Despite the ubiquity of microbial communities and their ecological and medical importance,
the inter-species interactions that keep these communities together and govern their …

Microbial analysis has become one of the most critical areas in aquatic ecology and a
crucial component for assessing the contribution of microbes in food web dynamics and …

Background Salt marshes are dominated by the smooth cordgrass Spartina alterniflora on
the US Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico coastlines. Although soil microorganisms are well known …

In the present study, we report the nitrogen fixing potential of heterotrophic diazotrophs
isolated from a tropical estuary and adjacent coastal sea. Results of the study revealed that …

The uranium (U) containing leachate from uranium tailings dam into the natural settings,
may greatly affect the downstream environment. To reveal such relationship between …

Nitrogen fixation and its ecological regulation are poorly understood in the tropical estuaries,
which are highly influenced by anthropogenic disturbances. In this study, we investigated …

Although the plant-growth promotion by algae have been studied comprehensively, their
impacts on indigenous soil microbiome remain largely unexplored. Herein we conducted a …

Recently, a growing number of studies have confirmed that biological nitrogen fixation is
also an important reactive nitrogen source in coastal regions. However, how benthic …

Growing concerns about the global antimicrobial resistance crisis require a better
understanding of how antibiotic resistance persists in soil and how antibiotic exposure …

Recent studies have indicated that heterotrophic diazotrophs are highly diverse and fix N2 in
aquatic environments with potentially adverse conditions for diazotrophy, such as oxic and …
