Autochthonous bioaugmentation (ABA) strategies are primarily carried out using a single, highly efficient type of bacteria that is capable of directly degrading the target compound. However, no studies have examined the use of non-direct degraders (NDDs),

Multisubstrate Isotope Labeling and Metagenomic Analysis of Active Soil Bacterial Communities
Soil microbial diversity represents the largest global reservoir of novel microorganisms and enzymes. In this study, we coupled functional metagenomics and DNA stable-isotope probing (DNA-SIP) using multiple plant-derived carbon substrates and diverse ...

Bacterial metabolism of methylated amines and identification of novel methylotrophs in Movile Cave [PDF]
Movile Cave, Romania, is an unusual underground ecosystem that has been sealed off from the outside world for several million years and is sustained by non-phototrophic carbon fixation. Methane and sulfur-oxidising bacteria are the main primary producers,

Methanotrophy Alleviates Nitrogen Constraint of Carbon Turnover by Rice Root-Associated Microbiomes
The bioavailability of nitrogen constrains primary productivity, and ecosystem stoichiometry implies stimulation of N2 fixation in association with carbon sequestration in hotspots such as paddy soils.

A culture-independent approach to unravel uncultured bacteria and functional genes in a complex microbial community [PDF]
Most microorganisms in nature are uncultured with unknown functionality. Sequence-based metagenomics alone answers 'who/what are there?' but not 'what are they doing and who is doing it and how?'.

Ultra-sensitive isotope probing to quantify activity and substrate assimilation in microbiomes
Background Stable isotope probing (SIP) approaches are a critical tool in microbiome research to determine associations between species and substrates, as well as the activity of species. The application of these approaches ranges from studying microbial
