Quantifying the effects of hydrogen on carbon assimilation in a marine microb...
The aerobic oxidation of molecular hydrogen (H2) is a thermodynamically favorable energy-yielding process for microbial communities, but how H2 oxidation is connected to... -
Triplicate PCR reactions for 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing are unnecessary
Conventional wisdom holds that PCR amplification for sequencing should employ pooled replicate reactions to reduce bias due to jackpot effects and chimera formation. However,... -
Naturally-diverse aerobiology and mice gut microbiota
We subjected 54 x 3-5 week old inbred BALB/C mice (27 female, 27 male) to a 7 week exposure to airborne environmental microbiota treatments in the form of light soil dust, using...
