Spatial Stratification of Soil Bacterial Populations in Aggregates of Diverse Soils
Microbial Ecology, 2006Most soil microbial community studies to date have focused on homogenized bulk soil samples. However, it is likely that many important microbial processes occur in spatially segregated microenvironments in the soil leading to a microscale biogeography. This study attempts to localize specific microbial populations to different fractions or compartments

Characterization of the bacterial archaeal diversity in hydrocarbon-contaminated soil
Science of The Total Environment, 2012A polyphasic approach combining culture-based methods with molecular methods is useful to expand knowledge on microbial diversity in contaminated soil. Microbial diversity was examined in soil samples from a former industrial site in the European Alps (mainly used for aluminum production and heavily contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons) by culture ...

The Diversity of Bacterial Communities in Urban Soils
Eurasian Soil Science, 2018Urbanozems (Urbic Technosols) contaminated by heavy metals and polychlorbiphenyls (Urbic Technosols Toxic) and intruzems (Urbic Technosols Toxic) were studied in Moscow; additionally, we studied recreazems (Urbic Technosols Thaptohumic) and culturozems (Urbic Technosols Pantohumic) on the territory of the Botanical Garden of Moscow State University ...

Bacterial diversity in soils around a lead and zinc mine
Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2007Five samples of soil collected from a lead and zinc mine were used to assess the effect of combined contamination of heavy metals on soil bacterial communities using a polyphasic approach including characterization of isolates by culture method, community level catabolic profiling in BIOLOG GN microplates, and genetic community fingerprinting by ...

Bacterial Community Diversity in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest Soils
Microbial Ecology, 2010The aim of this study was to characterize the bacterial community diversity of the Brazilian Atlantic forest soil by means of both cultivation and 16S rRNA clone libraries. A collection of 86 representative isolates, obtained from six samples of Atlantic forest soils from the National Park of Serra dos Órgãos (PARNASO), belonged to the genera ...

Bacterial Diversity of the Soil of the Polar Tundra of Russia
Paleontological Journal, 2020This review summarizes the results of the study of bacterial communities of seasonally thawed soil horizons in the polar tundra of Russia. It has been shown that the representatives of different physiological groups of microorganisms developing in the soils of this extremely cold habitat are involved in the global biological cycle of carbon.

Metals Affect Soil Bacterial and Fungal Functional Diversity Differently
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2007Abstract Heavy metals can cause a decrease in the taxonomic diversity of soil communities. Because of functional redundancy, it remains unclear to what extent different functions performed by the soil microbial communities may be affected by pollution.

Soil bacterial functional diversity in a potato field
European Journal of Soil Biology, 2001Abstract Nutrient availability of plants varies according to different processes governed by soil biota. In agroecosystems, human intervention may affect soil biota and therefore it has a crucial impact on system productivity and its maintenance. Based on the above information, we assumed that sequencing bacterial functional diversity in agrosystems ...

Bacterial diversity of Serbian agriculural soils
The diversity and abundance of rhizosphere microbiota significantly influence plant growth. Interactions within this microbiota, as well as with plants, are complex and varied, ranging from beneficial to harmful. Despite increasing research on these plant-microbe relationships, much remains unknown.Gavrilović, Bojana +4 more
