Long‐Term Impact of the Largest Environmental Disaster in Latin America (Fundão Dam Failure) on Microbial Communities in Lakes of the Doce River Basin, Brazil

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2025.
The collapse of the Fundão dam caused long‐term alterations in the microbiome of lakes in the Doce River basin, with microbial communities closely associated with heavy metals originating from the mining tailings. The findings also highlight potential microbial groups for biomonitoring and bioremediation efforts.

Community structure in methanogenic enrichments provides insight into syntrophic interactions in hydrocarbon-impacted environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The methanogenic biodegradation of crude oil involves the conversion of hydrocarbons to methanogenic substrates by syntrophic bacteria and subsequent methane production by methanogens. Assessing the metabolic roles played by various microbial species in

Anaerobic Digestion Performance and Microbial Community Structures in a Pilot‐Scale Up‐Flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) Treating Distillery Wastewater

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 97, Issue 8, August 2025.
This study demonstrates stable anaerobic treatment of high‐strength distillery wastewater in a pilot‐scale UASB reactor, achieving 86% COD removal and 75% methane yield at an OLR of 10.0 kg COD/m3/d. Microbial analysis highlights the role of syntrophic bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens in enhancing performance under high OLR, offering insights ...

In Situ Metabolic Rates of Alkane‐Degrading Sulphate‐Reducing Bacteria in Hydrocarbon Seep Sediments Revealed by Combining CARD‐FISH, NanoSIMS, and Mathematical Modelling

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2025.
Sulphate‐reducing bacteria affiliated with clades SCA1, SCA2, and LCA2 were investigated using stable‐isotope incubations and in situ analysis at several hydrocarbon seep sites. Extrapolated rates of sulphate reduction and alkane degradation suggest that these clades play an important role at hydrocarbon seeps, contributing substantially to sulphur and

Assessing how disruption of methanogenic communities and their syntrophic relationships in tidal freshwater marshes via saltwater intrusion may affect CH4 emissions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tidal freshwater wetlands (TFW), which lie at the interface of saltwater and freshwater ecosystems, are predicted to experience moderate salinity increases due to sea level rise.

Meta‐Analysis of Production of Volatile Fatty Acids From Waste Streams: Towards Creating Decision Support Tools for Process Optimization

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 97, Issue 7, July 2025.
Meta‐analysis of 107 studies from North America showed a positive correlation between initial substrate concentration and VFA production, followed by temperature and pH. Initial substrate concentration was found to be a reliable predictor for VFA production.

The Syntrophy Hypothesis for the Origin of Eukaryotes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The syntrophy hypothesis proposes an evolutionary pathway for the origin of eukaryotes based primarily on a symbiotic event between methanogenic archaea and facultative fermentative-sulfate reducing δ-protcobacteria (ancestral myxobacteria). The mitochondrial symbiosis is an independent event involving methane-oxidizing α-proteobacteria.

Metabolism and Occurrence of Methanogenic and Sulfate-Reducing Syntrophic Acetate Oxidizing Communities in Haloalkaline Environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Anaerobic syntrophic acetate oxidation (SAO) is a thermodynamically unfavorable process involving a syntrophic acetate oxidizing bacterium (SAOB) that forms interspecies electron carriers (IECs).
