Microbial ecology From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Microbial ecology is the relationship of microorganisms with one another and with their environment. It concerns the three major domains of life — Eukaryota Archaea , and Bacteria — as well as viruses . Microorganisms, by their omnipresence, impact the entire biosphere . They are present in virtually all of our planet's environments, including some of the most extreme , from acidic lakes to the deepest ocean, and from frozen environments to hydrothermal vents. Microbes, especially bacteria, often engage in symbiotic relationships (either positive or negative) with other organisms, and these relationships affect the ecosystem. One example of these fundamental symbioses are chloroplasts , which allow eukaryotes to conduct photosynthesis . Chloroplasts are considered to be endosymbiotic cyanobacteria , a group of bacteria that are thought to be the origins of aerobic photosynthesis. Some theories state that this invention coincides with a major shift in the early earth's atmosphere, from a reducing atmosphere to an oxygen-rich atmosphere. Some theories go as far as saying that this shift in the balance of gasses might have triggered a global ice-age known as the Snowball Earth They are the backbone of all ecosystems , but even more so in the zones where light cannot approach and thus photosynthesis cannot be the basic means to collect energy. In such zones, chemosynthetic

Microbial Ecology Home Up What is MAPLE MAPLE team members ... Contact MAPLE Proposal to Create a Program of Excellence for the Study of Microbial Ecology in Food Animal Agriculture. The impact of food animal production on the environment is a current, critical public issue. As the industry has made improvements in management, efficiency, and economic viability of food animal production to meet the needs for meat and milk throughout the world, the effect of this increased and concentrated production on the environment has become a focal point of concern. The microbiology of these environments can’t be ignored, as evidenced by the heightened public concerns of animal agriculture’s potential contribution to the onset and spread of bacteria resistant to antibiotics. Ohio agriculture requires a strong and innovative research program designed to assess, and ultimately minimize, the transference of antibiotic resistance genes among microbes in food animal production environments. The Departments of Animal Sciences and Veterinary Preventive Medicine have defined this as a key endeavor and have established a commonality of purpose, drawing on the affinity in research interests among new and established faculty in both Departments. The immediate focus for this team will be to investigate the spread of antibiotic resistance genes in food animal production environments. In addition to their use to thwart bacterial infections, antibiotics are also fed to food animals in sub-therapeutic levels to enhance growth. Bacteria, especially in environments where antibiotics are used, are constantly evolving, and through processes called

Environmental Sciences Division Microbial Genomics Group Microbial Ecology Genomic Technologies for Microbial Community Analysis DNA microarray technology has been used primarily to monitor gene expression and regulation on a genome-wide scale. By contrast, the use of microarray hybridization for microbial community detection and analysis has not been previously explored in a rigorous manner. A major focus of the ESD Genomics Laboratory concerns the application of microarray-based genomic technology for the analysis of the composition, function, and dynamics of microbial communities in natural environments. In the laboratory, we have developed three kinds of glass-based microarrays for addressing specific research questions in microbial ecology (below).

USGS Home Contact USGS Search USGS St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center Coastal and Marine Geology Program St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center Coral Microbial Ecology: USGS Studies Coral Microbial Ecology USGS Coral Microbial-Ecology Studies: Global Climate Change - Microbial Communities as a Diagnostic Tool? Discovering Archaea Associated with Corals Microbial Ecology of Deep-Sea Corals Microbial Wars: Mucus-Associated Bacteria Fend Off Coral Pathogens Conclusion ... John Lisle Scientists and reef managers are concerned about coral reef systems being affected by global change and need to understand the processes that control their resilience. This large, integrated project involves collaboration between the USGS , the University of Hawaii, the Florida Institute of Technology, the Wildlife Conservation Society, and the National Park Service. Studies are underway in the National Park of American Samoa to determine the internal and external factors that increase the ability of a wide variety of corals to resist environmental stress. The shallow lagoon there contains species of Acropora and Pocillopora , corals ordinarily prone to bleaching (expelling their symbionts) at high temperatures. External factors include changes in water temperature, ultraviolet (UV) radiation, dissolved oxygen, and water motion. Internal factors being investigated include genetic diversity of algal symbionts and the associated microbial communities. Because changes in the coral-associated bacterial communities echo changes in the health of the coral, bacteria are at minimum atuned to their host's metabolism and may play an active role in maintaining the overall health of the coral.
