Feedback I am a graduate student at Michigan State University in the experimental evolution laboratory of Richard Lenski . Currently, I study the evolution of stress tolerance in microbes , particularly the tolerance of dessication and UV-radiation. My study system involves repeatedly exposing the model bacterium Escherichia coli to desiccation and radiation stresses in long-term evolution experiments (i.e., This system allows me to examine de novo evolution of these stress tolerances. Previously, I studied microbialite-forming cyanobacteria and deep subsurface bacteria. My interests include the ecology, evolution and stoichiometry of microbes, geomicrobiology and astrobiology. My ultimate goal is to synthesize my previous training in ecology and my current training in evolution to better understand microbial systems. (Current as of October 2010) © 2010 Brian D. Wade

Wassenaar Tuesday, 23 December 2008 Microbial ecology is the study of ecosystems that are composed of or influenced by microbes. Microbial ecology includes many different topics An introduction to microbial ecology is given at the Digital learning centre for Microbial Ecology a science education project developed at Michigan State Uni. Ofcourse an ecosystem does not consist of bacteria exclusively. Even arid land soil crusts harbor an ecosystem in which many bacterial species live together with eukaryotic algae, fungi, lichens, and bryophytes Human activity frequently damages natural ecosystems, but when we try to  repair some of that damage,  bacteria can help. Check our display on applied microbiology for what diverse jobs bacteria are used as a cheap labor. Freshwater pollution by organic material is made worse by bacterial activity. The solution would be to stop pollution; the cure can be the application of the right type of bacteria.Â

Log in Forum Home About ... Home > Microbial Ecology What is microbial ecology? Microbial ecology is the study of microbes in the environment and their interactions with each other. Microbes are the tiniest creatures on Earth, yet despite their small size, they have a huge impact on us and on our environment. Microbial ecology can help answer some of our most practical questions such as "How can we improve our lives?" as well as basic questions such as "Why are we here?" Microbial ecology can show us our place in the cosmos how life originated and how it evolved, and how we are related to the great diversity of all other organisms. The study of microbial ecology can help us improve our lives via the use of microbes in environmental restoration, food production, bioengineering of useful products such as antibiotics, food supplements, and chemicals. The study of these bizarre and diverse creatures that are everywhere yet nowhere to be seen is fascinating and a pursuit that appeals to the curiousity and playfulness in us. Most types of microbes remain unknown. It is estimated that we know fewer than 1% of the microbial species on Earth. Yet microbes surround us everywhere air, water, soil. An average gram of soil contains one billion (1,000,000,000) microbes representing probably several thousand species.

An overview of the Section of Microbial Ecology Research within the Section Soils contain most of the planet’s undiscovered biodiversity and yet we know very little about it. The soil biota is vital: they recycle nutrients, produce and consume gases that affect global climate, destroy pollutants, treat wastes and can be used for biocontrol of plant and animal pests. More importantly, soil is the largest terrestrial carbon source, where the organisms are regulating fluxes. The research in the Section of Microbial Ecology is aiming at identifying the microorganisms that carry out carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) turnover in soils, particularly forest soils, characterize some of these processes at molecular levels and identify how they are regulated under different environmental scenarios. A major focus is on symbiotic interactions between fungi and roots of plants. In these ecologically very important associations called mycorrhizae, the fungal partner obtains photosynthetic sugars from the host plant while in return the plant receives mineral nutrients from the fungus. We are also studying parasitic interactions between fungi and soil-living nematodes. Some of these fungi can be used asbiological control agents against nematodes that cause diseases on plants and animals.

Eukarya includes plants, animals, and fungi. [ larger version Above: A coral reef in the south Pacific. Photo credit: Christina Kellogg, USGS larger version Where are these microbes? Coral-associated microorganisms are found in the mucus, tissue, and skeleton of corals. Corals secrete a surface layer of mucus, which functions to keep the coral surface clean of sediment and to capture prey. Each species of coral has mucus that is biochemically unique. When shed, this mucus provides a major nutrient source for the reef environment (Wild, 2004). The tissue of the coral animal is where the symbiotic algae, known as zooxanthellae, live. Endolithic microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, or algae that bore into the coral's calcium carbonate skeleton) are a potential source of nutrients to the overlying tissues. The field of coral microbial ecology is relatively new. What do we know so far?
