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.

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 ...

Predictive microbial ecology [PDF]
Microbial ecology is a science that studies the relationships between microorganisms and their biotic and abiotic environments. The ultimate goal of microbial ecology is to predict who is where with whom doing what, why and when. To achieve this predictive goal, computational modelling and simulation of microbial community dynamics and behaviour at ...

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 ...

PhyloFunDB: A Pipeline to Create and Update Functional Gene Taxonomic Databases
The increase in sequencing capacity has amplified the number of taxonomically unclassified sequences in most databases. The classification of such sequences demands phylogenetic tree construction and comparison to currently classified sequences, a ...
