The proliferation of barren has been reported in the coast of South Korea during decades. Algae-predator is a biological factors for barren. This study analyzed the microbiota...

Amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene is the predominant method to quantify microbial compositions and to discover novel lineages. However, traditional short amplicons often...

This study aimed at understanding whether a core plastic biofilm community exists, and whether it is related to plastic degraders.

This study is part of the Gulf of Mexico-Shipwreck Corrosion, Hydrocarbon Exposure, Microbiology, and Archaeology (GoM-SCHEMA) Study. The natural breakdown of wooden and...

Benthic biofilm communities in relation to varying organic matter concentrations

The release of hydrocarbons and dispersants in the marine environment may place at risk the preservation of historic steel shipwrecks on the seafloor. In this study, we exposed...

Marine sponges (phylum Porifera) are a diverse, phylogenetically deep-branching clade known for forming intimate partnerships with complex communities of microorganisms. To...

The Lost City Hydrothermal Field, an ultramafic-hosted system located 15 km west of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, has experienced at least 30,000 years of hydrothermal activity....

Mangrove habitats harbor abundant biofilms covering sediment as well as biological surfaces (mangrove trees, plastic waste...). This project aims at characterizing the...

Microbial Ecology diversity of natural habitats

At an arctic hydrate site south of the Svalbard archipelago, sediments are characterized by steady methane flux. In two sediment cores recovered from this sites, we found...

Identification of microbes associated at E. amentacea biofilm in adults and germilings

Survey of biofilm bacterial community diversity (16S rRNA) in New Zealand streams

Our study concerns the reliability of techniques for obtaining accurate and quantitative full-length 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing data on bacterial community structure with...

Marine biofilms are the first stage of marine biofouling, however not much is known about their temporal succession. We used Illumina MiSeq-based pair-end 16S rRNA gene amplicon...

This study aimed at the description of marine biofilms developped over antifouling surfaces under different shear stress incubations in the Toulon Bay (and in the SOLA...

This study explores the colonization and biodegradation potential of fungal communities on foamed polystyrene and biodegradable plastics immersed in a marina environment over...

The study investigated the influence of seasonal and biogeographical factors on composition and structure of microbial communities colonizing plastic water bottles in the North...

Olympia Oyster (Ostrea lurida) populations rapidly declined in Washington over a century ago. Currently, there are efforts by the state of Washington DNR to monitor Ostrea...

Microbial communities that grow on surfaces of solid materials in the presence of water are known as a biofilm. Our observation suggested that the biofilm community sampled from...
