Natural ponds in the Brazilian Cerrado harbor high biodiversity but are still poorly studied,
especially their microbial assemblage. The characterization of the microbial community in …

Aim: Microbial communities play a central role in environmental process such as organic
matter mineralization and the nutrient cycling process in aquatic ecosystems. Despite their …

Microbial communities in freshwater sediments play an important role in organic matter
remineralization, contributing to biogeochemical cycles, nutrient release, and greenhouse …

Freshwater reservoirs emit greenhouse gases (GHGs) such as methane (CH4) and carbon
dioxide (CO2), contributing to global warming, mainly when impacted by untreated sewage …

The Cerrado is a biome that corresponds to 24% of Brazil's territory. Only recently microbial
communities of this biome have been investigated. Here we describe for the first time the …

The Cabo Rojo solar salterns are a hypersaline environment located in a tropical climate,
where conditions remain stable throughout the year. These conditions can favor the …

Rivers are important ecosystems that are integrated into biogeochemical cycles and
constitute an essential resource for numerous human uses. However, the assessment of the …

The Amazonian floodplain forests are dynamic ecosystems of great importance for the
regional hydrological and biogeochemical cycles and provide a significant contribution to …

Our comprehension of the dynamics and diversity of freshwater planktonic bacterial
communities is far from complete concerning the Brazilian Amazonian region. Therefore …

Lake sediments are important areas for remineralisation of nutrients involved in
phytoplankton blooms. This study simultaneously analysed the microbial community …
