Thiosulfate Reduction in Halanaerobium: A Genomic and Physiological Investigation
(2017-12-06)
Bacteria that produce sulfide have been investigated for their role in corrosion of steel surfaces. Attention has mainly focused on bacteria able to reduce sulfate to sulfide (SRB). However, bacteria that produce sulfide ...
SHIFTS OF SOIL MICROBIAL COMMUNITIES IN ALASKAN TUNDRA IN RESPONSE TO LONG-TERM WARMING
(2016-08)
Permafrost regions store about 33% of the world’s soil organic carbon, and are believed to rapidly respond to global warming. The degradation and release of previously stored organic carbon stocks lead to positive feedbacks, ...
The effect of a non-circadian photoperiod on the growth, physiology, and production of a romaine lettuce cultivar
(2022)
The circadian rhythm serves to match plant physiology and behavior with the environmental
cycles caused by the rotation of the planet. The circadian rhythm contributes towards the
structure and function of plants and ...
Cell Wall Alterations During Lateral Root Emergence in Oryza Sativa
(2016)
In rice seedlings, lateral roots (LRs) develop through several layers of extant tissues, including multiple cortex cell layers, as well as single files of sclerenchyma, exodermis, and epidermal cells. In contrast to typical ...
The Impact of Nurse Plants and Microclimate on Spatial and Temporal Trends of Juniperus virginiana L. Seedlings in an Oklahoma Grassland
(2020-06-12)
Juniperus virginiana L. (eastern red cedar) is a species of interest throughout North America as a result of its rapid encroachment into historic grasslands, but the effects of nurse trees on J. virginiana seedling recruitment ...
Impact of Photooxidation and Biodegradation on the Fate of the Oil Spilled During the Deepwater Horizon Incident: The Advanced Stages of Weathering
(2016-12)
The major biogeochemical forces influencing the environmental fate of spilled oil have been intensively investigated for many decades. The sinking and burying of spilled residual oil to form large mats that subsequently ...
Single-cell genomics of a candidate division TM6 - uncultured bacterial phylum in Zodletone Spring, Oklahoma
Previously, metagenomic studies of Zodletone Spring (south-western Oklahoma) revealed uncultured and poorly characterized bacterial phyla. Among them, a bacterial phylum "Candidate Division TM6" is present. It is widespread ...
Metabolite Profiling Of Experimental Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Lesions Demonstrates Significant Perturbations In Tissue Glycerophosphocholines
(2021-05-15)
Each year 700,000 to 1.2 million new cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) are reported and yet CL remains one of thirteen diseases classified as neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). Leishmania major is one of several ...
RECLASSIFICATION OF CLOSTRIDIUM CLUSTER XVIII AND DESCRIPTION OF THREE NOVEL TAXA WITHIN THE GRAM-POSITIVE ANAEROBIC COCCI
(2018-07-06)
Current taxonomic classification approaches employ a polyphasic approach to characterize novel species. Most study morphological and biochemical characteristics along with chemotaxonomic characteristics to aid in the general ...
Phenotypic, Chemotaxonomic and Genomic Characterization of a Novel Anaerobic Acetogen, Clostridium muelleri sp. nov. P21T Isolated from Old Hay
(2020-05)
Acetogens are a group of obligately anaerobic bacteria that use the Wood-Ljungdahl (acetyl-CoA) pathway for the production of acetyl-CoA from 2 moles of CO2. Acetyl-CoA is then converted to various acids and alcohols such ...
