DAFGA: diversity analysis of functional gene amplicons.
Yongkyu Kim,Werner Liesack +1 more
TL;DR: A python script package named DAFGA, which estimates the evolutionary rate of a particular functional gene in a standardized manner by relating its sequence divergence to that of the 16S rRNA gene, and it can be implemented into the diversity measurements offered by QIIME.
Journal ArticleDOI
Permanent Managed Grassland at Future Climate Change: Is There a Connection between GHG Emission and Composition of Plant and Microbial Communities?
Louise C. Andresen,Gerald Moser,Ruben Seibert,Cécile Guillet,Ludger Grünhage,Tobias W. Donath,Annette Otte,M. Hemfler,F. Achilles,Carl-Eric Wegner,Werner Liesack,Christoph Müller +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use deep rRNA sequencing (Illumina RNAseq) to reveal bacterial phylogenetic community composition, analyze plant species diversity (Shannon and Ellenberg index) and then integrate treatment response across these traditional disciplines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methylocystis sp. Strain SC2 Acclimatizes to Increasing NH4+ Levels by a Precise Rebalancing of Enzymes and Osmolyte Composition
TL;DR: Strain SC2 has the capacity to precisely rebalance enzymes and osmolyte composition in response to increasing NH4+ exposure, but the need to simultaneously combat both ionic-osmotic stress and the toxic effects of hydroxylamine may be the reason why its acclimatization capacity is limited to 75 mM NH4+.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metagenomic insights into genetic factors driving bacterial niche differentiation between bulk and rhizosphere soils.
Xing-Long Wu,Shuikuan Bei,Xiang Zhao,Yu Luo,Chunxu Song,Barbara Pivato,Werner Liesack,Jingjing Peng +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors applied genome-resolved metagenomics and phylogenomics to investigate the ecological significance of cellular motility for niche differentiation and the links between the genetic makeup of motile bacteria and rhizosphere colonization within a four-decade maize field experiment.
SedimentIsolated from Marine Surface
TL;DR: A mesophilic, anaerobic, gram-negative bacterium, strain SB164P1, was enriched and isolated from oxidizedmarine surface sediment with elemental sulfur as the sole energy substrate in the presence of ferrihydrite as discussed by the authors.
