Ancestral Absence of Electron Transport Chains in Patescibacteria and DPANN

Beam J.P., Becraft E.D., Brown J.M., Schulz F., Jarett J.K., Bezuidt O., Poulton N.J., Clark K., Dunfield P.F., Ravin N.V., Spear J.R., Hedlund B.P., Kormas K.A., Sievert S.M., Elshahed M.S., Barton H.A., Stott M.B., Eisen J.A., Moser D.P., Onstott T.C., Woyke T., Stepanauskas R. (2020)

Recent discoveries suggest that the candidate superphyla Patescibacteria and DPANN constitute a large fraction of the phylogenetic diversity of Bacteria and Archaea. Their small genomes and limited coding potential have ...

Bioaugmentation and rhizosphere-assisted biodegradation as strategies for optimization of the dissipation capacity of biobeds

Campos M., Perruchon C., Karas P.A., Karavasilis D., Diez M.C., Karpouzas D.G. (2017)

Biobeds are on-farm biodepuration systems whose efficiency rely on their high pesticide biodegradation capacity. We evaluated two optimization strategies, bioaugmentation and/or rhizosphere-assisted biodegradation, to ...

Biotreatment and bacterial succession in an upflow immobilized cell bioreactor fed with fludioxonil wastewater

Mavriou Z., Alexandropoulou I., Melidis P., Karpouzas D.G., Ntougias S. (2021)

The large quantities and the persistent nature of fungicide wastewaters have increased the efforts towards a sustainable technological solution. In this context, fludioxonil-contaminated wastewater was treated in an upflow ...

Core versus diet-associated and postprandial bacterial communities of the rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss) midgut and faeces

Mente E., Nikouli E., Antonopoulou E., Martin S.A.M., Kormas K.A. (2018)

This study investigated the impact of different dietary ingredients, with different protein/lipid sources, on midgut and faeces bacteria community structures just before feeding and 3 h after feeding a single meal to ...

Effects of sheep bone biochar on soil quality, maize growth, and fractionation and phytoavailability of Cd and Zn in a mining-contaminated soil

Azeem M., Ali A., Arockiam Jeyasundar P.G.S., Bashir S., Hussain Q., Wahid F., Ali E.F., Abdelrahman H., Li R., Antoniadis V., Rinklebe J., Shaheen S.M., Li G., Zhang Z. (2021)

Biochar prepared from various feedstock materials has been utilized in recent years as a potential stabilizing agent for heavy metals in smelter-contaminated soils. However, the effectiveness of animal bone-derived biochar ...

Green remediation of toxic metals contaminated mining soil using bacterial consortium and Brassica juncea

Jeyasundar P.G.S.A., Ali A., Azeem M., Li Y., Guo D., Sikdar A., Abdelrahman H., Kwon E., Antoniadis V., Mani V.M., Shaheen S.M., Rinklebe J., Zhang Z. (2021)

Microorganism-assisted phytoremediation is being developed as an efficient green approach for management of toxic metals contaminated soils and mitigating the potential human health risk. The capability of plant growth ...

Host species determines the composition of the prokaryotic microbiota in phlebotomus sandflies

Papadopoulos C., Karas P.A., Vasileiadis S., Ligda P., Saratsis A., Sotiraki S., Karpouzas D.G. (2020)

Phlebotomine sandflies are vectors of the humans’ and mammals’ parasite Leishmania spp. Although the role of gut microbiome in the biological cycle of insects is acknowledged, we still know little about the factors modulating ...

Host-associated bacterial succession during the early embryonic stages and first feeding in farmed gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata)

Nikouli E., Meziti A., Antonopoulou E., Mente E., Kormas K.A. (2019)

One of the most widely reared fish in the Mediterranean Sea is Sparus aurata. The succession of S. aurata whole-body microbiota in fertilized eggs, five, 15, 21 and 71 days post hatch (dph) larvae and the contribution of ...
