Journal ArticleDOI
Differential colonization of microbial communities inhabiting Lede stone in the urban and rural environment.
TL;DR: Diverse and complex prokaryotic communities with more specialized bacteria present in the urban environment, while archaea were barely detected are revealed: Some genera could cause biodeterioration but the isolates did not produce a significant amount of acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
The capabilities of bacteria and archaea to alter natural building stones : a review
TL;DR: This comprehensive review provides an overview of biocolonization and potential changes during the 21st Century and focuses on their capabilities to alter natural building stones, to better understand the role of bacteria and archaea.

TL;DR: In this article, a restudy of the palynology of the Whirlpool Formation and Power Glen Formation in New York (USA) yielded a diverse fossil assemblage with cryptospores, glomalean fungi, acritarchs, chitinozoans, scolecodonts, and small carbonaceous fossils.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of cyanobacterial biofilms on water transport and retention of natural building stones
TL;DR: In this article , the effect of cyanobacterial biofilms on water transport and retention was investigated by optical and electron microscopy, and the results showed that the cyanobacteria primarily colonize the building stones on the outer surface and have a limited effect on the water transport properties.
Exploring microbial communities inhabiting gypsum crusts of weathered natural building stones
TL;DR: In this article, the microbial community inside and underneath gypsum crusts was explored to find out who is there and how they relate to the weathering and gypsus crust formation.
