Additives as a Support Structure for Specific Biochemical Activity Boosts in Anaerobic Digestion: A Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2020
Anaerobic digestion is an attractive technology for resource management of organic waste and stubble. The state of biochemical reactions and activities in anaerobic digestion determines the process stability.

Syntrophy between fermentative and purple phototrophic bacteria to treat and valorize carbohydrate-rich wastewaters

open access: yes, 2023
Fermentative chemoorganoheterotrophic bacteria (FCB) and purple photoorganoheterotrophic bacteria (PPB) are two interesting microbial guilds to process carbohydrate-rich wastewaters.

How Thermodynamics Illuminates Population Interactions in Microbial Communities

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
In traditional population models of microbial ecology, there are two central players: producers and consumers (including decomposers that depend on organic carbon).

Elucidating Syntrophic Butyrate-Degrading Populations in Anaerobic Digesters Using Stable-Isotope-Informed Genome-Resolved Metagenomics

open access: yesmSystems, 2019
Linking the genomic content of uncultivated microbes to their metabolic functions remains a critical challenge in microbial ecology. Resolving this challenge has implications for improving our management of key microbial interactions in biotechnologies ...

A 'Genome-First' Framework for Next-Generation Bioinputs: From Functional Mining to Rational Synthetic Microbial Communities. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol
I propose a ‘genome‐first’ framework to collapse the phenotypic bottleneck in bioinput discovery. By integrating multi‐layered genome mining and reverse ecology, this paradigm enables the rational design of stable synthetic microbial communities for a data‐driven and sustainable agricultural bioeconomy.

Electron and Proton Flux for Carbon Dioxide Reduction in Methanosarcina barkeri During Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) is important in diverse methanogenic environments, but how methanogens participate in DIET is poorly understood.

Butyrate Conversion by Sulfate-Reducing and Methanogenic Communities from Anoxic Sediments of Aarhus Bay, Denmark

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
The conventional perception that the zone of sulfate reduction and methanogenesis are separated in high- and low-sulfate-containing marine sediments has recently been changed by studies demonstrating their co-occurrence in sediments.

The Evolution of Microbial Facilitation: Sociogenesis, Symbiogenesis, and Transition in Individuality

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Metabolic cooperation is widespread, and it seems to be a ubiquitous and easily evolvable interaction in the microbial domain. Mutual metabolic cooperation, like syntrophy, is thought to have a crucial role in stabilizing interactions and communities ...

Optimal protein production by a synthetic microbial consortium: Coexistence, distribution of labor, and syntrophy

open access: yes, 2023
International audienceThe bacterium E. coli is widely used to produce recombinant proteins such as growth hormone and insulin. One inconvenience with E. coli cultures is the secretion of acetate through overflow metabolism.

B-Vitamin Sharing Promotes Stability of Gut Microbial Communities

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Cross-feeding on intermediary and end-point metabolites plays an important role in the dynamic interactions of host-associated microbial communities. While gut microbiota possess inherent resilience to perturbation, variations in the intake of certain ...
