The effects of environmental factors on water microbial communities have been extensively
studied, but little is known about the effects in shrimp cultural enclosure ecosystems. We …

A graphite electrode and a stainless steel electrode immersed in exactly the same medium
and polarised at the same potential were colonised by different microbial biofilms. This …

To what extent the genomes of different species belonging to one genus can be diverse and
the relationship between genomic differentiation and environmental factor remain unclear …

A non-motile and rod shaped bacterium, designated strain B1 T, was isolated from forest soil
at Mt. Baekwoon, Republic of Korea. Cells were Gram-negative, catalase-positive, and …

Monoacylglycerol lipases (MGLs) are present in all domains of life. However, reports on
bacterial MGLs are still limited. Until now, reported bacterial MGLs are all thermophilic …

Early spring phytoplankton blooms can occur at very low water temperatures but they are
often decoupled from bacterial growth, which is assumed to be often temperature controlled …

Prokaryotes dominate global oceans and shape biogeochemical cycles, yet most taxa
remain uncultured and uncharacterized as of today. Here we present the characterization of …

Phylogenetic analyses of the genus Glaciecola were performed using the sequences of the
16S rRNA gene and the GyrB protein to establish its taxonomic status. The results indicated …

A Gram-stain-negative, facultatively aerobic bacterium, strain X13M-12T, was isolated from a
salt lake (Lake Xiaochaidan) in the Qaidam basin, Qinghai Province, PR China. Cells of …

A pink-pigmented bacterium, designated SW08-7 T was isolated from the drinking water of a
water purifier. Cells were Gram-negative, rod-shaped, strictly aerobic, and non-spore …
