"How can you manipulate the microbial community to more broadly affect energy balance?" he asked, enumerating the research questions still to be tackled.
Depth-resolved community fingerprinting revealed a low resistance of the native microbial community to the perturbation induced by the exposure to toluene.
The PRMT analysis suggested that the capacity of the microbial community to degrade or consume key metabolites in nitrogen cycling pathways was affected by hydrocarbon contamination.
Apprill, A. & Rappe, M. S. Response of the microbial community to coral spawning in lagoon and reef flat environments of Hawaii, USA.
Overall, this indicates that acclimation of the C. rubrum-associated microbial community to local conditions is largely regulated by restructuring of an otherwise stable core microbiome.
At the end of the experiment, the short-term response of the active microbial community to a large-scale rain event was assessed with a SIP experiment.
The researchers then used their thriving microbial community to examine how the organisms would interact in a high-carbon dioxide world with more acidic oceans.
The results derived from this study indicate that the FFD is a useful screening tool for optimizing the microbial community to enhance treatment efficiency.
Variation in potential enzyme activities was better accounted for with soil physicochemical characteristics than microbial community composition, suggesting high plasticity of the resident microbial community to environmental conditions.
Interestingly, the ability for the biofilm microbial community to utilize amino acids and amines/amides was positively correlated with tebuconazole removal in all system types.
EIB aims to create optimal biodenitrification conditions through the addition of carbon sources, enabling the autochthonous microbial community to degrade nitrate via different redox pathways.
