Current technologies could identify the abundance and functions of specific microbes, and evaluate their individual effects on microbial ecology. However, these microbes interact with each other, as ...
In paddy field, flood-and-drain cycles produce variations in reduced and oxidized environments, which are appropriate habitats for a wide variety of microorganisms. Nitrogen (N) fertilization drives ...
Soils release approximately 40–60 petagrams (Pg) of carbon annually into the atmosphere through microbial metabolism. Climate warming is projected to further enhance soil microbial respiration, ...
Microbial communities are comprised of complex assemblages of highly interactive taxa. We employed network analyses to identify and describe microbial interactions and co-occurrence patterns between ...
The holobiont paradigm finally recognizes that macroorganism development and health, like all other natural ecosystems, are influenced by the diverse microbial communities they host. However, ...
Using metagenomic sequencing across a realistic temperature gradient, researchers show that carcass decay triggers a surge in carbon-degradation ...
The role of microbiological analysis of bile from patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is unclear. Although the majority of such patients have positive cultures, ...
