A hot origin of dissimilatory sulfite reduction catalyzed by DsrAB in the Paleoarchean Era
mLife, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 108-121, February 2026.Abstract Dissimilatory sulfite reduction (DSR) has been essential to microbial energy metabolism in the biogeochemical sulfur cycle since the Paleoarchean Era. However, due to the lack of an integrated assessment of geological record and genomic data, the evolutionary origin of DSR remains elusive in terms of time, habitat, and genetic basis.

PLoS ONE, 2015 To find environmental variables (EVs) shaping the ecological niche of the archaeal phylum Thaumarchaeota in terrestrial environments, we determined the abundance of Thaumarchaeota in various soil samples using real-time PCR targeting thaumarchaeotal 16S ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Microbial processes such as nitrification and anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) are important for nitrogen cycling in marine sediments. Seasonal variations of archaeal and bacterial ammonia oxidizers (AOA and AOB) and anammox bacteria, as well as ...

Seasonal Changes in Marine Archaeal Tetraether Lipid Export Depth Linked to Net Primary Productivity
Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Marine ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA) produce isoprenoid glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) which form the basis of seawater temperature proxy TEX86. Although most studies use TEX86 for sea surface temperature (SST) reconstructions, maximum GDGT production occurs at and below the nitracline. Moreover, sedimentary GDGT‐2/GDGT‐3

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Marine Thaumarchaeota (formerly known as the marine group I archaea) have received much research interest in recent years since these chemolithoautotrophic organisms are abundant in the subsurface ocean and oxidize ammonium to nitrite, which makes them a

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 The majority of caves are formed within limestone rock and hence our understanding of cave microbiology comes from carbonate-buffered systems. In this paper, we describe the microbial diversity of Roraima Sur Cave, an orthoquartzite (SiO4) cave within ...

Meta-analysis reveals ammonia-oxidizing bacteria respond more strongly to nitrogen addition than ammonia-oxidizing archaea [PDF]
, 2016 Shifts in microbial communities driven by anthropogenic nitrogen (N) addition have broad-scale ecological consequences. However, responses of microbial groups to exogenous N supply vary considerably across studies, hindering efforts to predict community ...

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.This mini‐review synthesises evidence on the taxonomic patterns of airborne microorganisms and the selective pressures they face. We highlight key conserved physiological traits, such as DNA repair and desiccation tolerance, which enable stress‐tolerant members to survive and suggest their potential for activity within the atmospheric environment ...
