Biotic and abiotic surfaces in marine waters are rapidly colonized by microorganisms.
Surface colonization and subsequent biofilm formation and development provide numerous …

Surfaces immersed in seawater are rapidly colonized by various microorganisms, resulting
in the formation of heterogenic marine biofilms. These communities are known to influence …

Despite advances in sequencing, lack of standardization makes comparisons across studies
challenging and hampers insights into the structure and function of microbial communities …

Microbially induced corrosion (MIC) on concrete represents a serious issue impairing the
lifespan of coastal/marine infrastructure. However, currently developed concrete corrosion …

We are living through exciting times during which we are able to unravel the “microbial dark
matter” in and around us through the application of high‐resolution “meta‐omics” …

A new focus on biofiltration has emerged that aims to shape microbial communities to
improve treatment efficacy. It is therefore necessary to understand the linkages between …

The importance of microbial biofilms has been well‐recognized for several decades, and
focus is now shifting towards investigating multispecies biofilm communities rather than …

The collection of environmental DNA (eDNA) samples is often laborious, costly, and
logistically difficult to accomplish at high frequency in remote locations and over large …

Phototrophic and heterotrophic microorganisms coexist in complex and dynamic structures
called periphyton. These structures shape the biogeochemistry and biodiversity of aquatic …

Genomics and transcriptonomics studies have been the cornerstones of numerous
biological progresses in several decades. Additionally, proteomic studies, especially related …
