Assessment of the diversity, abundance, and ecological distribution of members of candidate division SR1 reveals a high level of phylogenetic diversity but limited morphotypic diversity
Davis, James P.; Youssef, Noha H.; Elshahed, Mostafa S. (American Society for Microbiology, 2009-06)We used a combination of 16S rRNA gene clone library surveys, quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis, and fluorescent in situ hybridization to investigate the diversity, abundance, and distribution of members of candidate division ... -
Influence of the drilling mud formulation process on the bacterial communities in thermogenic natural gas wells of the Barnett Shale
Struchtemeyer, Christopher G.; Davis, James P.; Elshahed, Mostafa S. (American Society for Microbiology, 2011-07)The Barnett Shale in north central Texas contains natural gas generated by high temperatures (120 to 150°C) during the Mississippian Period (300 to 350 million years ago). In spite of the thermogenic origin of this gas, ... -
Novelty and uniqueness patterns of rare members of the soil biosphere
Elshahed, Mostafa S.; Youssef, Noha H.; Spain, Anne M.; Sheik, Cody; Najar, Fares Z.; Sukharnikov, Leonid O.; Roe, Bruce A.; Davis, James P.; Schloss, Patrick D.; Bailey, Vanessa L.; Krumholz, Lee R. (American Society for Microbiology, 2008-09)Soil bacterial communities typically exhibit a distribution pattern in which most bacterial species are present in low abundance. Due to the relatively small size of most culture-independent sequencing surveys, a detailed ...
