Adaptive Evolution of
Interactions between microorganisms in mixed communities are highly complex, being either syntrophic, neutral, predatory, or competitive. Evolutionary changes can occur in the interaction dynamics between community members as they adapt to coexistence ...

Biomineralization of Cu<sub>2</sub>S Nanoparticles by Geobacter sulfurreducens. [PDF]
Dissimilatory metal-reducing bacteria are ubiquitous in soils and aquifers and are known to utilize a wide range of metals as terminal electron acceptors. These transformations play an important role in the biogeochemical cycling of metals in pristine and contaminated environments and can be harnessed for bioremediation and metal ...

Water evaporation-induced electricity with Geobacter sulfurreducens biofilms. [PDF]
Water evaporation–induced electricity generators (WEGs) have recently attracted extensive research attention as an emerging renewable energy–harvesting technology that harvests electricity directly from water evaporation. However, the low power output, limited available material, complicated fabrication process, and extremely high cost ...
