Effects of marine sediment as agricultural substrate on soil microbial diversity: an amplicon sequencing study [PDF]
Background The soil microbiota has a direct impact on plant development and other metabolic systems, such as the degradation of organic matter and the availability of microelements and metabolites. In the context of agricultural soils, microbial activity

Microbial communities on plastic particles in surface waters differ from subsurface waters of the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre [PDF]
The long-term fate of plastics in the ocean and their interactions with marine microorganisms remain poorly understood. In particular, the role of sinking plastic particles as a transport vector for surface microbes towards the deep sea has not been ...

Shift in the rhizosphere microbial communities between growing- and low-temperature dormant seasons in a northern hardwood forest [PDF]
[Background and aims] Microbial communities within the soil surrounding plant roots (rhizosphere) are distinct from those in the non-rhizosphere soil because of root exudation and symbiosis with plant roots and play important roles in plant growth ...

Diversity and Vertical Distribution of Planctomycetota in the Water Column of the Remote North Pacific. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The extensive microbial diversity found in the oceans is becoming to be uncovered despite limited knowledge and cultured representatives for many taxonomic groups. This study analysed the distribution and diversity of Planctomycetota at four water column profiles of

Abstract The Oslofjord subsea road tunnel is a unique environment in which the typically anoxic marine deep subsurface is exposed to oxygen. Concrete biodeterioration and steel corrosion in the tunnel have been linked to the growth of iron- and manganese-oxidizing biofilms in areas of saline water seepage. Surprisingly, previous 16S rRNA

Microbiological Characterization of the Biofilms Colonizing Bioplastics in Natural Marine Conditions: A Comparison between PHBV and PLA [PDF]
Biodegradable polymers offer a potential solution to marine pollution caused by plastic waste. The marine biofilms that formed on the surfaces of poly(lactide acid) (PLA) and poly(3- hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) were studied ...
