Rediscovery of the Microbial World in Microbial Ecology
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent progress in microbial ecology is allowing for the new discovery of the vast, poorly-characterized microbial world. The following four topics are intensively highlighted as perspectives we can use to look into the novel microbial world in nature; unexplored habitats, unexpected microbial diversity/function, microbial community including eukaryotic microbes, and complex microbial ecosystems characterized by large data sets.

Rumen Microbial Community of Saanen Goats Adapted to a High-Fiber Diet in the Northeast of Iran
Swiss Saanen goat is a widespread breed frequently found in commercial herds across the world. The present study aimed to identify the rumen microbial community of exotic Saanen goats adapted to a fibrous diet using barcoded pyrosequencing. Rumen content samples were collected from the four animals via a stomach tube after the morning graze and freeze-dried for DNA extraction. Bacterial and arc...
متن کاملA Review on Impact of E-waste on Soil Microbial Community and Ecosystem Function
The ever increasing pile-up of electronic waste in dumping sites, especially in developing countries such as China, Pakistan, India and several African countries, might have caused a significant alteration in the microbial community of the contaminated sites. This change in the microbial population may have significant impact to the soil ecology function. The major pollutants of electronic wast...

Background: Ready-To-Eat (RTE) foods include any edible food that is commonly consumed raw. This study aimed at evaluation of microbial ecology of retail RTE escarole and red chicory sold in Palermo city, Italy. Methods: A total of 32 mono-varietal RTE samples, including escarole (n=16) and red chicory (n=16) samples were obtained from Palermo, Italy. Both RTE vegetables at expiry date were an...
متن کاملMicrobial ecology in the age of genomics and metagenomics: concepts, tools, and recent advances.
Microbial ecology examines the diversity and activity of micro-organisms in Earth's biosphere. In the last 20 years, the application of genomics tools have revolutionized microbial ecological studies and drastically expanded our view on the previously underappreciated microbial world. This review first introduces the basic concepts in microbial ecology and the main genomics methods that have be...
