Enteropathogen survival in soil from different land-uses is predominantly regulated by microbial community composition [PDF]
, 2015 peer-reviewedMicrobial enteropathogens can enter the environment via landspreading of animal slurries and manures. Biotic interactions with the soil microbial community can contribute to their subsequent decay.

Impacts of chemical gradients on microbial community structure [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2017 Abstract Succession of redox processes is sometimes assumed to define a basic microbial community structure for ecosystems with oxygen gradients. In this paradigm, aerobic respiration, denitrification, fermentation and sulfate reduction proceed in a thermodynamically determined order, known as the ‘redox tower’.

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 ...

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 ...

Genomic structure predicts metabolite dynamics in microbial communities [PDF]
Cell, 2020 SummaryThe metabolic function of microbial communities has played a defining role in the evolution and persistence of life on Earth, driving redox reactions that form the basis of global biogeochemical cycles. Community metabolism emerges from a hierarchy of processes including gene expression, ecological interactions, and environmental factors.

The Community Simulator: A Python package for microbial ecology
, 2020 Natural microbial communities contain hundreds to thousands of interacting species. For this reason, computational simulations are playing an increasingly important role in microbial ecology.

Microbial taxonomical composition in spruce phyllosphere, but not community functional structure, varies by geographical location [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Previous studies indicate that the plant phenotypic traits eventually shape its microbiota due to the community assembly based on the functional types.
