Lakes are dynamic and complex ecosystems that can be influenced by physical, chemical,
and biological processes. Additionally, individual lakes are often chemically and physically …

Members of the phylum Planctomycetes were originally described as freshwater bacteria.
Most recent studies, however, address planctomycete diversity in other environments …

We herein propose a fast and easy DNA and RNA co-extraction method for environmental
microbial samples. It combines bead beating and phenol-chloroform phase separation …

As viruses regulate prokaryotic abundance and the carbon cycle by infecting and lysing their
prokaryotic hosts, the volume of infected prokaryotes is an important parameter for …

A lab-scale partial nitritation SBR was operated at 11° C for 300 days used for the treatment
of high-ammonium wastewater, which was inoculated with activated sludge from Rovaniemi …

CL500-11 (phylum Chloroflexi) is one of the most ubiquitous and abundant bacterioplankton
lineages in deep freshwater lakes inhabiting the oxygenated hypolimnion. While …

Abstract Greenland and the Tibetan Plateau, also known as the third pole, are both cold
environments where anthropogenic activities are relatively weak. There are multitudinous …

This study investigated the effects of WO 3-based photocatalytic bactericide on the piggery
environment, microorganisms in pig manure, and weaned piglets. After spraying WO 3 …

Host‐associated microbiota is an essential mediator of host adaptation to changeable
environmental conditions. However, whether fish predation risk alters the gut microbiota …

How patterns in community diversity emerge is a long-standing question in ecology.
Theories and experimental studies suggested that community diversity and interspecific …
