Variation in honey bee gut microbial diversity affected by ontogenetic stage, age and geographic location [PDF]
, 2015 Social honey bees, Apis mellifera, host a set of distinct microbiota, which is similar across the continents and various honey bee species. Some of these bacteria, such as lactobacilli, have been linked to immunity and defence against pathogens. Pathogen

Seasonal variations in cyanophage communities in the coastal waters of Kuwait
Kuwait Journal of Science, 2023 Cyanobacteria and the viruses that infect them (cyanophages) are crucial to the marine ecosystem, but little is known regarding the genetic diversity of natural cyanophages and their variation over space and time in Kuwait waters.

Resolving widespread and endemic dinoflagellates (Symbiodiniaceae) mutualistic with Indo-Pacific octocorals reveals differences in specificity based on host phylogeny. [PDF]
J PhycolAbstract Endosymbionts in the dinoflagellate family Symbiodiniaceae can form mutualisms with a diverse array of host invertebrates, constituting a widespread and ecologically important family. While those associated with reef‐building corals (order Scleractinia) have received considerable research attention, the diversity and ecology of zooxanthellae ...

Long-term agrichemical use leads to alterations in bacterial community diversity
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2012 Bacterial communities are key drivers of soil fertility and agriculture productivity. Understanding how soil bacterial communities change in response to different conditions is an important aspect in the development of sustainable agriculture. There is a

Microvariation Artifacts Introduced by PCR and Cloning of Closely Related 16S rRNA Gene Sequences [PDF]
, 2001 A defined template mixture of seven closely related 16S-rDNA clones was used in a PCR-cloning experiment to assess and track sources of artifactual sequence variation in 16S rDNA clone libraries. At least 14% of the recovered clones contained aberrations.

Nitrogen removal in a two-chambered microbial fuel cell: Establishment of a nitrifying-denitrifying microbial community on an intermittent aerated cathode [PDF]
, 2016 A microbial fuel cell (MFC) was used to study nitrogen dynamics and its feasibility for high strength wastewater treatment. Intermittent aeration was applied on the cathode chamber accomplishing the establishment of a simultaneous nitrifying-denitrifying

Approaches for diversity analysis of cultivable and non-cultivable bacteriain real soil
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2009 Until recently, investigators had no idea how accurately cultivated microorganisms represented the overall microbial diversity. The cultivation-dependent approach is limited by the fact that the overwhelming majority of microorganisms present in soil ...

Alphaproteobacteria communities depend more on soil types than land managements
Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2019 Soil properties and agricultural practices take a joint effect on the communities of soil bacteria. The aim of the present study was to survey Alphaproteobacterial communities as possible indicators of soil quality considering clay, loamy and sandy soils
