Microbial biogeography : putting microorganisms on the map
Jennifer B. H. Martiny,Brendan J. M. Bohannan,James H. Brown,Robert K. Colwell,Jed A. Fuhrman,Jessica L. Green,M. Claire Horner-Devine,Matthew D. Kane,Jennifer Adams Krumins,Cheryl R. Kuske,Peter J. Morin,Shahid Naeem,Lise Øvreås,Anna-Louise Reysenbach,Val H. Smith,James T. Staley +15 more
TL;DR: Current evidence confirms that, as proposed by the Baas-Becking hypothesis, 'the environment selects' and is, in part, responsible for spatial variation in microbial diversity, but recent studies also dispute the idea that 'everything is everywhere'.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of in situ activities of nonphotosynthetic microorganisms in aquatic and terrestrial habitats.
James T. Staley,Allan E. Konopka +1 more
TL;DR: Comparisons between Methods and Applications are compared and problems in Interpreting the Measurement are addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cycloclasticus pugetii gen. nov., sp. nov., an Aromatic Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacterium from Marine Sediments
TL;DR: A new genus and species is described, Cycloclasticus pugetti, for these bacteria, isolated from different locations in Puget Sound, Washington, by using biphenyl as the principal carbon source, and it is revealed that these bacteria are sufficiently different from other bacteria to justify establishment of a new genus.
Book
The Archaea and the deeply branching and phototrophic bacteria
TL;DR: Volume 1 provides descriptions of 407 species in 157 genera, including 172 new or realigned species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Poles apart: biodiversity and biogeography of sea ice bacteria.
James T. Staley,John J. Gosink +1 more
TL;DR: This review discusses sea ice bacteriology as a test case for examining bacterial diversity and biogeography and proposes a set of postulates to determine whether prokaryotes are "cosmopolitan" (found in more than one geographic location on Earth) or candidate endemic species.
