TL;DR: It is found that extreme acidic or alkaline pH conditions lead to assembly of phylogenetically more clustered bacterial communities through deterministic processes, whereas pH conditions close to neutral lead to phylogenetically less clustered bacteria communities with more stochasticity.

TL;DR: Sponges are host organisms for various symbiotic microorganisms such as archaea, bacteria, cyano-bacteria and microalgae, and sources of a wide variety of useful natural products like cyto-toxins, antifouling agents, antibiotics, and anti-inflammatory and antiviral compounds.

TL;DR: A phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolates belonged to seven genera of culturable actinobacteria including Actinoalloteichus, Micromonospora, Nocardia, Nocardiopsis, PseudonocardIA, Rhodococcus, and Streptomyces.

TL;DR: The method is a reproducible, simple, and rapid technique for routine DNA extractions from marine bacteria, and the low cost of this method makes it attractive for large-scale studies.

TL;DR: It was showed that soil depth and pH were the most important soil properties determining bacterial community structure of the subarctic tundra soil in Council, Alaska.
