Intraspecies heterogeneity in microbial interactions
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2021Microbial interactions are increasingly recognized as an integral part of microbial physiology. Cell-cell communication mediated by quorum sensing and metabolite exchange is a formative element of microbial interactions. However, loss-of-function mutations in quorum-sensing components are common across diverse species.

Microbial interactions with aluminium
BioMetals, 1996Although aluminium is the most abundant metal in the Earth's crust, it lacks biological functions and shows a low bioavailability. Acid rain, however, solubilizes aluminium to toxic levels. Most research on the biological effects of aluminium has been centred on the analysis of aluminium-tolerant plants as well as its possible relationship with ...

Sphingolipids in host–microbial interactions
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2018Sphingolipids, a lipid class characterized by a long-chain amino alcohol backbone, serve vital structural and signaling roles in eukaryotes. Though eukaryotes produce sphingolipids, this capacity is phylogenetically highly restricted in Bacteria.

A multidimensional perspective on microbial interactions. [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2019 ABSTRACT Beyond being simply positive or negative, beneficial or inhibitory, microbial interactions can involve a diverse set of mechanisms, dependencies and dynamical properties. These more nuanced features have been described in great detail for some specific types of interactions, (e.g. pairwise metabolic cross-feeding, quorum sensing

Microbial Interactions in Soil
2019This chapter discusses the interactions of microorganisms with their surrounding biota in soil with an emphasis on prokaryotes. It describes the interactions among bacteria, as well as between bacteria and higher organisms such as fungi, protozoa, Bdellovibrio, and plant roots.

Microbial Interactions with Neutrophils
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1983Bacterial pathogenesis is heavily dependent on the capacities of microbial cells to avoid activating or to resist antimicrobial mediators of neutrophil polymorphonuclear granulocytes, the first line of phagocytic defense against infection. These capacities can but be understood in terms of the cell biology of neutrophils.

Microbial Interactions in Food Fermentations
Annual Review of Food Science and Technology, 2013Microbial interactions are important for the success and safety of food fermentations. Although much indispensable work has described the microbial succession in various fermentations, little is known about how the microbes present interact. Here, we discuss the various mechanisms of microbial interaction from trophic interactions to cell signaling. We

Microbial interactions in sediment communities
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1982Abstract Mineralization of organic matter in aquatic ecosystems with shallow waters occurs to a large extent in their sediments under anoxic conditions. This is achieved by a community of bacteria, which are the catalysts in a sequence of processes.

Significance of microbial interactions in control of microbial ecosystems
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 1970AbstractA microbial ecosystem represents a delicately balanced population of microorganisms each interacting with and influencing the other members of the population. An understanding of the nature and effects of these interactions is essential to improving the performance of these ecologies, which are important, in such diverse processes as biological

Microbial interactions withcatheter material
Nutrition, 1997The use of central venous catheters to deliver parenteral nutrition therapy is often complicated by infection. The original source of these infections has been debated but it appears that organisms colonizing the skin or those contaminating the catheter hub are most often responsible. Before forming a biofilm, an organism must first successfully attach
