Microbial life thrives in some of the most extreme environments on Earth. Bacteria, archaea, and other microorganisms inhabit ...

The Microbial Ecology Section of ESA supports ecologists who work with microbes and related microbial processes as their subjects of interest. We ask the same sort of ecological questions that would ...

"Our study focuses on a long-standing goal in microbial ecology: elucidating how environments shape microbial communities, especially in extreme conditions," write the researchers in their published ...

This month, microbiologists gather at ISME12 in Australia to deliberate advances in microbial ecology that could benefit the planet. What are the key challenges for this blossoming field?

Microbial ecology is the study of the interactions of microorganisms with their environment, each other, and plant and animal species. It includes the study of symbioses, biogeochemical cycles and ...

Microbial ecology, biogeochemical cycles, and plant-microbe interactions. Theoretical (modeling) and experimental approaches are used to study the ecology of microorganisms in natural and disturbed ...

My research interests lie in the field of ecosystem science with a focus on the role of the microbial community in biogeochemical processes such as nutrient and carbon cycling. I am interested in ...

Microbial ecology is the study of microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses), their interaction with the environment, and their interactions with one another. Whether the ...

Ecology and evolution of species interactions in a changing ... We are specifically focused on plant rhizosphere and human lung microbiomes and how interactions within these microbial communities ...

In addition to temperature, oxygen and moisture affect the microbial activity. In a project funded by the Academy of Finland and the University of Helsinki we will study the function and role of the ...
