In turn, structural complexity created by these cold-water corals may provide associated organisms with higher attachment points, potentially improving access to food particles, additional living space, or offer protection from predation12.
This low deletion frequency in M. tuberculosis compared to non- M. tuberculosis MTBC members may signify that the absence of this region may provide the organism with a selective advantage in non-human hosts, a hypothesis that is strengthened by the finding that the RD5mic deletion is found in vole, but not human, M. microti isolates [ 32].
Vent sounds will provide researchers with new ways to study flow through sulfide structures, and may provide some local organisms with behavioral or navigational cues.
Therefore while high tissue concentrations of cefazolin with IORA may provide benefit against organisms with high minimum inhibitory concentrations of cefazolin such as coagulase-negative staphylococci [ 55], they would be expected to have less effect on more-sensitive strains such as the MSSA used in our study.
Thus, the inhibition of S. mutans transformation by S. gordonii may provide the latter organism a competitive advantage in plaque where nucleotide precursors are limiting.
Examining comparable paralogous groups among organisms may provide insight into functional and physiological differences among organisms.
The presence of such indicator organisms may provide information regarding water-borne diseases and is a direct threat to human, animal and aquatic organisms.
The occurrence of GFP in these evolutionary distant non-bioluminescent organisms with distinct ecology from cnidarians is intriguing, and characterizing GFP in these organisms may provide insight into additional functions acquired by GFP through evolution.
In other cases, associations may provide advantages to both organisms, particularly those between sponges and crustaceans.
The wide dissemination and abundance of methanotrophs in the environment suggest that these organisms may provide a natural sink for some the CFC replacement compounds.
