Feedstocks influence on the process parameters and the microbial community in anaerobic digestion [PDF]
, 2013 To improve our understanding into the key parameters controlling and regulating the microbial groups involved in the anaerobic digestion (AD) process, particularly over multiple changes in operational conditions, triplicate lab-scale digesters fed with

Groundtruthing next-gen sequencing for microbial ecology-biases and errors in community structure estimates from PCR amplicon pyrosequencing [PDF]
, 2012 Analysis of microbial communities by high-throughput pyrosequencing of SSU rRNA gene PCR amplicons has transformed microbial ecology research and led to the observation that many communities contain a diverse assortment of rare taxa-a phenomenon termed ...

Resolving environmental drivers of microbial community structure in Antarctic soils [PDF]
, 2009 Antarctic soils are extremely cold, dry, and oligotrophic, yet harbour surprisingly high bacterial diversity. The severity of environmental conditions has constrained the development of multi-trophic communities, and species richness and distribution is ...

Characteristics of Microbial Community Structure at the Seafloor Surface of the Nankai Trough
Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2019 Phylogenetic analysis of bacteria and archaea on the seafloor surface of the Nankai Trough was conducted. DNA was extracted from a total of 14 samples (2 samples from 1 methane seep area and 12 samples from 12 general seafloor areas) and analyzed ...

Deterministic processes dominate soil microbial community assembly in subalpine coniferous forests on the Loess Plateau [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Microbial community assembly is influenced by a continuum (actually the trade-off) between deterministic and stochastic processes. An understanding of this ecological continuum is of great significance for drawing inferences about the effects of ...

The ecology and control of earthworms on golf courses [PDF]
, 2006 Earthworm casts on golf courses affect the playability of the turf and can potentially damage mowing equipment. Traditionally this problem has been limited using chemical controls.

Microbial Community Structure in Ancient European Arctic Peatlands
Plants, 2022 Northern peatlands, which are crucial reservoirs of carbon and nitrogen (415 ± 150 and 10 ± 7 Pg, respectively), are vulnerable to microbial mineralization after permafrost thaw. This study was carried out in four key sites containing northern permafrost
