Journal ArticleDOI
Rhodoblastus sphagnicola sp. nov., a novel acidophilic purple non-sulfur bacterium from Sphagnum peat bog
Irina S. Kulichevskaya,Vladimir S. Guzev,Vladimir M. Gorlenko,Werner Liesack,Svetlana N. Dedysh +4 more
TL;DR: Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the novel isolate is most closely related to the type strain ATCC 25092(T) of the moderately acidophilic purple non-sulfur bacterium Rhodoblastus acidophilus, formerly named Rhodopseudomonas acidophila.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metatranscriptomics reveals climate change effects on the rhizosphere microbiomes in European grassland
Qicheng Bei,Qicheng Bei,Gerald Moser,Xiaohong Wu,Christoph Müller,Christoph Müller,Werner Liesack +6 more
TL;DR: This metatranscriptomic study suggests that a near-future level of eCO2 combined with prolonged heat waves may have a significant impact on the interactome between rhizosphere microbiomes and plant roots in European grassland; with a primary effect on fungal activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metagenomic insights into nitrogen and phosphorus cycling at the soil aggregate scale driven by organic material amendments.
Xingjie Wu,Jingjing Peng,Pengfei Liu,Qicheng Bei,Christopher Rensing,Yong Li,Huimin Yuan,Werner Liesack,Fusuo Zhang,Zhenling Cui +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, comparative metagenomics and genome binning were applied to investigate microbial functional profiles at the soil aggregate scale under different organic material amendments in a long-term field experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metatranscriptomics reveals a differential temperature effect on the structural and functional organization of the anaerobic food web in rice field soil.
TL;DR: Temperature had a differential effect on the structural and functional continuum in which the methanogenic food web operates, which may not only be a near-future scenario for rice paddies but also for natural wetlands in the tropics and subtropics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation of aerobic, gliding, xylanolytic and laminarinolytic bacteria from acidic Sphagnum peatlands and emended description of Chitinophaga arvensicola Kampfer et al. 2006.
TL;DR: Four aerobic, heterotrophic, yellow-pigmented and flexirubin-producing bacterial strains with gliding motility were isolated from acidic Sphagnum-dominated wetlands of Northern Russia and are capable of degrading xylan, laminarin and some other polysaccharides, but not cellulose, pectin or chitin.
