Practical application of methanol-mediated mutualistic symbiosis between Methylobacterium species and a roof greening moss, Racomitrium japonicum. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Bryophytes, or mosses, are considered the most maintenance-free materials for roof greening. Racomitrium species are most often used due to their high tolerance to desiccation.

Urinary microbiota diversity and composition in patients with advanced renal cell cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesBJUI Compass
Abstract Objectives This study aims to investigate the role of urinary microbiota in renal cell carcinoma; we analysed urinary microbiota in kidney cancer patients and explored its potential role as biomarker. Subjects and methods Samples were collected from 49 males (28 patients planned to undergo systemic therapy and 21 healthy volunteers).

Off-target metagenomics: Leveraging whole genome sequencing to study the bacteriome of the liverwort <i>Calasterella californica</i>. [PDF]

open access: yesAppl Plant Sci
Abstract Premise The recovery of non‐target organism reads, especially when whole organisms are sampled, constitutes a great opportunity for studying microbial communities. The increase in whole genome sequencing feasibility and the development of new marker‐based pipelines enable the use of short reads to study bacterial communities associated with ...

Divergent gut microbial metabolism supports niche partitioning in giant and red pandas [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionThe gut microbiota plays a pivotal role in regulating the host's physiological functions and behavior. The coevolutionary relationship between the host and its gut microbiota facilitates adaptation to specific ecological niches.

Infections caused by unusual Methylobacterium species. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Microbiol, 2011
ABSTRACTWe describe six patients with hospital-acquired bacteremia caused byMethylobacteriumspecies, includingM. radiotolerans(n= 2),M. thiocyanatum(n= 2),M. aminovorans(n= 1), andM. lusitanum(n= 1), which were confirmed to species level by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Among these patients, five had catheter-related bacteremia and all had favorable

Leaf-residing Methylobacterium species fix nitrogen and promote biomass and seed production in Jatropha curcas. [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnol Biofuels, 2015
Jatropha curcas L. (Jatropha) is a potential biodiesel crop that can be cultivated on marginal land because of its strong tolerance to drought and low soil nutrient content. However, seed yield remains low. To enhance the commercial viability and green index of Jatropha biofuel, a systemic and coordinated approach must be adopted to improve seed oil ...

Fine-Scale Adaptations to Environmental Variation and Growth Strategies Drive Phyllosphere Methylobacterium Diversity

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Methylobacterium is a prevalent bacterial genus of the phyllosphere. Despite its ubiquity, little is known about the extent to which its diversity reflects neutral processes like migration and drift, versus environmental filtering of life history ...

Zinc Resistance ofMethylobacteriumSpecies [PDF]

open access: yesBioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 1997
Zinc (Zn)-resistant Methylobacterium strains were isolated from soils collected in Japan. Although the soils used had never been polluted with Zn, Zn-resistant Methylobacterium-like red colonies were detected at 102 to 103 per gram of dry soil. The 16S ribosomal DNA sequence of the representative eleven strains were most similar to Methylobacterium ...

Susceptibility testing of clinical isolates of Methylobacterium species [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1992
Methylobacterium species represent a relatively new genus which is being increasingly isolated from cases of opportunistic infections. This study reports on 3 reference strains and 15 clinical isolates of Methylobacterium species. Susceptibility tests were performed by the agar dilution and commercial broth microdilution methods at both 30 and 35 ...
