Microbial ecology of the atmosphere. [PDF]
FEMS Microbiol Rev, 2022 AbstractThe atmosphere connects habitats across multiple spatial scales via airborne dispersal of microbial cells, propagules and biomolecules. Atmospheric microorganisms have been implicated in a variety of biochemical and biophysical transformations.

Obesity alters gut microbial ecology
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2005 We have analyzed 5,088 bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences from the distal intestinal (cecal) microbiota of genetically obese ob/ob mice, lean ob/+ and wild-type siblings, and their ob/+ mothers, all fed the same polysaccharide-rich diet.

Antimicrobial agents and microbial ecology. [PDF]
AIMS Microbiol, 2022 <abstract> <p>Antimicrobials are therapeutic substances used to prevent or treat infections. Disinfectants are antimicrobial agents applied to non-living surfaces. Every year, several thousand tonnes of antimicrobials and their by-products are released into the environment and in particular into the aquatic environment.

Microbial ecology of the arbuscular mycorrhiza [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2000 Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi interact with a wide variety of organisms during all stages of their life. Some of these interactions such as grazing of the external mycelium are detrimental, while others including interactions with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PG PR) promote mycorrhizal functioning.

Multivariate analyses in microbial ecology [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2007 Environmental microbiology is undergoing a dramatic revolution due to the increasing accumulation of biological information and contextual environmental parameters. This will not only enable a better identification of diversity patterns, but will also shed more light on the associated environmental conditions, spatial locations, and seasonal ...

Microbial ecology of biological invasions [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2007 Abstract Invasive microbes, plants and animals are a major threat to the composition and functioning of ecosystems; however, the mechanistic basis of why exotic species can be so abundant and disruptive is not well understood. Most studies have focused on invasive plants and animals, although few have considered the effects of invasive ...

Perspectives and Benefits of High-Throughput Long-Read Sequencing in Microbial Ecology
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2021 Short-read, high-throughput sequencing (HTS) methods have yielded numerous important insights into microbial ecology and function. Yet, in many instances short-read HTS techniques are suboptimal, for example, by providing insufficient phylogenetic ...

Disentangling the genetic basis of rhizosphere microbiome assembly in tomato
Nature Communications, 2022 Genetics factors involved in rhizosphere microbiomes assembly remain largely elusive. Here, the authors integrate microbiomics and quantitative plant genetics to reveal genetic loci associated with specific microbes and rhizobacterial traits underlying ...
