PCR biases distort bacterial and archaeal community structure in pyrosequencing datasets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
As 16S rRNA gene targeted massively parallel sequencing has become a common tool for microbial diversity investigations, numerous advances have been made to minimize the influence of sequencing and chimeric PCR artifacts through rigorous quality control ...

Microbial community development in a dynamic gut model is reproducible, colon region specific, and selective for Bacteroidetes and Clostridium cluster IX [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dynamic, multicompartment in vitro gastrointestinal simulators are often used to monitor gut microbial dynamics and activity. These reactors need to harbor a microbial community that is stable upon inoculation, colon region specific, and relevant to in ...

Environmental drivers of differences in microbial community structure in crude oil reservoirs across a methanogenic gradient

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Stimulating in situ microbial communities in oil reservoirs to produce natural gas is a potentially viable strategy for recovering additional fossil fuel resources following traditional recovery operations.

Microbial community structure shows differing levels of temporal stability in intertidal beach sands of the grand strand region of South Carolina.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Studies of microbial community structure in intertidal and supratidal beach sands along the California and Gulf of Mexico coasts have begun to reveal geographical patterns in microbial diversity through the use of next generation sequencing technology ...

Linking pollution induced community tolerance (PICT) and microbial community structure in chronically metal polluted estuarine sediments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We tested the ability of pollution induced community tolerance (PICT) to detect the effects of chronic metal pollution on estuarine sediment microbial communities, along a gradient spanning two orders of magnitude in metal concentrations.

Characterization of specificity of bacterial community structure within the burrow environment of the marine polychaete Hediste (Nereis) diversicolor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Bioturbation is known to stimulate microbial communities, especially in macrofaunal burrows where the abundance and activities of bacteria are increased.

Microbial taxonomical composition in spruce phyllosphere, but not community functional structure, varies by geographical location [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
Previous studies indicate that the plant phenotypic traits eventually shape its microbiota due to the community assembly based on the functional types.

Microbial community composition of transiently wetted Antarctic Dry Valley soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
During the summer months, wet (hyporheic) soils associated with ephemeral streams and lake edges in the Antarctic Dry Valleys (DVs) become hotspots of biological activity and are hypothesized to be an important source of carbon and nitrogen for arid DV ...

Microbial communities in the phyllosphere and endosphere of Norway spruce under attack by Heterobasidion

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Heterobasidion annosum species complex has been regarded as the most destructive disease agent of conifer trees in boreal forests. Tree microbiome can regulate the plant–pathogen interactions by influencing both host resistance and pathogen virulence ...
