A new study published today in The ISME (International Society for Microbial Ecology) Journal marks the first time scientists ...

The subterranean environment of caves presents a unique laboratory for studying microbial ecology. In these isolated, oligotrophic habitats, microorganisms engage in diverse metabolic processes and ...

Microbial Ecology, Vol. 74, No. 1 (July 2017), pp. 89-105 (17 pages) Semi-arid and arid areas occupy about 33% of terrestrial ecosystems. However, little information is available about microbial ...

Microbial ecology is the study of microbes in the environment, their roles in ecosystem processes, and their interactions with one another and other biota. In this course, the Mountain Research ...

A flagship seven-year study that explores how environmental stresses influence different ecological processes shaping the composition and structure of microbial communities in groundwater has now been ...

I am a microbiologist, and my studies have focused on “Microbial Ecology” using the combination of classical techniques (qPCR, amplicon sequence, isotopes), state-of-the-art omics (metagenomics, ...

Pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, is one of the greatest threats to pine trees and is spreading all over the world. During the nematode’s pathogenesis, plant microorganisms play important ...

Researchers discovered that soil microbes in Kansas carry drought “memories” that affect how plants grow and survive. Native plants showed stronger responses to these microbial legacies than crops ...

A study of microbiome structure and function associated with plants roots will be presented. the study showed that the microbiome structure is determined by the plant type, with root microbiome is ...

An international team of researchers in Zurich and Oxford have identified a promising strategy to combat harmful bacteria in the gut using a combination of oral vaccines and microbiome-based ...
