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 ...

PhyloFunDB: A Pipeline to Create and Update Functional Gene Taxonomic Databases
Microorganisms, 2022 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 ...

Movement ecology and sex are linked to barn owl microbial community composition. [PDF]
, 2020 The behavioural ecology of host species is likely to affect their microbial communities, because host sex, diet, physiology, and movement behaviour could all potentially influence their microbiota.

Statistics of High-Throughput Characterization of Microbial Interactions [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 An active area of research interest is the inference of ecological models of complex microbial communities. Inferring such ecological models entails understanding the interactions between microbes and how they affect each other's growth. This dissertation employs a statistical perspective to contribute further to the knowledge currently addressing this

Microbial Active Matter: A Topological Framework [PDF]
Front. Phys., 23 June 2020, 2020 Topology transcends boundaries that conventionally delineate physical, biological and engineering sciences. Our ability to mathematically describe topology, combined with our access to precision tracking and manipulation approaches, has triggered a fresh appreciation of topological ramifications, specifically in mediating key functions in biological ...

A novel inducible prophage from the mycosphere inhabitant Paraburkholderia terrae BS437
Scientific Reports, 2017 Bacteriophages constitute key gene transfer agents in many bacteria. Specifically, they may confer gene mobility to Paraburkholderia spp. that dwells in soil and the mycosphere.

Ecology theory disentangles microbial dichotomies [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Microbes are often discussed in terms of dichotomies such as copiotrophic/oligotrophic and fast/slow-growing microbes, defined using the characterisation of microbial growth in isolated cultures. The dichotomies are usually qualitative and/or study-specific, sometimes precluding clear-cut results interpretation.

Safeguarding the microbial water quality from source to tap
npj Clean Water, 2021 Anthropogenic activities and climate change can deteriorate the freshwater quality and stress its availability. This stress can, in turn, have an impact on the biostability of drinking water.
