Comparative analysis of pyrosequencing and a phylogenetic microarray for exploring microbial community structures in the human distal intestine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BACKGROUND: Variations in the composition of the human intestinal microbiota are linked to diverse health conditions. High-throughput molecular technologies have recently elucidated microbial community structure at much higher resolution than was ...

Can regulatory T cells improve outcomes of sensitised patients after HLA-Ab incompatible renal transplantation: study protocol for the Phase IIa GAMECHANgER-1 trial

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2023
Background Kidney transplantation is the gold-standard treatment for patients with kidney failure. However, one-third of patients awaiting a kidney transplant are highly sensitized to human leukocyte antigens (HLA), resulting in an increased waiting time

Temperature and the development rates of thrips: Evidence for a constraint on local adaptation?

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2002
Typically, the relationship between insect development and temperature is described by two characteristics: the minimum temperature needed for development to occur (Tmin) and the number of day degrees required (DDR) for the completion of development.

A more significant role for insertion sequences in large-scale rearrangements in bacterial genomes

open access: yesmBio
Insertion sequences (ISs) are mobile pieces of DNA that are widespread in bacterial genomes. IS movements typically involve (i) excision of the IS element, (ii) cutting of target site DNA, and (iii) IS element insertion. This process generates a new copy

An approximate Bayesian method applied to estimating the trajectories of four British grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) populations from pup counts. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
1. For British grey seals, as with many pinniped species, population monitoring is implemented by aerial surveys of pups at breeding colonies. Scaling pup counts up to population estimates requires assumptions about population structure; this is ...

Bottom-Up Approaches to Synthetic Cooperation in Microbial Communities

open access: yesLife, 2019
Microbial cooperation pervades ecological scales, from single-species populations to host-associated microbiomes. Understanding the mechanisms promoting the stability of cooperation against potential threats by cheaters is a major question that only ...

A culture-independent approach to unravel uncultured bacteria and functional genes in a complex microbial community [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Most microorganisms in nature are uncultured with unknown functionality. Sequence-based metagenomics alone answers 'who/what are there?' but not 'what are they doing and who is doing it and how?'.

Prospects for the study of evolution in the deep biosphere

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Since the days of Darwin, scientists have used the framework of the theory of evolution to explore the interconnectedness of life on Earth and adaptation of organisms to the ever-changing environment.

Methane-carbon flow into the benthic food web at cold seeps – a case study from the Costa Rica subduction zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cold seep ecosystems can support enormous biomasses of free-living and symbiotic chemoautotrophic organisms that get their energy from the oxidation of methane or sulfide.
