BACKGROUND: Stool metabolites provide essential insights into the function of the gut microbiome. The current gold standard for storage of stool samples for metabolomics is flash-freezing at - 80 °C which can be inconvenient and expensive. Ambient temperature storage of stool is ...
Background:
Primary succession is predicted to proceed through shifts from stress-tolerant to competitive to cooperative ecological strategies as resource availability increases, yet molecular evidence for these transitions in microbial systems remains limited. Here, we used an integrated m...
Background Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) play a crucial role in the microbiome of the global nitrogen cycle. Yet, their regulatory functions in the metabolic pathways involved in organic material stabilization (OMS) are not fully understood. We employed...
