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 …

We used 16S rRNA sequencing to assess the archaeal communities across a gradient of
Cerrado. The archaeal communities differed across the gradient. Crenarcheota was the …

Although the richness of Bacteria and Fungi in Cerrado'soils has been reported, here we
report, for the first time, the archaeal community in Cerrado's soils. DNA extracted from soil of …

Aims: To evaluate archaeal diversity in natural and impacted habitats from Rio de Janeiro
state, Brazil, a tropical region of South America. Methods and Results: 16S rRNA gene was …

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 …

The Cerrado biome corresponds to an extensive area of Brazil and is considered a
biodiversity hotspot. Frequent fires are a natural feature in this biome and have influences …

Soil from the Amazonian region is usually regarded as unsuitable for agriculture because of
its low organic matter content and low pH; however, this region also contains extremely rich …

This study focused on the structure and composition of archaeal communities in sediments
of tropical mangroves in order to obtain sufficient insight into two Brazilian sites from different …

Purpose This study evaluates the presence and diversity of 16S rRNA (rrs) and amoA genes
from archaea in three mangrove sediments under different stages of preservation (one …

The study of the ecology of soil microbial communities at relevant spatial scales is primordial
in the wide Amazon region due to the current land use changes. In this study, the diversity of …
