Temporal Dynamics of the Human Vaginal Microbiota
Pawel Gajer,Rebecca M. Brotman,Guoyun Bai,Joyce M. Sakamoto,Ursel M. E. Schütte,Xue Zhong,Sara S. K. Koenig,Li Fu,Zhanshan Sam Ma,Xia Zhou,Zaid Abdo,Larry J. Forney,Jacques Ravel +12 more
TL;DR: The temporal dynamics of the composition of vaginal bacterial communities in 32 reproductive-age women over a 16-week period revealed the dynamics of five major classes of bacterial communities and showed that some communities change markedly over short time periods, whereas others are relatively stable.

Characterization of the Diversity and Temporal Stability of Bacterial Communities in Human Milk
Katherine M Hunt,James A. Foster,Larry J. Forney,Ursel M. E. Schütte,Daniel Beck,Zaid Abdo,Lawrence K. Fox,Janet E. Williams,Michelle K. McGuire,Mark A. McGuire +9 more
TL;DR: The conclusion that human milk, which is recommended as the optimal nutrition source for almost all healthy infants, contains a collection of bacteria more diverse than previously reported is supported.

Advances in the use of terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) analysis of 16S rRNA genes to characterize microbial communities.
Ursel M. E. Schütte,Zaid Abdo,Stephen J. Bent,Conrad Shyu,Christopher J. Williams,Jacob D. Pierson,Larry J. Forney +6 more
TL;DR: The progress made in T-RFLP analysis of 16S rRNA and genes allows researchers to make methodological and statistical choices appropriate for the hypotheses of their studies.
Bacterial diversity in a glacier foreland of the high Arctic.
Ursel M. E. Schütte,Zaid Abdo,James A. Foster,Jacques Ravel,John Bunge,Bjørn Solheim,Larry J. Forney +6 more
TL;DR: The level of bacterial diversity present in this High Arctic glacier foreland was comparable with that found in temperate and tropical soils, raising the question whether global patterns of bacterial species diversity parallel that of plants and animals, which have been found to form a latitudinal gradient and be lower in polar regions compared with the tropics.

Bacterial succession in a glacier foreland of the High Arctic
Ursel M. E. Schütte,Zaid Abdo,Stephen J. Bent,Christopher J. Williams,G. M. Schneider,Bjørn Solheim,Larry J. Forney +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that bacterial succession occurs in High Arctic glacier forelands but may differ in different soil depths, although statistically significant differences between sampling locations in the surface and mineral soils could be demonstrated even though glacierForelands are patchy and dynamic environments.
