Proliferation of purple sulphur bacteria at the sediment surface affects intertidal mat diversity and functionality. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 There is a relative absence of studies dealing with mats of purple sulphur bacteria in the intertidal zone. These bacteria display an array of metabolic pathways that allow them to disperse and develop under a wide variety of conditions, making these ...

Detection of Purple Sulfur Bacteria in Purple and Non-purple Dairy Wastewaters [PDF]
Journal of Environmental Quality, 2015 The presence of purple bacteria in manure storage lagoons is often associated with reduced odors. In this study, our objectives were to determine the occurrence of purple sulfur bacteria (PSB) in seven dairy wastewater lagoons and to identify possible linkages between wastewater properties and purple blooms.
