Bacteroidetes as a sensitive biological indicator of agricultural soil usage revealed by a culture-independent approach

TL;DR: In this paper , two landfills (BJ and WZ) were selected to investigate the leaching characteristics of various pollutants along the vadose soil depths, including NO3--N, NO2-N, NH4+N, OM, NO3-N and EC, which exhibited a typical leaching dynamic along the depths.

TL;DR: In this article , the combined applications of SMS and dicyandiamide significantly decreased soil carbendazim content by 38.14% but significantly enhanced soil β-glucosidase, chitinase, arylsulfatase, urease and electron transfer system activities.

TL;DR: This study investigated plant community characteristics, soil fertility and soil microbial diversity in the L. virgaurea and L. sagitta communities on the eastern QTP and revealed that soil Mg levels had the greatest relative influence on the structure and diversity of the soil microbial community.

TL;DR: M mothur is used as a case study to trim, screen, and align sequences; calculate distances; assign sequences to operational taxonomic units; and describe the α and β diversity of eight marine samples previously characterized by pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA gene fragments.

TL;DR: BCL3 and Sheehy cite Bergey's manual of determinative bacteriology of which systematic bacteriology, first edition, is an expansion.

TL;DR: UCHIME has better sensitivity than ChimeraSlayer (previously the most sensitive database method), especially with short, noisy sequences, and in testing on artificial bacterial communities with known composition, UCHIME de novo sensitivity is shown to be comparable to Perseus.

TL;DR: The World Reference Base for Soil Resources (WRB) as mentioned in this paper is a reference base for soil resources developed by the International Union of Soil Sciences (IUSS) for soil correlation.
