Herbaceous Legume Encroachment Reduces Grass Productivity and Density in Arid Rangelands [PDF]
Worldwide savannas and arid grasslands are mainly used for livestock grazing, providing livelihood to over a billion people. While normally dominated by perennial C-4 grasses, these rangelands are increasingly affected by the massive spread of native ...

Cross-Feeding of a Toxic Metabolite in a Synthetic Lignocellulose-Degrading Microbial Community
The recalcitrance of complex organic polymers such as lignocellulose is one of the major obstacles to sustainable energy production from plant biomass, and the generation of toxic intermediates can negatively impact the efficiency of microbial ...

Strategies and challenges with the microbial conversion of methanol to high-value chemicals [PDF]
As alternatives to traditional fermentation substrates, methanol (CH3OH), carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) represent promising one-carbon (C1) sources that are readily available at low-cost and share similar metabolic pathway. Of these C1 compounds,

We integrated taxonomic with functional gene analysis, which enabled to shed light not only on community compositions but also on long‐term eco‐physiological adaptations and ecosystem functioning. Various genes coding enzymes responsible for biomass degradation, carbon metabolism, and adaptation to environmental stress were identified and traced over ...

Adaptive genetic traits in pelagic freshwater microbes
Abstract Pelagic microbes have adopted distinct strategies to inhabit the pelagial of lakes and oceans and can be broadly categorized in two groups: free‐living, specialized oligotrophs and patch‐associated generalists or copiotrophs. In this review, we aim to identify genomic traits that enable pelagic freshwater microbes to thrive in their habitat ...
