Pilot-scale fermentation to produce trichodiene, a fungal volatile that suppresses trichothecene production in mycotoxigenic fungi [PDF]
Trichodiene is a sesquiterpene hydrocarbon and the precursor of trichothecene mycotoxins produced by Fusarium and other fungi. Interestingly, utilizing trichodiene as a volatile treatment has been shown to reduce mycotoxin production in Fusarium ...

Improved normalization of species count data in ecology by scaling with ranked subsampling (SRS): application to microbial communities [PDF]
Background Analysis of species count data in ecology often requires normalization to an identical sample size. Rarefying (random subsampling without replacement), which is the current standard method for normalization, has been widely criticized for its ...
