Predictive microbial ecology [PDF]
Microbial Biotechnology, 2009 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 ...

Stochastic Community Assembly: Does It Matter in Microbial Ecology? [PDF]
, 2017 Understanding the mechanisms controlling community diversity, functions, succession, and biogeography is a central, but poorly understood, topic in ecology, particularly in microbial ecology.

Microbial and metabolic succession on common building materials under high humidity conditions. [PDF]
, 2019 Despite considerable efforts to characterize the microbial ecology of the built environment, the metabolic mechanisms underpinning microbial colonization and successional dynamics remain unclear, particularly at high moisture conditions. Here, we applied

Marine crude-oil biodegradation: a central role for interspecies interactions [PDF]
, 2012 The marine environment is highly susceptible to pollution by petroleum, and so it is important to understand how microorganisms degrade hydrocarbons, and thereby mitigate ecosystem damage. Our understanding about the ecology, physiology, biochemistry and
