Activated Sludge Microbial Community Assembly: The Role of Influent Microbial Community Immigration

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2023
AbstractWastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are host to diverse microbial communities and receive a constant influx of microbes from influent wastewater, however the impact of immigrants on the structure and activities of the activated sludge (AS) microbial community remains unclear.

Evidence of global-scale aeolian dispersal and endemism in isolated geothermal microbial communities of Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
New evidence in aerobiology challenges the assumption that geographical isolation is an effective barrier to microbial transport. However, given the uncertainty with which aerobiological organisms are recruited into existing communities, the ultimate ...

Growth and Break-Up of Methanogenic Granules Suggests Mechanisms for Biofilm and Community Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Methanogenic sludge granules are densely packed, small, spherical biofilms found in anaerobic digesters used to treat industrial wastewaters, where they underpin efficient organic waste conversion and biogas production.

Elevated CO2 and Warming Altered Grassland Microbial Communities in Soil Top-Layers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
As two central issues of global climate change, the continuous increase of both atmospheric CO2 concentrations and global temperature has profound effects on various terrestrial ecosystems.

Above and belowground community strategies respond to different global change drivers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Environmental changes alter the diversity and structure of communities. By shifting the range of species traits that will be successful under new conditions, environmental drivers can also dramatically impact ecosystem functioning and resilience.

Comparative Metagenomics of Microbial Communities [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2005
The species complexity of microbial communities and challenges in culturing representative isolates make it difficult to obtain assembled genomes. Here we characterize and compare the metabolic capabilities of terrestrial and marine microbial communities using largely unassembled sequence data obtained by shotgun sequencing DNA isolated from the ...

Plant and soil microbe responses to light, warming and nitrogen addition in a temperate forest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
1. Temperate forests across Europe and eastern North America have become denser since the 1950s due to less intensive forest management and global environmental changes such as nitrogen deposition and climate warming. Denser tree canopies result in lower

Genomic and in Situ Analyses Reveal the Micropruina spp. as Abundant Fermentative Glycogen Accumulating Organisms in Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal Systems

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) involves the cycling of biomass through carbon-rich (feast) and carbon-deficient (famine) conditions, promoting the activity of polyphosphate accumulating organisms (PAOs).

Direct Identification of Functional Amyloid Proteins by Label-Free Quantitative Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2017
Functional amyloids are important structural and functional components of many biofilms, yet our knowledge of these fascinating polymers is limited to a few examples for which the native amyloids have been isolated in pure form.
