Journal ArticleDOI
Depletion of 13 C in lignin and its implications for stable carbon isotope studies
TL;DR: In this article, the carbon isotope compositions of the polysaccharide and lignin components of a variety of vascular plants, including the salt-marsh grass Spartina alterniflora, were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Planned Introduction of Genetically Engineered Organisms: Ecological Considerations and Recommendations
James M. Tiedje,Robert K. Colwell,Yaffa L. Grossman,Robert E. Hodson,Richard E. Lenski,Richard N. Mack,Philip J. Regal +6 more
TL;DR: The authors support the timely development of environmentally sound products, such as improved agricultural varieties, fertilizers, pest control agents, and microorganisms for waste treatment, through the use of advanced biotechnology within the context of a scientifically based regulatory policy that encourages innovation without compromising sound environmental management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photochemical release of biologically available nitrogen from aquatic dissolved organic matter
Karen L. Bushaw,Richard G. Zepp,Matthew A. Tarr,Daniel Schulz-Jander,Richard A. Bourbonniere,Robert E. Hodson,William L. Miller,Deborah A. Bronk,Mary Ann Moran +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that exposure to sunlight causes dissolved organic matter to release nitrogen-rich compounds that are biologically available, thus enhancing the bacterial degradation of humic substances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anaerobic Biodegradation of the Lignin and Polysaccharide Components of Lignocellulose and Synthetic Lignin by Sediment Microflora
TL;DR: This article corrects the article on p. 998 in vol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial carbon processing by generalist species in the coastal ocean.
TL;DR: The authors' direct measure of niche breadth for bacterial functional assemblages indicates that, in accordance with ecological theory, heterogeneity in the composition and supply of organic carbon to coastal oceans may favour generalist bacteria.
