TL;DR: The overall data showed that ITSF and ITSReub generated the most informative and reproducible profiles and yielded a wider range of spacer sizes than the other primer sets, which were limited in detecting long fragments.

TL;DR: It is shown that an α-proteobacterium of the genus Asaia is stably associated with larvae and adults of Anopheles stephensi, an important mosquito vector of Plasmodium vivax, a main malaria agent in Asia.

TL;DR: A 2.5-m-thick chemocline with a steep NaCl gradient at 3.3 km within the water column betweeen Bannock anoxic hypersaline brine and overlying sea water is reported, supporting some of the most biomass-rich and active microbial communities in the deep sea.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of fungi in decomposition of leaves and deadwood in boreal and temperate forests is highlighted and the importance of bacteria is discussed. But the complex interactions among microbial communities, ecosystem attributes and chemical composition of fine litter and woody debris remain unclear and almost exclusively referred to boreal or temperate forest.

TL;DR: To the knowledge, this research demonstrate for the first time that different plants species with a diverse nutritional status can promote the development of a peculiar rhizosphere microbiome, depending on the growth substrate.
