Soil Microbiome of Tropical Seasonal and Permanent Small Wetlands. [PDF]
Distinct hydrological regimes shape microbial communities and metabolic pathways in tropical wetlands. Redox‐driven shifts highlight enhanced methanogenesis under anoxia, and dominant archaeal and bacterial groups reflect specific redox conditions and adaptations, with important implications for biogeochemical cycling and climate‐relevant processes ...

Unveiling Global Diversity of Patescibacteriota and Functional Interactions with Host Microbes. [PDF]
Patescibacteriota represents a diverse group of ultra‐small epibiotic bacteria, which is largely overlooked. By integrating ribosomal protein S3‐based community profiling with MAG‐based metabolic potential analyses, this study provides new insights into their distribution, diversity, and potential interactions with other bacteria across diverse ...

Identification and Genomic Characterization of Two Previously Unknown Magnetotactic Nitrospirae [PDF]
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a group of microbes that biomineralize membrane-bound, nanosized magnetite (Fe3O4), and/or greigite (Fe3S4) crystals in intracellular magnetic organelle magnetosomes. MTB belonging to the Nitrospirae phylum can form up to several hundreds of Fe3O4 magnetosome crystals and dozens of sulfur globules in a single cell ...

Microbial community composition of transiently wetted Antarctic Dry Valley soils [PDF]
During the summer months, wet (hyporheic) soils associated with ephemeral streams and lake edges in the Antarctic Dry Valleys (DVs) become hotspots of biological activity and are hypothesized to be an important source of carbon and nitrogen for arid DV ...

Complete nitrification: insights into the ecophysiology of comammox Nitrospira [PDF]
Nitrification, the oxidation of ammonia via nitrite to nitrate, has been considered to be a stepwise process mediated by two distinct functional groups of microorganisms. The identification of complete nitrifying Nitrospira challenged not only the paradigm of labor division in nitrification, it also raises fundamental questions regarding the ...

Genomic profiling ofNitrospiraspecies reveals ecological success of comammoxNitrospira [PDF]
AbstractNitrification was long thought to consist in the stepwise oxidation of ammonia to nitrite and of nitrite to nitrate by ammonia oxidizing and nitrite oxidizing microorganisms, respectively. Recently, single microorganisms capable of complete ammonia to nitrate oxidation (comammox) were identified in theNitrospiragenus.

Microbial community changes induced by Managed Aquifer Recharge activities: linking hydrogeological and biological processes [PDF]
Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) is a technique used worldwide to increase the availability of water resources. We study how MAR modifies microbial ecosystems and its implications for enhancing biodegradation processes to eventually improve groundwater ...
