Selenate Reduction to Elemental Selenium by Anaerobic Bacteria in Sediments and Culture: Biogeochemical Significance of a Novel, Sulfate-Independent Respiration
Ronald S. Oremland,James T. Hollibaugh,Ann S. Maest,Theresa S. Presser,Laurence G. Miller,Charles W. Culbertson +5 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that dissimilatory selenate reduction to elemental selenium is the major sink for selenia oxyanions in anoxic sediments and suggest application as a treatment process for removing selenio-oxyanions from wastewaters and also offer an explanation for the presence of selenite in oxic waters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolism of reduced methylated sulfur compounds in anaerobic sediments and by a pure culture of an estuarine methanogen.
TL;DR: The results indicate the methanogens and sulfate reducers compete for DMS when it is present at low concentrations; however, at high concentrations, DMS is a "noncompetitive" substrate for methanogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation, Growth, and Metabolism of an Obligately Anaerobic, Selenate-Respiring Bacterium, Strain SES-3
Ronald S. Oremland,Jodi Switzer Blum,Charles W. Culbertson,Pieter T. Visscher,Laurence G. Miller,Phillip Dowdle,Frances E. Strohmaier +6 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that reduction of selenite to Se may proceed, in part, by some of the components of a dissimilatory system for sulfur oxyanions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenic(III) fuels anoxygenic photosynthesis in hot spring biofilms from Mono Lake, California.
Thomas R. Kulp,Shelley E. Hoeft,M. Asao,Michael T. Madigan,James T. Hollibaugh,Jenny C. Fisher,John F. Stolz,Charles W. Culbertson,Laurence G. Miller,Ronald S. Oremland +9 more
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis indicates that microbial arsenic metabolism is ancient and probably extends back to the primordial Earth, and production of As(V) by anoxygenic photosynthesis probably opened niches forPrimordial Earth's first As( V)-respiring prokaryotes.

Benthic fluxes in San Francisco Bay
Douglas E. Hammond,Christopher C. Fuller,Dana D. Harmon,Blayne Hartman,Michael Korosec,Laurence G. Miller,Rebecca Rea,Steven Warren,William M. Berelson,Stephen W. Hager +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, benthic fluxes have been measured at a channel station and a shoal station in South San Francisco Bay, using in situ flux chambers, and measurements of easily measured substances such as radon, oxygen, ammonia, and silica showed a variability (± 1σ) of 30% or more over distances of a few meters to tens of meters.
