From:The Western Journal of Medicine (Vol. 161, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedVibrio cholerae has been long recognized as a human pathogen, but only in recent years has the pathogenicity of other Vibrionaceae been recognized. Eleven species of Vibrio are now known to be capable of causing serious...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 8, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Carsten Paul, Georg Pohnert * Introduction Diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) comprise an abundant group of unicellular microalgae distributed worldwide in marine and freshwater habitats. These algae play a...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 13, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedWater-borne bacteria, found in cold water storage tanks, are causative agents for various human infections and diseases including Legionnaires' disease. Consequently, regular microbiological monitoring of tank water is...

From:Science (Vol. 307, Issue 5714) Peer-ReviewedDeep-sea life requires adaptation to high pressure, an extreme yet common condition given that oceans cover 70% of Earth's surface and have an average depth of 3800 meters. Survival at such depths requires specific...

From:Science (Vol. 246, Issue 4926) Peer-ReviewedSymbiotic Marine Bacteria Chemically Defend Crustacean Embryos from a Pathogenic Fungus THE PRODUCTION OF SECONDARY metabolites, or allelochemicals [1], by microbes is thought to be an important adaptation allowing...
-
From:BioMed Research InternationalPeer-ReviewedGlutaredoxins (Grxs) are small ubiquitous redox enzymes that catalyze glutathione-dependent reactions to reduce protein disulfide. In this study, a full-length Grx gene (PsGrx) with 270 nucleotides was isolated from...

From:Science (Vol. 289, Issue 5486) Peer-ReviewedTwo groups of researchers have identified large populations of bacteria that convert sunlight hitting the sea surface into energy Two scientific teams have found an entirely unexpected phenomenon: new kinds of ocean...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 13, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedThe meromictic Lake Cadagno is characterized by a compact chemocline with high concentrations of anoxygenic phototrophic purple and green sulfur bacteria. However, a complete picture of the bacterial diversity, and in...

From:BioMed Research International (Vol. 2021) Peer-ReviewedAmylase producing actinobacteria were isolated and characterized from terrestrial environment. There are a limited number of reports investigating the marine environment; hence, in the present study, four marine enzymes...

From:Science (Vol. 281, Issue 5374) Peer-ReviewedNext to [N.sub.2] gas, the largest pool of reduced nitrogen in the ocean resides in the enormous reservoir of dissolved organic nitrogen (DON). The chemical identity of most of this material and the mechanisms by which...

From:Science (Vol. 307, Issue 5715) Peer-ReviewedUlva (sea lettuce) and Enteromorpha (gut weed) are cosmopolitan, intertidal marine algae that display a foliaceous morphology in their natural environment. However, these green macroalgae lose their natural morphology...
-
From:Nature (Vol. 505, Issue 7483) Peer-ReviewedThe most abundant photosynthetic bacterium in the oceans casts off many minute pieces of itself every day, amounting collectively to tonnes of material that potentially influences the global carbon cycle. Many...

From:Oceanus (Vol. 49, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedIron is a valuable commodity in the ocean. It's an essential nutrient for living things, but it's scarce in the sea. To solve this supply-and-demand problem, a key bacterium at the base of the ocean food chain has...

From:Diabetes Forecast (Vol. 52, Issue 11)This experiment will tell you whether or not a jar of water has bacteria. 1. Wash the first set of containers well and dry them so you don't mix your water sample with dirt or water already in the container. 2....

From:The Biological Bulletin (Vol. 193, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedSecondary metabolite production was induced in marine bacteria under nutrient-limited conditions. Metabolite extracts were tested for antimicrobial activity using thin layer chromatography. The bacterium J292/97 produced...
-
From:Nature (Vol. 457, Issue 7229) Peer-ReviewedCoastal waters support ~90 per cent of global fisheries and are therefore an important food reserve for our planet (1). Eutrophication of these waters, due to human activity, leads to severe oxygen depletion and the...
-
From:Canadian Journal of Microbiology (Vol. 55, Issue 9) Peer-ReviewedThe alginate lyase encoding gene (alyPI) of marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. CY24 was cloned using a battery of PCR techniques. Gene alyPI was composed of a 1575 bp open reading frame encoding a protein of 57.4...
-
From:Nature Biotechnology (Vol. 29, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedRecent reports underscore the role that bacteria play in the aftermath of the oil well blowout in the Gulf as researchers found that indigenous bacteria (presumably) cleared methane released from the site faster than...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 16, Issue 8) Peer-ReviewedWhy, contrary to theoretical predictions, do marine microbe communities harbor tremendous phenotypic heterogeneity? How can so many marine microbe species competing in the same niche coexist? We discovered a unifying...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 15, Issue 10) Peer-ReviewedMost literature exploring the biological effects of ocean acidification (OA) has focused on macroscopic organisms and far less is known about how marine microbial communities will respond. Studies of OA and microbial...
