Bridging the Holistic-Reductionist Divide in Microbial Ecology

mSystems, 2019
Microbial communities are inherently complex systems. To address this complexity, microbial ecologists are developing new, more elaborate laboratory models at an ever-increasing pace. ABSTRACT Microbial communities are inherently complex systems.

Microbial biomass and enzymatic activity in the rhizosphere of prickly-pear cactus genotypes inoculated with Bacillus subtilis and Paenibacillus Sp

Scientific Reports
Some bacterial taxa, such as Bacillus and Paenibacillus, are known to colonize the rhizosphere and promote plant growth. However, little is known about their effect on microbial biomass and enzymatic activity in the rhizosphere of plants under semi-arid ...

Influences of organic carbon speciation on hyporheic corridor biogeochemistry and microbial ecology

Nature Communications, 2018
The hyporheic corridor (HC) encompasses the river–groundwater continuum, where the mixing of groundwater (GW) with river water (RW) in the HC can stimulate biogeochemical activity.

Electronic Nose for Indoor Mold Detection and Identification

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This study explores the potential of a SnO2 nanowire‐based chemiresistive electronic nose not only to detect but also to identify two common indoor mold species, Stachybotrys chartarum and Chaetomium globosum on two different growth substrates. In a laboratory setup, the electronic nose displays high classification performance using optimized linear ...
