Microbial communities in dark oligotrophic volcanic ice cave ecosystems of Mt. Erebus, Antarctica. [PDF]
The Earth's crust hosts a subsurface, dark, and oligotrophic biosphere that is poorly understood in terms of the energy supporting its biomass production and impact on food webs at the Earth's surface.

Stable isotope probing: Technical considerations when resolving ¹⁵N-labeled RNA in gradients [PDF]
RNA based stable isotope probing (SIP) facilitates the detection and identification of active members of microbial populations that are involved in the assimilation of an isotopically labeled compound.

Geographic distribution at subspecies resolution level: closely related Rhodopirellula species in European coastal sediments. [PDF]
Members of the marine genus Rhodopirellula are attached living bacteria and studies based on cultured Rhodopirellula strains suggested that three closely related species R. baltica, 'R. europaea' and 'R.

16S rRNA sequencing reveals likely beneficial core microbes within faecal samples of the EU protected slug Geomalacus maculosus [PDF]
The EU-protected slug Geomalacus maculosus Allman occurs only in the West of Ireland and in northern Spain and Portugal. We explored the microbial community found within the faeces of Irish specimens with a view to determining whether a core microbiome ...

High ultraviolet C resistance of marine Planctomycetes [PDF]
Planctomycetes are bacteria with particular characteristics such as internal membrane systems encompassing intracellular compartments, proteinaceous cell walls, cell division by yeast-like budding and large genomes. These bacteria inhabit a wide range of

Correlation between anammox activity and microscale distribution of nitrite in a subtropical mangrove sediment [PDF]
The distribution of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) in nature has been addressed by only a few environmental studies, and our understanding of how anammox bacteria compete for substrates in natural environments is therefore limited. In this study,

Diffuse flow environments within basalt- and sediment-based hydrothermal vent ecosystems harbor specialized microbial communities [PDF]
Hydrothermal vents differ both in surface input and subsurface geochemistry. The effects of these differences on their microbial communities are not clear.

Quantifying microbial utilization of petroleum hydrocarbons in salt-marsh sediments using the ^(13)C content of bacterial rRNA [PDF]
Natural remediation of oil spills is catalyzed by complex microbial consortia. Here we take a whole-community approach to investigate bacterial incorporation of petroleum hydrocarbons from a simulated oil spill.

Interactions and Community Structure of Fungi and Prokaryotes in Salt and Brackish Marsh Ecosystems
Microbial communities drive biogeochemical cycling in salt and brackish marshes, yet fungal‐prokaryotic interactions remain understudied. This study used 16S and 28S rRNA metabarcoding and network analyses to examine microbial communities in North Inlet salt marsh and Winyah Bay brackish marsh.
