Plasmid Transfer in the Ocean – A Case Study from the Roseobacter Group
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Plasmid mediated horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has been speculated to be one of the prime mechanisms for the adaptation of roseobacters (Rhodobacteraceae) to their ecological niches in the marine habitat.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Fungal modular polyketide synthases (PKSs) remain largely unexplored. Functional characterization of the LasC/LasD assembly line established its role in strasseriolide C biosynthesis and suggested an unexpected strategy for chain initiation, in which a malonyl unit is transferred from the module 2 acyl carrier protein (ACP) domains to the loading ACP ...

Tintinnid ciliates of Amundsen Sea (Antarctica) plankton communities [PDF]
Polar Research, 2013 The Amundsen Sea has been described as one of the most productive and dynamic pelagic systems in Antarctica and is one of the least studied. Based on samples from 15 stations in the Amundsen Sea, we describe for the first time the composition of the ...

Els grans depredadors de l'oceà, els protists [PDF]
, 2020 “El que tenim aquí és una màquina perfecta. Una màquina devoradora. En realitat, és un miracle de l'evolució. L'únic que fa aquesta màquina és nedar i menjar i fer tauronets i això és tot.” Així descrivia l’oceanògraf Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) el ...

Trends in Plant Science, 2019 The rhizosphere microbiome is a central determinant of plant performance. Microbiome assembly has traditionally been investigated from a bottom-up perspective, assessing how resources such as root exudates drive microbiome assembly. However, the importance of predation as a driver of microbiome structure has to date largely remained overlooked. Here we
