Microbial Community Profiling of Concrete [PDF]

Microorganisms
Concrete is the most widely used construction material worldwide, yet its production and disposal pose significant environmental challenges due to high carbon emissions and limited recyclability.

Fundamentals of Microbial Community Resistance and Resilience

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Microbial communities are at the heart of all ecosystems, and yet microbial community behavior in disturbed environments remains difficult to measure and predict.

Global assembly of microbial communities

mSystems, 2023
Different habitats harbor different microbial communities with elusive assembly mechanisms. This study comprehensively investigated the global assembly mechanisms of microbial communities and effects of community-internal influencing factors using the ...

Traceability between microbial community and environmental microbial Community in Maotai-flavor Daqu

Food Chemistry: X
Maotai-flavor Daqu is an indispensable and important fermentative and saccharifying agent in the production of Chinese sauce-flavored baijiu. The diversity and complexity of its microbial community has a decisive impact on the quality and flavor of the ...

Different genotypes regulate the microbial community structure in the soybean rhizosphere

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
The soybean rhizosphere has a specific microbial community, but the differences in microbial community structure between different soybean genotypes have not been explained.

The impact of protozoa addition on the survivability of Bacillus inoculants and soil microbiome dynamics

ISME Communications, 2022
Protists’ selective predation of bacterial cells is an important regulator of soil microbiomes, which might influence the success of bacterial releases in soils.

Synthetic microbial communities [PDF]

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2014
While natural microbial communities are composed of a mix of microbes with often unknown functions, the construction of synthetic microbial communities allows for the generation of defined systems with reduced complexity. Used in a top-down approach, synthetic communities serve as model systems to ask questions about the performance and stability of ...

Microbial Interactions within a Cheese Microbial Community [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2008
ABSTRACT The interactions that occur during the ripening of smear cheeses are not well understood. Yeast-yeast interactions and yeast-bacterium interactions were investigated within a microbial community composed of three yeasts and six bacteria found in cheese. The growth dynamics of this community was precisely described during

Microbial Communication Superhighways [PDF]

Cell, 2011
Exchange of information is critical for bacterial social behaviors. Now Dubey and Ben-Yehuda (2011) provide evidence for bacterial "nanotube" conduits that allow microbes to directly exchange cytoplasmic factors. Protein and DNA transfer between distantly related species raises the prospect of a new, widely distributed mechanism of bacterial ...

Comparative Metagenomics of Microbial Communities [PDF]

Science, 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 ...
