Journal ArticleDOI

On the rocks: the microbiology of Antarctic Dry Valley soils.

S. Craig Cary, +4 more
- 01 Feb 2010 - 
TL;DR: This work reviews the understanding of these extreme Antarctic terrestrial microbial communities, with particular emphasis on the factors that are involved in their development, distribution and maintenance in these cold desert environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular ecology techniques for the study of aerobic methanotrophs.

Ian R. McDonald, +3 more
- 01 Mar 2008 - 
TL;DR: Methane oxidation can occur in both aerobic and anaerobic environments; however, these are completely different processes involving different groups of prokaryotes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrate removal, communities of denitrifiers and adverse effects in different carbon substrates for use in denitrification beds.

Sören Warneke, +6 more
- 01 Nov 2011 - 
TL;DR: The combination of maize cobs and woodchips is recommended to enhance NO(3)(-)-N removal while minimizing adverse effects in denitrification beds, but adverse effects include TOC release, dissolved N(2)O release and substantial carbon consumption by non-denitrifiers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stable-isotope probing of nucleic acids: a window to the function of uncultured microorganisms.

Stefan Radajewski, +3 more
- 01 Jun 2003 - 
TL;DR: Investigations using labelled substrates, or which detect variations in the natural abundance of isotopes, have revealed the metabolic function of microorganisms without the need to isolate them in culture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of Methanotrophic Bacterial Populations in Soils Showing Atmospheric Methane Uptake

Andrew J. Holmes, +6 more
- 01 Aug 1999 - 
TL;DR: In this study the soil methane-oxidizing population was characterized by both labelling soil microbiota with14CH4 and analyzing a total soil monooxygenase gene library, and an unknown group of bacteria belonging to the α subclass of the class Proteobacteria was present.
