The dominating bacterial phyla were the same along the whole profile but their relative abundance changed.
Alcanivorax borkumensis is a hydrocarbon degrading bacterium found to dominate bacterial communities in marine regions containing high levels of hydrocarbons.
As its name suggests, Ca. Pelagibacter ubique's genome, transcriptome, and proteome regularly dominate bacterial surveys throughout the pelagic environment.
Hydrolytic bacteria and aceticlastic methanogens dominated bacterial and archaea communities, respectively, in both high and low LCFA concentration digesters.
Six major colonies with carbonate precipitation capacity dominated bacterial community structure cultivated in heterotrophic platable bacteria medium.
Therefore, a new medium was designed which corresponded largely to the chemical composition of the mine water in a treatment plant dominated by the bacterial groups mentioned and was called artificial pilot-plant water (APPW).
This result is consistent with what has been recently found in studies of human obesity (Cotillard et al., 2013; Le Chatelier et al., 2013), in which low species-richness individuals were found to have more pronounced inflammation, and to be dominated by Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria, the same bacterial groups that dominated the 'inflamed' mouse enterotype.
Based on our predictions, we found that the pelagic station (Tb01) DCM (Deep Chlorophyll Maximum) depth (at all sampling dates) was dominated by one bacterial group (LL- Prochlorococcus), while viral sequences belonged to two groups (i.e., Prochlorococcus- and Synechococcus-like) (Fig. 5 and Table 3).
From birth to adulthood, the gut microbiota matures from a simple community dominated by a few major bacterial groups into a highly diverse ecosystem that provides both benefits and challenges to the host.
Over time, our gut microbiota matures from a simple community dominated by a few major bacterial groups into a highly diverse adult microbiota (for a review, see ref. 2).
