Salinity-Mediated Increment in Sulfate Reduction, Biofilm Formation, and Quorum Sensing: A Potential Connection Between Quorum Sensing and Sulfate Reduction? [PDF]
Biocorrosion in marine environment is often associated with biofilms of sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB). However, not much information is available on the mechanism underlying exacerbated rates of SRB-mediated biocorrosion under saline conditions.

Nitrate reduction in sulfate-reducing bacteria [PDF]
Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRBs) gain their energy by coupling the oxidation of organic substrate to the reduction of sulfate to sulfide. Several SRBs are able to use alternative terminal electron acceptors to sulfate such as nitrate. Nitrate-reducing SRBs have been isolated from a diverse range of environments.

Assimilatory sulfate reduction in the marine methanogen Methanothermococcus thermolithotrophicus. [PDF]
Methanothermococcus thermolithotrophicus is the only known methanogen that grows on sulfate as its sole sulfur source, uniquely uniting methanogenesis and sulfate reduction.

Thermodynamic modelling of synthetic communities predicts minimum free energy requirements for sulfate reduction and methanogenesis. [PDF]
Microbial communities are complex dynamical systems harbouring many species interacting together to implement higher-level functions. Among these higher-level functions, conversion of organic matter into simpler building blocks by microbial communities ...

Iron and sulfate reduction structure microbial communities in (sub-)Antarctic sediments. [PDF]
Permanently cold marine sediments are heavily influenced by increased input of iron as a result of accelerated glacial melt, weathering, and erosion.

Microbial sulfate reduction by Desulfovibrio is an important source of hydrogen sulfide from a large swine finishing facility. [PDF]
There is still a lack of understanding of H2S formation in agricultural waste, which leads to poor odour prevention and control. Microbial sulfate reduction is a major process contributing to sulfide formation in natural and technogenic environments with

Sulfate reduction in methanogenic bioreactors [PDF]
In the anaerobic treatment of sulfate-containing wastewater, sulfate reduction interferes with methanogenesis. Both mutualistic and competitive interactions between sulfate-reducing bacteria and methanogenic bacteria have been observed. Sulfate reducers will compete with methanogens for the common substrates hydrogen, formate and acetate.

Geochemical transformations of sulfur in salt lakes (Transbaikalia) [PDF]
The water column in brackish and saline lakes hosts various forms of sulfur including sulfide (hydrosulfide), elemental, thiosulfate, and sulfate sulfur.
