribute to the development of obesity, thereby supporting the potential interest of nutrients targeting the gut with beneficial effect for host ...

Victivallis vadensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a sugar-fermenting anaerobe from human faeces [PDF]
A novel strictly anaerobic, cellobiose-degrading bacterium, strain Cello, was isolated from a human faecal sample by combining enrichments in liquid and soft-agar basal media.

Lactic acid bacteria and identification with PCR-DGGE
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are an important group in the industrially using microorganisms. The first pure cultures of bacteria was "Bacterium lactis" (probably Lactococcus lactis), obtained in 1873 by J. Lister. LAB are Gram-positive, non motile, non spore-forming, except Sporolactobacillus inulinus, catalase negative, microaerophilic or anaerobic ...

Application of COMPOCHIP Microarray to Investigate the Bacterial Communities of Different Composts [PDF]
A microarray spotted with 369 different 16S rRNA gene probes specific to microorganisms involved in the degradation process of organic waste during composting was developed. The microarray was tested with pure cultures, and of the 30,258 individual probe-
