From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 17, Issue 8) Peer-ReviewedWhile most productivity on the surface of the Earth today is fueled by oxygenic photosynthesis, for much of Earth history it is thought that anoxygenic photosynthesis-using compounds like ferrous iron or sulfide as...

From:Canadian Journal of Microbiology (Vol. 52, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedAbstract: Within the last 10 years, numerous SSU rRNA sequences have been collected from natural populations of conspicuous, vacuolate, colorless sulfur bacteria, which form a phylogenetically cohesive cluster...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 12, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedThe meromictic Lake Cadagno is characterized by a compact chemocline with high concentrations of anoxygenic phototrophic purple sulfur bacteria (PSB) and green sulfur bacteria (GSB). The co-occurrence of...

From:Science (Vol. 309, Issue 5735) Peer-ReviewedIt is generally reasoned that lethal infections caused by opportunistic pathogens develop permissively by invading a host that is both physiologically stressed and immunologically compromised. However, an alternative...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 12, Issue 8) Peer-ReviewedPlant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are studied in different agricultural crops but the interaction of PGPR of tea crop is not yet studied well. In the present study, the indigenous tea rhizobacteria were...

From:Science (Vol. 304, Issue 5672) Peer-ReviewedCaves are typically formed in limestone deposits, made up primarily of calcium carbonate (CAC[O.sub.3]), and cave formation is driven by carbonic acid dissolution of the carbonate rocks. In the Lower Kane Cave in...

From:Canadian Journal of Microbiology (Vol. 54, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedAbstract: Higher organisms are ubiquitous in surface waters, and some species can proliferate in granular filters of water treatment plants and colonize distribution systems. Meanwhile, some waterborne pathogens are...
-
From:BioScience (Vol. 46, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedThe use of microbial biopesticides such as bacteria, viruses and fungi against disease-causing agents in plants, are governed by several factors. Factors include host specificity, microbial habitat, control of plant...
-
From:Annual Review of Microbiology (Vol. 49) Peer-ReviewedNitroaromatic compounds are released into the biosphere almost exclusively from anthropogenic sources. Some compounds are produced by incomplete combustion of fossil fuels; others are used as synthetic intermediates,...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 16, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedBackground Certain oral bacterial pathogens may play a role in oral carcinogenesis. We assessed the feasibility of conducting a population-based study in India to examine the distributions and levels of Porphyromonas...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 17, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedOrganic fertilizers and especially microbial biomass, also known as microbial fertilizer, can enable a paradigm shift to the conventional fertilizer-to-food chain, particularly when produced on secondary resources....
-
From:Emerging Infectious Diseases (Vol. 9, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedWe report two Australian patients with soft tissue infections due to Photorhabdus species. Recognized as important insect pathogens, Photorhabdus spp. are bioluminescent gram-negative bacilli. Bacteria belonging to the...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 11, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedThe prevalence of lipids devoid of phosphorus suggests that the availability of phosphorus limits microbial growth and activity in many anoxic, stratified environments. To better understand the response of anaerobic...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 17, Issue 10) Peer-ReviewedThe geological record of microbial metabolisms and ecologies primarily consists of stable isotope fractionations and the diagenetic products of biogenic lipids. Carotenoid lipid biomarkers are particularly useful proxies...
