Hydroxylamine as an intermediate in ammonia oxidation by globally abundant marine archaea [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012 The ammonia-oxidizing archaea have recently been recognized as a significant component of many microbial communities in the biosphere. Although the overall stoichiometry of archaeal chemoautotrophic growth via ammonia (NH 3 ) oxidation to nitrite (NO 2 −

Diel Patterns in the Composition and Activity of Planktonic Microbes in a Subtropical Bay
Ocean-Land-Atmosphere ResearchPlanktonic microbes play a crucial role in the matter transformation and energy transfer of marine ecosystems. Marine microbial communities are profoundly influenced by various environmental factors, and their variations are typically investigated in a ...

Marine archaea take a short cut in the nitrogen cycle [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012 Seeing “nitrification” and “Archaea” in the title of the paper in PNAS by Alonso-Saez et al. (1) will not surprise anyone following the story about the role of these microbes in an important pathway of the nitrogen cycle. What will puzzle, if not surprise, everyone is the other key word, “urea.” That nitrogenous compound never comes up in discussions ...

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Influences of soil properties on archaeal diversity and distribution in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica [PDF]
, 2011 The Antarctic Dry Valleys are characterized by extremely low temperatures, arid conditions, high salinity and virtual absence of plants. Therefore, food webs of these microbially dominated soils are among the simplest on earth making these mineral soils ...

Two-hourly resolved microbial and viral dynamics in the subtropical Daya Bay
Scientific DataPlanktonic microbial and viral communities are fundamental drivers of biogeochemical cycling and energy flow in marine ecosystems. These communities display substantial variability in their composition at daily to sub-daily scales, which cannot be ...

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.
