B-Vitamin Sharing Promotes Stability of Gut Microbial Communities

Frontiers 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 ...

Syntrophic degradation of fatty acids by methanogenic communities [PDF]

, 2011
In methanogenic environments degradation of fatty acids is a key process in the conversion of organic matter to methane and carbon dioxide. For degradation of fatty acids with three or more carbon atoms syntrophic communities are required.

Characterization and modelling of interspecies electron transfer mechanisms and microbial community dynamics of a syntrophic association [PDF]

, 2013
Syntrophic associations are central to microbial communities and thus have a fundamental role in the global carbon cycle. Despite biochemical approaches describing the physiological activity of these communities, there has been a lack of a mechanistic ...

The Syntrophy Hypothesis for the Origin of Eukaryotes [PDF]

, 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.

Syntrophy between bacteria and archaea enhances methane production in an EGSB bioreactor fed by cheese whey wastewater

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2023
The cheese-making process generates large amounts of cheese whey wastewater (CWW), which is abundant in nutrients but difficult to dispose of, contributing to the eutrophication of natural environments due to inadequate waste management. Here we show the

Methane-Fueled Syntrophy through Extracellular Electron Transfer: Uncovering the Genomic Traits Conserved within Diverse Bacterial Partners of Anaerobic Methanotrophic Archaea

mBio, 2017
The anaerobic oxidation of methane by anaerobic methanotrophic (ANME) archaea in syntrophic partnership with deltaproteobacterial sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) is the primary mechanism for methane removal in ocean sediments.

Syntrophic Growth via Quinone-Mediated Interspecies Electron Transfer

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The mechanisms by which microbial species exchange electrons are of interest because interspecies electron transfer can expand the metabolic capabilities of microbial communities.

A ‘Genome‐First’ Framework for Next‐Generation Bioinputs: From Functional Mining to Rational Synthetic Microbial Communities

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2026.
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.

Stimulatory Effect of Magnetite Nanoparticles on a Highly Enriched Butyrate-Oxidizing Consortium

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Syntrophic oxidation of butyrate is catabolized by a few bacteria specialists in the presence of methanogens. In the present study, a highly enriched butyrate-oxidizing consortium was obtained from a wetland sediment in Tibetan Plateau. During continuous
