Exploring virus-host-environment interactions in a chemotrophic-based underground estuaryEnvironmental Microbiome - Tập 19 - Trang 1-13 - 2024

Viruses play important roles in modulating microbial communities and influencing
global biogeochemistry. There is now growing interest in characterising their
ecological roles across diverse biomes. However, little is known about viral
ecology in low-nutrient, chemotrophic-based environments. In such ecosystems,
virus-driven manipulation of nutrient cycles might have profound impacts across

Metapangenomics of wild and cultivated banana microbiome reveals a plethora of host-associated protective functionsEnvironmental Microbiome - Tập 18 Số 1
Simrandeep Singh, Shiva Abdollahi Aghdam, Rachel M. Lahowetz, Amanda M. V. Brown
Abstract Background Microbiomes are critical to plants, promoting growth,
elevating stress tolerance, and expanding the plant’s metabolic repertoire with
novel defense pathways. However, generally microbiomes within plant tissues,
which intimately interact with their hosts, remain poorly characterized. These
endospheres have become a focus in banana (Musa spp.)—an important plant for
study of micr... hiện toàn bộ
Metagenomic assembly reveals hosts and mobility of common antibiotic resistome in animal manure and commercial compostEnvironmental Microbiome - Tập 17 - Trang 1-15 - 2022

Antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) used in intensive animal
farming threaten human health worldwide; however, the common resistome, ARG
mobility, and ARG host composition in different animal manures and mixed manure
composts remain unclear. In the present study, metagenomic assembly and
cross-sample mapping were used to comprehensively decipher the common resistome
and its potentia... hiện toàn bộ
Wallace’s line structures seagrass microbiota and is a potential barrier to the dispersal of marine bacteriaEnvironmental Microbiome - Tập 19 Số 1

Abstract Background The processes that shape microbial biogeography are not well
understood, and concepts that apply to macroorganisms, like dispersal barriers,
may not affect microorganisms in the same predictable ways. To better understand
how known macro-scale biogeographic processes can be applied at micro-scales, we
examined seagrass associated microbiota on either side of Wallace’s line to

Coupled DNA-labeling and sequencing approach enables the detection of viable-but-non-culturable Vibrio spp. in irrigation water sources in the Chesapeake Bay watershedEnvironmental Microbiome - Tập 16 - Trang 1-13 - 2021
Leena Malayil, Suhana Chattopadhyay, Emmanuel F. Mongodin, Amy R. Sapkota
Nontraditional irrigation water sources (e.g., recycled water, brackish water)
may harbor human pathogens, including Vibrio spp., that could be present in a
viable-but-nonculturable (VBNC) state, stymieing current culture-based detection
methods. To overcome this challenge, we coupled 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU)
labeling, enrichment techniques, and 16S rRNA sequencing to identify

Co-occurrence of planktonic bacteria and archaea affects their biogeographic patterns in China’s coastal wetlandsEnvironmental Microbiome - Tập 16 - Trang 1-12 - 2021
Baoli Wang, Na Liu, Meiling Yang, Lijia Wang, Xia Liang, Cong-Qiang Liu
Planktonic bacteria and archaea play a key role in maintaining ecological
functions in aquatic ecosystems; however, their biogeographic patterns and
underlying mechanisms have not been well known in coastal wetlands including
multiple types and at a large space scale. Therefore, planktonic bacteria and
archaea and related environmental factors were investigated in twenty-one
wetlands along China’s... hiện toàn bộ
The Arabidopsis holobiont: a (re)source of insights to understand the amazing world of plant–microbe interactionsEnvironmental Microbiome - Tập 18 - Trang 1-26 - 2023
M. J. Poupin, T. Ledger, R. Roselló-Móra, B. González
As holobiont, a plant is intrinsically connected to its microbiomes. However,
some characteristics of these microbiomes, such as their taxonomic composition,
biological and evolutionary role, and especially the drivers that shape them,
are not entirely elucidated. Reports on the microbiota of Arabidopsis thaliana
first appeared more than ten years ago. However, there is still a lack of a

Alternative approaches to identify core bacteria in Fucus distichus microbiome and assess their distribution and host-specificityEnvironmental Microbiome - Tập 17 Số 1 - Trang 1-15 - 2022
Park, Jungsoo, Davis, Katherine, Lajoie, Geneviève, Parfrey, Laura Wegener
Identifying meaningful ecological associations between host and components of
the microbiome is challenging. This is especially true for hosts such as marine
macroalgae where the taxonomic composition of the microbiome is highly diverse
and variable in space and time. Identifying core taxa is one way forward but
there are many methods and thresholds in use. This study leverages a large
dataset of ... hiện toàn bộ
Land use modification causes slow, but predictable, change in soil microbial community composition and functional potentialEnvironmental Microbiome - Tập 18 - Trang 1-16 - 2023
Z. Louisson, S. M. Hermans, H. L. Buckley, B. S. Case, M. Taylor, F. Curran-Cournane, G. Lear
Bacterial communities are critical to ecosystem functioning and sensitive to
their surrounding physiochemical environment. However, the impact of land use
change on microbial communities remains understudied. We used 16S rRNA gene
amplicon sequencing and shotgun metagenomics to assess soil microbial
communities' taxonomic and functional responses to land use change. We compared
data from long-term... hiện toàn bộ
