Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 419-433, February 2022., 2022 Abstract Coastal and shelf sediments are central in the global nitrogen (N) cycle as important sites for the removal of fixed N. However, this ecosystem service can be hampered by ongoing deoxygenation in many coastal areas. Natural reoxygenation could reinstate anoxic sediments as sites where fixed N is removed efficiently. To investigate this further,

Detrimental impact of the <i>Geobacter metallireducens</i> type VI secretion system on direct interspecies electron transfer. [PDF]
Microbiol Spectr, 2023 Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) is important in anaerobic communities of environmental and practical significance. Other than the need for close physical contact for electrical connections, the interactions of DIET partners are poorly ...
