Ecology of bacteria in the human gastrointestinal tract—identification of keystone and foundation taxa
BACKGROUND Determining ecological roles of community members and the impact of specific taxa on overall biodiversity in the gastrointestinal (GI) microbiota is of fundamental importance. A step towards a systems-level understanding of the GI microbiota is characterization of biotic interactions. Community time series analysis, an approach based on statistical analysis of changing population abu...
متن کاملGastrointestinal ecology and histology of rats monoassociated with anaerobic bacteria.
Pure cultures of anaerobic bacteria colonized the gastrointestinal tracts of germfree rats and induced an increase in the cellularity of intestinal tissue.
متن کاملComparative genomics of human stem cell factor (SCF)
Stem cell factor (SCF) is a critical protein with key roles in the cell such as hematopoiesis, gametogenesis and melanogenesis. In the present study a comparative analysis on nucleotide sequences of SCF was performed in Humanoids using bioinformatics tools including NCBI-BLAST, MEGA6, and JBrowse. Our analysis of nucleotide sequences to find closely evolved organisms with high similarity by NCB...
متن کاملMicrobial population genomics and ecology.
The origins of biological complexity in microbial ecosystems are encoded within the collective genomes of the community. Cultivation-independent genomic studies provide direct access to the genomes of naturally occurring microbes, cultivated or not. Genome-enabled approaches are now significantly advancing current knowledge of genome content, diversity, population biology and evolution in natur...
متن کاملFunctional Genomics Requires Ecology
Since Mendel’s time, most genes have been identified by the effects mutations (including knockouts) have on the morphology, physiology, or behavior of individuals. Thus, almost by definition, there could be no ‘‘mutant genes without phenotypes.’’ In the molecular era, however, it has become possible to identify genes from DNA sequences. This alternative path to gene discovery has already led to...
