Phylogeography of Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria among Disturbed Sediments, Disclosed by Analysis of the Dissimilatory Sulfite Reductase Genes ( dsrAB ) [PDF]
ABSTRACT Sediment samples were collected worldwide from 16 locations on four continents (in New York, California, New Jersey, Virginia, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Italy, Latvia, and South Korea) to assess the extent of the diversity and the distribution patterns of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) in contaminated sediments.

Organic sulfur from source to sink in low‐sulfate Lake Superior
Abstract Organic sulfur plays a crucial role in the biogeochemistry of aquatic sediments, especially in low sulfate (< 500 μM) environments like freshwater lakes and the Earth's early oceans. To better understand organic sulfur cycling in these systems, we followed organic sulfur in the sulfate‐poor (< 40 μM) iron‐rich (30–80 μM) sediments of Lake ...

Validation of key sponge symbiont pathways using genome‐centric metatranscriptomics
The sponge microbiome is hypothesised to carry out a range of metabolic functions that improve the fitness of the host. Our study tested whether these metabolic functions were active across three different sponge species by analysing the gene‐expression of their symbionts.

Sulfidogenic Microbial Communities of the Uzen High-Temperature Oil Field in Kazakhstan
Application of seawater for secondary oil recovery stimulates the development of sulfidogenic bacteria in the oil field leading to microbially influenced corrosion of steel equipment, oil souring, and environmental issues.

Depleted gas reservoirs are a promising underground hydrogen storage (UHS) option. This study is the first microbiological characterization of four Italian depleted reservoirs in the perspective of UHS. Our approach integrates hydrochemical analysis and metagenomic characterization, based on 16S rRNA and functional genes, with predictive functional ...

AbstractDiscoveries of transient liquid water in the Martian polar caps and the presence of liquid lakes and subsurface oceans in icy satellites have increased the interest of scientists in the capabilities of terrestrial extremophiles to grow and remain metabolically active in these extreme environments.

This study presents a large geochemically informed genomic dataset from a deep mine environment. We assembled hundreds of metagenome‐derived genomes, many from uncultivated groups, gaining insight into potential microbial metabolisms that in subsurface fluids and how these microbes interface with their biogeochemical environments at these extremes ...

Sulfate-reducing microorganisms in wetlands – fameless actors in carbon cycling and climate change
Freshwater wetlands are a major source of the greenhouse gas methane but at the same time can function as carbon sink. Their response to global warming and environmental pollution is one of the largest unknowns in the upcoming decades to centuries.

The widespread occurrence of sulfate-reducing microorganisms (SRMs) in temporarily oxic/hypoxic aquatic environments indicates an intriguing possibility that SRMs can prevail in constantly oxic/hypoxic terrestrial sulfate-rich environments.
