Field trials with the genetic modified (GM) maize stacked hybrid NK603 × MON810 performed in two different locations in the Czech Republic were used for evaluation of genetic diversity of rhizosphere bacterial communities using the terminal restriction ...

Retrotransposon silencing by DNA methylation can drive mammalian genomic imprinting [PDF]
Among mammals, only eutherians and marsupials are viviparous and have genomic imprinting that leads to parent-of-origin-specific differential gene expression. We used comparative analysis to investigate the origin of genomic imprinting in mammals. PEG10 (

Nitrogen removal and ammonia-oxidising bacteria in a vertical flow constructed wetland treating inorganic wastewater [PDF]
Nitrogen removal performance and the ammonia-oxidising bacterial (AOB) community were assessed in the batch loaded 1.3ha saturated surface vertical flow wetland at CSBP Ltd, a fertiliser and chemical manufacturer located in Kwinana, Western Australia ...

Effect of a Profound Feedstock Change on the Structure and Performance of Biogas Microbiomes
In this study the response of biogas-producing microbiomes to a profound feedstock change was investigated. The microbiomes were adapted to the digestion of either 100% sugar beet, maize silage, or of the silages with elevated amounts of total ammonium ...

Co-Selection of Bacterial Metal and Antibiotic Resistance in Soil Laboratory Microcosms
Accumulation of heavy metals (HMs) in agricultural soil following the application of superphosphate fertilisers seems to induce resistance of soil bacteria to HMs and appears to co-select for resistance to antibiotics (Ab).

Increased variability of microbial communities in restored salt marshes nearly 30 years after tidal flow restoration [PDF]
We analyzed microbial diversity and community composition from four salt marsh sites that were impounded for 40–50 years and subsequently restored and four unimpounded sites in southeastern Connecticut over one growing season.

Directed terminal restriction analysis tool (DRAT): an aid to enzyme selection for directed terminal‐restriction fragment length polymorphisms [PDF]
Summary1. T‐RFLP is an established tool for high‐throughput studies of microbial communities, which can, with care and practical validation, be enhanced to aid identification of specific organisms in a community by associating T‐RFs from experimental runs with predicted T‐RFs from a set of existing sequences. A barrier to this approach is the laborious
