The case for biocentric microbiology

Gut Pathogens, 2009
Microbiology is a relatively modern scientific discipline intended to objectively study microorganisms, including pathogens and nonpathogens. However, since its birth, this science has been negatively affected by anthropocentric convictions, including ...

The influence of primer choice on archaeal phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene PCR

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2021
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays targeting 16S rRNA genes followed by DNA sequencing are still important tools to characterize microbial communities present in environmental samples.

Phyllosphere microbiology with special reference to diversity and plant genotype [PDF]

, 2008
The phyllosphere represents the habitat provided by the aboveground parts of plants, and on a global scale supports a large and complex microbial community.

Metagenomics reveals novel microbial signatures of farm exposures in house dust

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Indoor home dust microbial communities, important contributors to human health, are shaped by environmental factors, including farm-related exposures. Advanced metagenomic whole genome shotgun sequencing (WGS) improves detection and characterization of ...

Environmental microbiology

Physical Sciences Reviews, 2017
Abstract For most people, microorganisms are out of sight and therefore out of mind but they are large, extremely diverse group of organisms, they are everywhere and are the dominant form of life on planet Earth. Almost every surface is colonized by microorganisms, including our skin; however most of them are harmless to humans. Some microorganisms can

Sulfur Metabolites Play Key System-Level Roles in Modulating Denitrification

mSystems, 2021
Competition between nitrate-reducing bacteria (NRB) and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) for resources in anoxic environments is generally thought to be governed largely by thermodynamics.

Genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of Cronobacter species, with particular attention to the newly reclassified species C. helveticus, C. pulveris, and C. zurichensis [forthcoming] [PDF]

, 2014
In 2013, Enterobacter helveticus, E. pulveris and E. turicensis, were reclassified as Cronobacter helveticus, C. pulveris and C. zurichensis, respectively. Previously these species had been used as negative controls for some Cronobacter detection assays.

Application of quasimetagenomics methods to define microbial diversity and subtype Listeria monocytogenes in dairy and seafood production facilities

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Microorganisms frequently colonize surfaces within food production facilities. Detection of Listeria monocytogenes in this setting relies on culture-dependent methods, but the complex dynamics of bacterial interactions within these environments and their

Increased variability of microbial communities in restored salt marshes nearly 30 years after tidal flow restoration [PDF]

, 2012
We analyzed microbial diversity and community composition from four salt marsh sites that were impounded for 40–50 years and subsequently restored and four unimpounded sites in southeastern Connecticut over one growing season.
