Trait-specific dispersal of bacteria in heterogeneous porous environments: from pore to porous medium scale

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, David Scheidweiler, Filippo Miele

The dispersal of organisms controls the structure and dynamics of populations and communities, and can regulate ecosystem functioning. Predicting dispersal patterns across scales is important to understand microbial life in heterogeneous porous environment ...

Characterization of Efficiency and Mechanisms of Cold Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Decontamination of Seeds for Sprout Production

Alexandra Waskow

The consumption of fresh fruit and vegetable products has strongly increased during the past few decades. However, inherent to all minimally processed products is the short shelf life, and the risk of foodborne diseases, which have been increasingly relate ...

Variability in DPA and calcium content in the spores of Clostridium species

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Barbora Bártová, Imrich Barak, Zuzana Chromiková, Cornelia List, Jan Jamroskovic

Spores of a number of clostridia' species, and their resistance to thermal treatment is a major concern for the food industry. Spore resistance to wet heat is related to the level of spore hydration, which is inversely correlated with the content of calciu ...

Combined scanning transmission X-ray and electron microscopy for the characterization of bacterial endospores

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Elena Suvorova Buffat, Paul Pao-Yun Shao, Imrich Barak, Jan Jamroskovic

Endospores (also referred to as bacterial spores) are bacterial structures formed by several bacterial species of the phylum Firmicutes. Spores form as a response to environmental stress. These structures exhibit remarkable resistance to harsh environmenta ...

Dma1-dependent degradation of SIN proteins during meiosis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp

The Schizosaccharomyces pombe septation initiation network (SIN) is required for cytokinesis during vegetative growth and for spore formation during meiosis. Regulation of the SIN during mitosis has been studied extensively, but less is known about its mei ...

Investigation of sporulation in the Desulfotomaculum genus: a genomic comparison with the genera Bacillus and Clostridium

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Elena Cristina Dalla Vecchia

The genus Desulfotomaculum, belonging to the Firmicutes, comprises strictly anaerobic and endospore-forming bacteria capable of dissimilatory sulfate reduction. These microorganisms are metabolically versatile and are widely distributed in the environment. ...

Non-uraninite products of microbial U(VI) reduction

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Elena Suvorova Buffat, Harish Veeramani, Jonathan Sharp, Elena Cristina Dalla Vecchia, Nicholas Wigginton

A promising remediation approach to mitigate subsurface uranium contamination is the stimulation of indigenous bacteria to reduce mobile U(VI) to sparingly soluble U(IV). The product of microbial uranium reduction is often reported as the mineral uraninite ...

POLLEN CLUMPING AND WIND DISPERSAL IN AN INVASIVE ANGIOSPERM

Marc Parlange, Charles Vivant Ignacio Meneveau, Michael David Martin

Pollen dispersal is a fundamental aspect of plant reproductive biology that maintains connectivity between spatially separated populations. Pollen clumping, a characteristic feature of insect-pollinated plants, is generally assumed to be a detriment to win ...

Pollen productivity estimates and relevant source area of pollen for selected plant taxa in a pasture woodland landscape of the Jura Mountains (Switzerland)

Alexandre Buttler, Pascal Vittoz

Relevant source area of pollen (RSAP) and pollen productivity for 11 key taxa characteristic of the pasture woodland landscape of the Jura Mountains, Switzerland, were estimated using pollen assemblages from moss polsters at 20 sites. To obtain robust poll ...

Last millennium palaeoenvironmental changes from a Baltic bog (Poland) inferred from stable isotopes, pollen, plant macrofossils and testate amoebae

Edward Mitchell, Mariusz Lamentowicz

The Baltic coast of Northern Poland is a region of considerable potential interest for paleoclimatic studies because this region is under the influence of both oceanic and continental climates and that these two influences have likely changed through time. ...
