Effects of Lake Erie dredged material on microbiomes in a farm soil of northwestern Ohio

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 53, Issue 4, Page 430-440, July/August 2024.
Abstract Dredged materials are often considered as candidates for replenishing lost topsoils in the watersheds of rivers and lakes. This study aimed to investigate the impacts of Lake Erie dredged material on the microbial community in a farm soil of northwestern Ohio.

Ubiquitous but unique: Water depth and oceanographic attributes shape methane seep communities

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page 1218-1232, May 2024.
Abstract In the past decade, thousands of previously unknown methane seeps have been identified on continental margins around the world. As we have come to appreciate methane seep habitats to be abundant components of marine ecosystems, we have also realized they are highly dynamic in nature.

Arbuscular mycorrhiza convey significant plant carbon to a diverse hyphosphere microbial food web and mineral‐associated organic matter

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 242, Issue 4, Page 1661-1675, May 2024.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) transport substantial plant carbon (C) that serves as a substrate for soil organisms, a precursor of soil organic matter (SOM), and a driver of soil microbial dynamics. Using two‐chamber microcosms where an air gap isolated AMF from roots, we 13CO2‐labeled Avena barbata for 6 wk and measured the C Rhizophagus ...

Host and environmental specificity in bacterial communities associated to two highly invasive marine species (genus Asparagopsis)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
As habitats change due to global and local pressures, population resilience and adaptive processes depend not only on their gene pools but also on their associated bacteria communities.

Metabarcoding reveals unique microbial mat communities and evidence of biogeographic influence in low‐oxygen, high‐sulfur sinkholes and springs

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
Groundwater‐fed underwater sinkholes and springs create habitats with high‐sulfur, low‐oxygen conditions. Multi‐marker metabarcoding was used to describe microbial mat communities in these extreme aquatic habitats. Unique bacterial and diatom communities were found in five springs in Michigan and Florida, with water parameters and biogeography ...

Different fertilization treatments in coal mining-affected soils change bacterial populations and enable soil reclamation

open access: yesAnnals of Microbiology, 2020
Purpose Coal mining activities result in large-scale soil degradation and ecosystem imbalances in many countries. Fertilization is an effective way to improve soil fertility and microbial activity.

Climate change disrupts the seasonal coupling of plant and soil microbial nutrient cycling in an alpine ecosystem

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 3, March 2024.
Seasonal transfers of nutrients between plants and soil microbes are crucial for nutrient retention in alpine ecosystems. Here, we show that two important climate change factors in alpine ecosystems, reduced snow cover and shifts in vegetation, interactively disrupt these seasonal transfers of nutrients.

Microbial players and processes involved in phytoplankton bloom utilization in the water column of a fast‐flowing, river‐dominated estuary

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2017
Fueled by seasonal phytoplankton blooms, the Columbia River estuary is a natural bioreactor for organic matter transformations. Prior metagenome analyses indicated high abundances of diverse Bacteroidetes taxa in estuarine samples containing ...
