Accu16S/AccuITS: Accurate and broadly applicable amplicon sequencing for absolute microbiome quantification

iMeta, EarlyView.
Traditional 16S rRNA gene and Internal Transcribed Spacer region amplicon sequencing provides only relative abundance, often leading to biased ecological interpretations. To overcome this limitation, we developed Accu16S/AccuITS, an absolute quantification method for bacterial and fungal amplicons based on synthetic internal spike‐in DNA with known ...

Microscopic and qPCR comparison of fungal growth in residential carpets with different carpet fiber materials, at varying relative humidity levels, and presence of household dust [PDF]

, 2018
People spend 90% of their time indoors exposed to the microbiome of the built environment. Fungal species are part of this indoor microbiome that have been found to grow on various components of residential homes including house dust, wallpaper, gypsum ...

Grapevine Leaf Epiphytic Fungal and Bacterial Communities Are Influenced More by Spatial and Temporal Factors than by Powdery Mildew Fungicide Spray Programs

PhytoFrontiers
Synthetic fungicide treatments for managing grapevine powdery mildew have been widely applied in vineyards for decades, yet their ecological impacts on microorganisms in the phyllosphere have not been sufficiently studied.

Soil-plant compartments affect fungal microbiome diversity and composition in grapevine

Fungal ecology, 2019
Plant compartments provide unique niches that lead to specific microbial associations. The microbiota colonizing the endophytic compartment (endorhizosphere) and the rhizosphere contribute to productivity, plant growth, phytoremediation and carbon ...

Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...
