Methanotrophic microorganisms utilize methane as an electron donor and a carbon source.
To date, the capacity to oxidize methane is restricted to microorganisms from three bacterial …

Methylmercury is a potent bioaccumulating neurotoxin that is produced by specific
microorganisms that methylate inorganic mercury. Methylmercury production in diverse …

Reconstruction of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) has become a fundamental
approach in microbial ecology. However, a MAG is hardly complete and overlooks genomic …

Composition and diversity in gut microbiota are impacted by a wide variety of factors. The
similarity of gut microbiota in related or sympatric species has been gaining recent traction …

Bacteria of the phylum Verrucomicrobia are prevalent and are particularly common in soil
and freshwater environments. Their cosmopolitan distribution and reported capacity for …

Microorganisms that degrade cellulose utilize extracellular reactions that yield free by-
products which can promote interactions with noncellulolytic organisms. We hypothesized …

Despite advances regarding the microbial and organic-molecular impact on nucleation, the
formation of dolomite in sedimentary environments is still incompletely understood. Since …

Extracellular electron transfer (EET) by electroactive bacteria in anoxic soils and sediments
is an intensively researched subject, but EET's function in planktonic ecology has been less …

Lakes are highly heterogenous ecosystems inhabited by a rich microbiome whose genomic
diversity remains poorly defined compared to other major biomes. Here, we present a …

Therapeutic values of therapeutical peats have been appreciated for centuries. Although
microbiological criteria for therapeutical peats used in therapies exists in Poland, this source …
