Cyanobacterial Blooms Are Not a Result of Positive Selection by Freshwater Eutrophication

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Long-standing cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CyanoHABs) are known to result from synergistic interaction between elevated nutrients and superior ecophysiology of cyanobacteria.

Novel Long-Chain Fatty Acid (LCFA)-Degrading Bacteria and Pathways in Anaerobic Digestion Promoted by Hydrochar as Revealed by Genome-Centric Metatranscriptomics Analysis

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2022
Long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) are difficult to be degraded in anaerobic digestion (AD), and the known LCFA degrading bacteria are only limited to the families Syntrophomonadaceae and Syntrophaceae. Here, we found that hydrochar effectively promoted AD of

Integrated Meta-omics Reveals a Fungus-Associated Bacteriome and Distinct Functional Pathways in Clostridioides difficile Infection

mSphere, 2019
There has been no prior application of matched metagenomics and metatranscriptomics in Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) evaluating the role of fungi in CDI or identifying community functions that contribute to the development of this disease.

RNA Viruses Linked to Eukaryotic Hosts in Thawed Permafrost

mSystems, 2022
Arctic permafrost is thawing due to global warming, with unknown consequences on the microbial inhabitants or associated viruses. DNA viruses have previously been shown to be abundant and active in thawing permafrost, but little is known about RNA ...

Disentangling hindgut metabolism in the American cockroach through single-cell genomics and metatranscriptomics

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Omnivorous cockroaches host a complex hindgut microbiota comprised of insect-specific lineages related to those found in mammalian omnivores. Many of these organisms have few cultured representatives, thereby limiting our ability to infer the functional ...

Directed Culturing of Microorganisms Using Metatranscriptomics [PDF]

mBio, 2011
ABSTRACT The vast majority of bacterial species remain uncultured, and this severely limits the investigation of their physiology, metabolic capabilities, and role in the environment. High-throughput sequencing of RNA transcripts (RNA-seq) allows the investigation of the diverse physiologies from uncultured ...

The Osmolyte Ties That Bind: Genomic Insights Into Synthesis and Breakdown of Organic Osmolytes in Marine Microbes

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The production and consumption of organic matter by marine organisms plays a central role in the marine carbon cycle. Labile organic compounds (metabolites) are the major currency of energetic demands and organismal interaction, but these compounds ...

Genome-Resolved Metagenomics and Metatranscriptomics Reveal Insights into the Ecology and Metabolism of Anaerobic Microbial Communities in PCB-Contaminated Sediments

Environmental Science and Technology, 2023
Growth of organohalide-respiring bacteria such as Dehalococcoides mccartyi on halogenated organics (e.g., polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)) at contaminated sites or in enrichment culture requires interaction and support from other microbial community ...
