Journal ArticleDOI
Salinity and bacterial diversity: to what extent does the concentration of salt affect the bacterial community in a saline soil?
Loredana Canfora,Giovanni Bacci,Giovanni Bacci,Flavia Pinzari,Giuseppe Lo Papa,Carmelo Dazzi,Anna Benedetti +6 more
TL;DR: It emerged that a patchy saline soil can not contain just a single microbial community selected to withstand extreme osmotic phenomena, but many communities that can be variously correlated to one or more environmental parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil bacterial community response to differences in agricultural management along with seasonal changes in a Mediterranean region
Annamaria Bevivino,Patrizia Paganin,Giovanni Bacci,Alessandro Florio,Maite Sampedro Pellicer,Maria Cristiana Papaleo,Alessio Mengoni,Luigi Ledda,Renato Fani,Anna Benedetti,Claudia Dalmastri +10 more
TL;DR: Soil bacterial communities were seasonally distinct and exhibited compositional shifts that tracked with changes in land use and soil management, which may contribute to future searches for bacterial bio-indicators of soil health and sustainable productivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring the evolutionary dynamics of plasmids: the Acinetobacter pan-plasmidome
Marco Fondi,Giovanni Bacci,Matteo Brilli,Maria Cristiana Papaleo,Alessio Mengoni,Mario Vaneechoutte,Lenie Dijkshoorn,Renato Fani +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that transposases and selective pressure for mercury resistance seem to have played a pivotal role in plasmid evolution in Acinetobacter genomes sequenced so far.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preliminary Comparison of Oral and Intestinal Human Microbiota in Patients with Colorectal Cancer: A Pilot Study
Edda Russo,Giovanni Bacci,Carolina Chiellini,Camilla Fagorzi,Elena Niccolai,Antonio Taddei,Federica Ricci,Maria Novella Ringressi,Rossella Borrelli,Filippo Melli,Manouela Miloeva,Paolo Bechi,Alessio Mengoni,Renato Fani,Amedeo Amedei +14 more
TL;DR: Next-Generation Sequencing was used to analyze and compare human microbiota from three different compartments of a selected cohort of 10 Italian patients with colorectal cancer and found a different taxonomic composition of feces from CRC compared to healthy controls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in cystic fibrosis airway microbial community associated with a severe decline in lung function
Patrizia Paganin,Ersilia Fiscarelli,Vanessa Tuccio,Manuela Chiancianesi,Giovanni Bacci,P. Morelli,Daniela Dolce,Claudia Dalmastri,Alessandra De Alessandri,Vincenzina Lucidi,Giovanni Taccetti,Alessio Mengoni,Annamaria Bevivino +12 more
TL;DR: Overall, changes in CF airway microbial community associated with a severe lung function decline were detected, allowing us to define some discriminatory species as well as some discriminatory T-RFs that represent good candidates for the development of predictive biomarkers of substantial decline in lung function.
