Pedobacter saltans Steyn et al. 1998 is one of currently 32 species in the genus Pedobacter within the family Sphingobacteriaceae. The species is of interest for its isolated location in the tree of life.
How microbial communities change over time in response to the environment is poorly understood. Previously a six-year time series of 16S rRNA V6 data from the Western English Channel demonstrated robust seasonal structure within the…
Emerging evidence has demonstrated that gut microbiome plays essential roles in the pathogenesis of human diseases in distant organs. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive loss…
Johannes Vermeer van Delft /joˈɦɑnəs vərˈmeːr vɑn dɛlft/ (bautizado en Delft el 31 de octubre de 1632- Delft, 15 de diciembre de 1675), llamado por sus contemporáneos Joannis ver Meer o Joannis van der Meer e incluso Jan ver Meer, es uno de…
Conventional sequencing begins with a culture of identical cells as a source of DNA. However, early metagenomic studies revealed that there are probably large groups of microorganisms in many environments that cannot be cultured and thus…
Cannabis has been used medicinally for millennia, but has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat any medical condition. Cannabinoids are the components in cannabis; some are commercially available to treat…
Nail technicians are exposed to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from nail products, but no studies have previously measured VOC biomarkers for these workers. This study of 10 nail technicians aimed to identify VOCs in nail salons and…
Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) is an aquatic plant with important agronomic, horticulture, art and religion values. It was the basal eudicot species occupying a critical phylogenetic position in flowering plants.
Read 403 reviews from the world’s largest community for readers. The most prized item in Soames Forsyte's collection of beautiful things is his wife, the e…
Novel high-throughput sequencing methods outperform earlier approaches in terms of resolution and magnitude. They enable identification and relative quantification of community members and offer new insights into fungal community ecology.
