Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of temperature on carbon and electron flow and on the archaeal community in methanogenic rice field soil.
Axel Fey,Ralf Conrad +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that temperature not only affected the activity but also changed the structure and the function (carbon and electron flow) of a complex methanogenic system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Establishment of a Real-Time PCR-Based Approach for Accurate Quantification of Bacterial RNA Targets in Water, Using Salmonella as a Model Organism
Axel Fey,Stefan Eichler,Sébastien Flavier,Richard Christen,Manfred G. Höfle,Carlos A. Guzmán +5 more
TL;DR: It is the first time that RNA standards have been successfully used for a precise quantification of the number of RNA molecules in prokaryotes and demonstrates the potential of this approach for determining the presence and metabolic activity of pathogenic bacteria in environmental samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporal change of 13C-isotope signatures and methanogenic pathways in rice field soil incubated anoxically at different temperatures
Axel Fey,Peter Claus,Ralf Conrad +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, mass balance equations were used to constrain isotopic fractionation factors and pathways of CH4 production in an oxically incubated soil sample taken from an Italian rice field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis of Vibrio cholerae cells entering the viable but non-culturable state and starvation in response to cold shock
TL;DR: Data suggest that the new Q-RT-PCR methodology, based on the selected RNA targets, could be successfully exploited for the identification of V. cholerae and assessment of its metabolic activity (tuf, rpoS, relA mRNA) in environmental samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of temperature on the rate limiting step in the methanogenic degradation pathway in rice field soil
Axel Fey,Ralf Conrad +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential and actual rates of polysaccharide hydrolysis and of CH 4 production from different immediate (acetate, H 2 ) and distal (glucose, propionate) methanogenic substrates were determined.
