Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Modern methods in subsurface microbiology: in situ identification of microorganisms with nucleic acid probes [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Reviews, 1997
Like many other parts of microbial ecology, subsurface microbiology has entered the molecular age. As one example of various powerful molecular techniques, fluorescently labeled rRNA-targeted nucleic acid probes today allow an in situ identification of individual microbial cells in their natural habitats.

Identification and Removal of Contaminant Sequences From Ribosomal Gene Databases: Lessons From the Census of Deep Life

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Earth’s subsurface environment is one of the largest, yet least studied, biomes on Earth, and many questions remain regarding what microorganisms are indigenous to the subsurface. Through the activity of the Census of Deep Life (CoDL) and the Deep Carbon

Microbial Residents of the Atlantis Massif’s Shallow Serpentinite Subsurface

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2019
The International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 357—“Serpentinization and Life”—utilized seabed drills to collect rocks from the oceanic crust. The recovered rock cores represent the shallow serpentinite subsurface of the Atlantis Massif, where ...

Use of the oral microbiota as screening test to identify children at risk for caries development. A systematic review of longitudinal studies

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated trends in oral microbiota composition (index test) that could indicate potential candidates to identify children at risk for dental caries development compared with visual/tactile examination (reference test). MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, Lilacs, SciELO, and Google Scholar databases were searched up ...

Enrichment and Genomic Characterization of a N2O-Reducing Chemolithoautotroph From a Deep-Sea Hydrothermal Vent

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2018
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a greenhouse gas and also leads to stratospheric ozone depletion. In natural environments, only a single N2O sink process is the microbial reduction of N2O to N2, which is mediated by nitrous oxide reductase (NosZ) encoded by nosZ ...
