Bioreporters in microbial ecology

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2002
Bioreporters are effective research tools for gaining an understanding of a microbe's perception of the world. Fitted with a fusion of an environmentally responsive promoter to a suitable reporter gene, a bacterial or fungal bioreporter is able to communicate its metabolic or transcriptional behavior in a habitat, and furnish us with information on the

The microbial ecology of permafrost

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2014
Permafrost constitutes a major portion of the terrestrial cryosphere of the Earth and is a unique ecological niche for cold-adapted microorganisms. There is a relatively high microbial diversity in permafrost, although there is some variation in community composition across different permafrost features and between sites.

Microbial Ecology of the Skin

Annual Review of Microbiology, 1988
Humans exist in an environment replete with microorganisms, yet only a few of these microorganisms become residents on the skin surface. These resident flora and the skin constitute a complex ecosystem in which organisms adapt to changes in the microenvironment and to coactions among microorganisms.

Periodontal microbial ecology

Periodontology 2000, 2005
The authors have taken the liberty of presenting this manuscript in two parts. The first is a brief primer on microbial ecology, because, although the importance of microbial ecology in periodontal diseases is widely recognized, most of us do not know precisely what is meant by the term.

Modeling in Microbial Ecology

2014
The bases and the principles of modeling in microbial community ecology and biogeochemistry are presented and discussed. Several examples are given. Among them, the fermentation process is largely developed, thus demonstrating how the model allows determining the microbial population growth rate, the death rate, and the maintenance rate. More generally,

Microbial Ecology of Leaves

Mycologia, 1991
The leaf surface of phyllosphere is a major habitat for micro-organisms. Microbes on or within leaves play important roles in plant ecology, and these microbes can be manipulated to enhance plant growth or reduce plant disease. This book presents a number of critical reviews by internationally recognized experts on the microbial ecology of leaves ...

Microelectrodes in microbial ecology

Analytical Chemistry, 1989
Understanding the microenvironment of bacteria has presented many challenges for the microbial ecologist. Simple intracellular capillary electrodes have been used in neurophysiology since the 1950s to measure action potentials in ion transport over biological membranes, and ion-selective electrodes were developed soon thereafter for the determination ...

A view on microbial ecology

World Journal of Microbiology & Biotechnology, 1992
In the research areas referred to above the Department of General Microbiology in Copenhagen is involved directly or indirectly. Microbial ecology in Denmark is wider in its scope and other departments or groups are active in different research areas.Marine and limnic sediments have been studied with great success in the Department of Ecology and ...

The Thematic Fields of Microbial Ecology

2014
The microbial world, generally invisible to the naked eye, has largely shaped our environment and has been instrumental in the emergence and evolution of all other living organisms on Earth. These microscopic unicellular organisms were for 3 billion years the only forms of life on our planet.
