Journal ArticleDOI
Biogeography of a human oral microbiome at the micron scale
Jessica L. Mark Welch,Jessica L. Mark Welch,Blair J. Rossetti,Blair J. Rossetti,Christopher W. Rieken,Floyd E. Dewhirst,Floyd E. Dewhirst,Gary G. Borisy,Gary G. Borisy +8 more
TL;DR: The discovery of a distinctive, multigenus consortium in the microbiome of supragingival dental plaque illustrates how complex structural organization can emerge from the micron-scale interactions of its constituent organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systems-level analysis of microbial community organization through combinatorial labeling and spectral imaging.
Alex M. Valm,Jessica L. Mark Welch,Christopher W. Rieken,Yuko Hasegawa,Mitchell L. Sogin,Rudolf Oldenbourg,Floyd E. Dewhirst,Gary G. Borisy +7 more
TL;DR: A combinatorial labeling strategy coupled with spectral image acquisition and analysis that greatly expands the number of fluorescent signatures distinguishable in a single image is reported, providing an initial systems-level structural analysis of biofilm organization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nephromyces, a beneficial apicomplexan symbiont in marine animals.
TL;DR: The striking emergence of the mutualistic Nephromyces from a quintessentially parasitic clade accentuates the promise of this organism, and the three-partner symbiosis of which it is a part, as a model for probing the factors underlying the evolution of mutualism, pathogenicity, and infectious disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imaging Marine Bacteria with Unique 16S rRNA V6 Sequences by Fluorescence in situ Hybridization and Spectral Analysis
Yuko Hasegawa,Jessica L. Mark Welch,Alex M. Valm,Christopher W. Rieken,Mitchell L. Sogin,Gary G. Borisy +5 more
TL;DR: Spectral imaging analysis of bacteria incubated with a pair of specific probes and a general bacterial probe enabled the detection of three probe-conferred spectra in each target cell, increasing the reliability of target identification in a diverse bacterial community.
Application of Molecular Knowledge of Microbes to Studies of Ecological Processes: Why the Integration Is So Challenging
Yuko Hasegawa,John E. Hobbie,Jessica L. Mark Welch,Alex M. Valm,Christopher W. Rieken,Mitchell L. Sogin,Gary G. Borisy,Kurt A. Smemo,Christopher B. Blackwood,David J. Burke,Mark W. Kershner +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the functional capabilities of microbial communities at the level of DNA and mRNA and their relationship to environmental processes were studied at the microarray level using functional gene microarrays and other techniques.
