Stochastic Community Assembly: Does It Matter in Microbial Ecology? [PDF]
Understanding the mechanisms controlling community diversity, functions, succession, and biogeography is a central, but poorly understood, topic in ecology, particularly in microbial ecology.

Obesity alters gut microbial ecology.
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.

Microbial ecology of the arbuscular mycorrhiza [PDF]
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]
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]
AbstractInvasive 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 microbes, or ...

Microfluidic approaches in microbial ecology
Here we explore the use of microfluidic systems in microbial ecology, describing applications ranging from the investigation of single-cell behaviors to the imaging of complex three-dimensional biofilms.

Microbial solutions must be deployed against climate catastrophe
This paper is a call to action. By publishing concurrently across journals like an emergency bulletin, we are not merely making a plea for awareness about climate change.

Microbial ecology of the atmosphere [PDF]
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.
