A culture-independent approach to unravel uncultured bacteria and functional genes in a complex microbial community [PDF]

, 2012
Most microorganisms in nature are uncultured with unknown functionality. Sequence-based metagenomics alone answers 'who/what are there?' but not 'what are they doing and who is doing it and how?'.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

The assembly of microbial communities on red sandstone surfaces was shaped by dispersal limitation and heterogeneous selection

mSystems
Understanding the role of microbiota on stone surface is essential for developing effective grottoes conservation strategies. However, the ecological feature of microbial communities on stone surfaces has been rarely investigated systematically.

RNA-TGGE, a Tool for Assessing the Potential for Bioremediation in Impacted Marine Ecosystems

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2015
Cultivation-independent genomic approaches have greatly advanced our understanding of the ecology and diversity of microbial communities involved in biodegradation processes. However, much still needs to be resolved in terms of the structure, composition

Seeing the forest for the genes: using metagenomics to infer the aggregated traits of microbial communities

, 2014
Most environments harbor large numbers of microbial taxa with ecologies that remain poorly described and characterizing the functional capabilities of whole communities remains a key challenge in microbial ecology.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Evaluation of DESS as a storage medium for microbial community analysis [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Microbial ecology research requires sampling strategies that accurately represent the microbial community under study. These communities must typically be transported from the collection location to the laboratory and then stored until they can be ...

Microbial interactions in building of communities [PDF]

Molecular Oral Microbiology, 2012
SummaryEstablishment of a community is considered to be essential for microbial growth and survival in the human oral cavity. Biofilm communities have increased resilience to physical forces, antimicrobial agents and nutritional variations. Specific cell‐to‐cell adherence processes, mediated by adhesin‐receptor pairings on respective microbial surfaces,
