IMPROVING GLOBAL CARBON CYCLE MODELS WITH OBSERVATIONS
(2014-05)
In the future warming world terrestrial ecosystems may mitigate increasing temperatures by sequestering CO₂ from the atmosphere, or they can intensify future global change, amplifying the rate of CO₂ production in response ...
Enzymes involved in energy conservation via substrate-level phosphorylation in the syntrophic benzoate degrader, Syntrophus aciditrophicus
(2014-05)
Syntrophus aciditrophicus (SB) degrades benzoate, cyclohexane-1-carboxylate and certain fatty acids in syntrophic association with hydrogen/formate-using microorganisms and ferments crotonate in pure culture. ATP formation ...
Polyphasic Taxonomy: A Tool to Identify and Characterize Members of Complex Microbial Communities
(2014-12)
Systematics is a fundamental discipline that underpins the science of microbiology, providing a framework that allows for the identification, classification, taxonomy, and nomenclature of single cell organisms. Since the ...
METAGENOMIC INSIGHTS INTO MICROBIAL COMMUNITY RESPONSES TO LONG-TERM ELEVATED CO2
(2014)
Understanding how belowground microbial communities respond to increasing atmospheric CO2 is of crucial importance for global change biology, microbial ecology and predictive biology. However, our understanding of CO2 ...
ENHANCING ALCOHOL PRODUCTION IN CLOSTRIDIUM CARBOXIDIVORANS STRAIN P7T AND THE ROLE OF TANDEM ADH GENES
(2014)
Clostridium carboxidivorans P7 is one of three microbial catalysts capable of fermenting synthesis gas (mainly CO, CO2 and H2) to produce the liquid biofuels ethanol and butanol. Gasification of feedstocks to produce ...
MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF THE ARABIDOPSIS NUCLEAR FACTOR-Y TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR FAMILY
(2014-05-09)
NUCLEAR FACTOR-Y (NF-Y) transcription factors, composed of three independent families: NF-YA, NF-YB, and NF-YC, have greatly expanded in plants in comparison to animals. For example, while humans have only one member of ...
