Structure and Diversity of Soil Bacterial Communities in Offshore Islands [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractThe effects of biogeographical separation and parent material differences in soil bacterial structure and diversity in offshore islands remain poorly understood. In the current study, we used next-generation sequencing to characterize the differences in soil bacterial communities in five offshore subtropical granite islands (Matsu Islets, MI ...

DIVERSITY OF CULTURABLE BACTERIAL COMMUNITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE CORAL Galaxea fascicularis FROM UJUNG KULON, INDONESIA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Coral reefs are the most diverse marine ecosystems; however, little is known about their microbialdiversity in these ecosystems. The present study is aimed at investigating the general insights into the diversity of the bacterial community associated ...

Responses of Soil Bacterial Diversity to Fertilization are Driven by Local Environmental Context Across China

open access: yesEngineering, 2022
Soil microbial diversity is extremely vulnerable to fertilization, which is one of the main anthropogenic activities associated with global changes.

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Maize Endophytic Bacterial Diversity as Affected by Soil Cultivation History [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The bacterial endophytic communities residing within roots of maize (Zea mays L.) plants cultivated by a sustainable management in soils from the Quechua maize belt (Peruvian Andes) were examined using tags pyrosequencing spanning the V4 and V5 hypervariable regions of the 16S rRNA.

Effects of Urban–Rural Environmental Gradient on Soil Microbial Community in Rapidly Urbanizing Area

open access: yesEcosystem Health and Sustainability, 2023
Rapid urbanization considerably changes the urban–rural landscape, soil environment, and soil ecosystem functions. Within terrestrial ecosystems, microorganisms play key roles in soil ecosystem functions and are highly vulnerable to the effects of rapid ...

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.

Plant Diversity and Fungal Richness Regulate the Changes in Soil Multifunctionality in a Semi-Arid Grassland

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Loss in plant diversity is expected to impact biodiversity and ecosystem functioning (BEF) in terrestrial ecosystems. Soil microbes play essential roles in regulating ecosystem functions.

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...

Influence of soil properties on archaeal diversity and distribution in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Archaea are the least understood members of the microbial community in Antarctic mineral soils. Although their occurrence in Antarctic coastal soils has been previously documented, little is known about their distribution in soils across the McMurdo Dry ...
