Biochemical and structural characterization of chlorite dismutase enzyme from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [PDF]
Chlorite dismutase (Cld) is a heme b oxidoreductase that can decompose chlorite (ClO2− or OClO−) into harmless chloride (Cl−) and dioxygen (O2) with high turnover rates. Cld was found to be involved in different biological processes, and the rare reaction it catalyzes makes it a prominent enzyme for different applications.

Lack of Distinction Between Nitrobacter agilis and Nitrobacter winogradskyi [PDF]
No adequate criteria were established to distinguish between Nitrobacter agilis and N. winogradskyi . However, very gentle preparative techniques permitted demonstration of flagella in N. agilis .

Comparative studies on membrane proteins of Nitrobacter hamburgensis and Nitrobacter winogradskyi [PDF]
The inner membranes (i.e. cytoplasmic and intracytoplasmic membranes, IM) of autotrophically, mixotrophically, and heterotrophically grown cells of Nitrobacter hamburgensis were characterized with respect to their nitrite oxidase activity, density, and protein pattern as revealed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.

Comparative Three-Barcode Phylogenetics and Soil Microbiomes of Planted and Wild <i>Arbutus</i> Strawberry Trees. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Taxonomic identification of closely related plants can be challenging due to convergent evolution, hybridization, and overlapping geographic distribution. To derive taxonomic relationships among planted and wild Arbutus plants across a large geographic range, we complemented three standard plastid barcodes rbcL, matK, and trnH‐psbA with soil ...

Energy conservation in Nitrobacter [PDF]
The generation of ATP and NADH in total cells of Nitrobacter was measured under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. NADH synthesis was driven by an ATP independent reaction with nitrite or nitric oxide as electron donors. The rate of NADH formation was about 200 times higher, if nitric oxide instead of nitrite served as electron donor.

Autotrophic nitrification is regulated by canonical ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB). To date, most studies have focused on the role of canonical ammonia oxidizers in nitrification while neglecting ...

Effect of the dilution rate on microbial competition: r-strategist can win over k-strategist at low substrate concentration. [PDF]
The conditions present in both in vitro and in vivo ecosystems determine the microbial population harbouring it. One commonly accepted theory is that a species with a high substrate affinity and low growth rate (k-strategist) will win the competition ...

Effect of Soil Properties Modifier on Physiological Responses of Lycium depressum Stocks to Drought Stress [PDF]
IntroductionThe aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of soil conditioners on physiological responses (stomatal resistance, leaf temperature, chlorophyll, percentage of root colonization, carotenoids, proline) of Lycium depressum Stocks ...
