Ecology of Phototrophic Sulfur Bacteria
Hans van Gemerden,Jordi Mas +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized a number of reports from the literature, collecting the information on the abundance of these bacteria as well as on their contribution to primary production, and suggested the existence of an upper limit for the production of these organisms in nature, based on the balance between growth and losses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phototrophic sulfur bacteria in two Spanish lakes: Vertical distribution and limiting factors1
Ricardo Guerrero,Emilio Montesinos,Carlos Pedrós-Alió,Isabel Esteve,Jordi Mas,H. van Gemerden,P. A. G. Hofman,J. F. Bakker +7 more
TL;DR: The anaerobic zones of Lakes Cis6 and Vilar had mass developments of purple sulfur bacteria during summer 1982 and these phenomena point to the crucial role of light in the development of layers of phototrophic bacteria in stratified lakes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial communities from different types of natural wastewater treatment systems: vertical and horizontal flow constructed wetlands and biofilters.
Bárbara Adrados,Olga Sánchez,Carlos A. Arias,Eloy Bécares,L. Garrido,Jordi Mas,Hans Brix,Jordi Morató +7 more
TL;DR: Cluster analysis of the DGGE bacterial band patterns showed that community structure was related to the design of the treatment system and the organic matter load, while no clear relation was established between the microbial assemblage and the wastewater influent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silicon-based microfabricated microbial fuel cell toxicity sensor.
TL;DR: The MFC approach presented in this work aims to obtain a simple, compact and planar device for its further application as a biosensor in the design and fabrication of equipment for toxicity monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predatory prokaryotes: Predation and primary consumption evolved in bacteria
TL;DR: It is concluded that antagonistic relationships such as primary consumption, predation, and scavenging had already evolved in microbial ecosystems prior to the appearance of eukaryotes.
