Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widespread in marine ecosystems and
originate from natural sources and anthropogenic activities. PAHs enter the marine …

The Zetaproteobacteria are a class of bacteria typically associated with marine Fe (II)-
oxidizing environments. First discovered in the hydrothermal vents at Loihi Seamount …

Here we embark in a deep metagenomic survey that revealed the taxonomic and potential
metabolic pathways aspects of mangrove sediment microbiology. The extraction of DNA …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) represent a group of hazardous compounds that
are ubiquitous and persistent. The main aim of this study was to investigate the degradation …

Mangroves are unique, and endangered, coastal ecosystems that play a vital role in the
tropical and subtropical environments. A comprehensive description of the microbial …

Enriched microbial communities, obtained from environmental samples through selective
processes, can effectively contribute to lignocellulose degradation. Unfortunately, fully …

The biogeography of active microbial communities and the underlying mechanisms in
marine sediments are important in microbial ecology but remain unclear. Here, using qPCR …

Here, we investigated how different plant biomass, and—for one substrate—pH, drive the
composition of degrader microbial consortia. We bred such consortia from forest soil …

Mangroves are complex and dynamic ecosystems highly dependent on diverse microbial
activities. In the last decades, these ecosystems have been exposed to and affected by …

Microbial communities of the Chinese marginal seas have rarely been reported. Here,
bacterial and archaeal community structures and abundance in the surface sediment of four …
