Food fermentation is driven by microorganisms, which usually coexist as multispecies
biofilms. The activities and interactions of functional microorganisms and pathogenic …

The limited information on microbial interactions and metabolic patterns in denitrification
systems, especially those fed with different carbon sources, has hindered the establishment …

The microbial colonization profiles on microplastics (MPs) in marine environments have
recently sparked global interest. However, many studies have characterized plastisphere …

Plastics in the environment provide a new and unique habitat for microorganisms-known as
the plastisphere. The microbial succession within the plastisphere and their potentials for …

The surface and internal tissues of fruits host diverse microbial communities but the
functional role of this microflora, outside of pathogenic species, in fruit health and quality are …

In biofilm-based engineered ecosystems, the reactor performance was closely linked to
interspecies interactions within a biofilm ecosystem, whereas the ecological processes …

Background The ocean microbiota modulates global biogeochemical cycles and changes in
its configuration may have large-scale consequences. Yet, the underlying ecological …

Biofilters inoculated with activated sludge are widely used for odor control in WWTP. In this
process, biofilm community evolution plays an important role in the function of reactor and is …

Mainstream anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) represents one of the most
promising energy-efficient mechanisms of fixed nitrogen elimination from wastewaters …

Temporal variations in microbial metacommunity structure and assembly processes in
response to shifts in environmental conditions are poorly understood. Hence, we conducted …
