TL;DR: Among the regions of the ribosomal cistron, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region has the highest probability of successful identification for the broadest range of fungi, with the most clearly defined barcode gap between inter- and intraspecific variation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Culture-Dependent and -Independent Methods Capture Different Microbial Community Fractions in Hydrocarbon-Contaminated Soils
Franck O.P. Stefani,Terrence H. Bell,Charlotte Marchand,Ivan E. de la Providencia,Abdel El Yassimi,Marc St-Arnaud,Mohamed Hijri +6 more
TL;DR: This study is one of the most comprehensive comparisons of microbial communities from hydrocarbon-contaminated soils using both isolation and high-throughput sequencing methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contrasting the Community Structure of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi from Hydrocarbon-Contaminated and Uncontaminated Soils following Willow (Salix spp. L.) Planting
Saad El-Din Hassan,Terrence H. Bell,Franck O.P. Stefani,David Denis,Mohamed Hijri,Marc St-Arnaud +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that in situ inoculation of AMF strains could be an important component of phytoremediation treatments, but that strains should be selected from the narrow group that is both adapted to contaminant toxicity and able to compete with indigenous AMF species.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Diverse Soil Microbiome Degrades More Crude Oil than Specialized Bacterial Assemblages Obtained in Culture
Terrence H. Bell,Franck O.P. Stefani,Katrina Abram,Julie Champagne,Etienne Yergeau,Mohamed Hijri,Marc St-Arnaud +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that it is possible to sustainably modify microbial assemblages in soil and has implications for biotechnology, as modification of gut microbial assemblelages has led to improved treatments for diseases like Clostridium difficile infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concordance of seven gene genealogies compared to phenotypic data reveals multiple cryptic species in Australian dermocyboid Cortinarius (Agaricales).
TL;DR: The ITS region is confirmed as an effective barcode for Cortinarius and a standard pairwise distance threshold of 2.0% is proposed to DNA barcode Australian Cortinius taxa.
