RNA interference in marine and freshwater sponges [PDF]
, 2011 Background: The marine sponge Tethya wilhelma and the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri are emerging model organisms to study evolution, gene regulation, development, and physiology in non-bilaterian animal systems. Thus far, functional methods (i.e.,

Novel marine carbazole-degrading bacteria [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2009 Eleven carbazole (CAR)-degrading bacterial strains were isolated from seawater collected off the coast of Japan using two different media. Seven isolates were shown to be most closely related to the genera Erythrobacter, Hyphomonas, Sphingosinicella, Caulobacter, and Lysobacter.

Quorum Sensing Inhibition by Marine Bacteria [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2019 Antibiotic resistance has been increasingly reported for a wide variety of bacteria of clinical significance. This widespread problem constitutes one of the greatest challenges of the twenty-first century. Faced with this issue, clinicians and researchers have been persuaded to design novel strategies in order to try to control pathogenic bacteria ...

Chemotrophic Microbial Mats and Their Potential for Preservation in the Rock Record [PDF]
, 2009 Putative microbialites are commonly regarded to have formed in association with photosynthetic microorganisms, such as cyanobacteria. However, many modern microbial mat ecosystems are dominated by chemotrophic bacteria and archaea.

How endo- is endo-?: surface sterilization of delicate samples: a Bryopsis (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta) case study [PDF]
, 2010 In the search for endosymbiotic bacteria, elimination of ectosymbionts is a key point of attention. Commonly, the surface of the host itself or the symbiotic structures are sterilized with aggressive substances such as chlorine or mercury derivatives ...
