Water quality is an emergent property of a complex system comprised of interacting
microbial populations and introduced microbial and chemical contaminants. Studies …

Alkanes are saturated apolar hydrocarbons that range from their simplest form, methane, to
high-molecular-weight compounds. Although alkanes were once considered biologically …

Scope for develo** an engineered bioremediation strategy for the treatment of
hydrocarbon-rich petroleum refinery waste was investigated through biostimulation and …

The lack of microbial genomes and isolates from the deep seabed means that very little is
known about the ecology of this vast habitat. Here, we investigate energy and carbon …

At marine cold seeps, gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons migrate from deep subsurface
origins to the sediment-water interface. Cold seep sediments are known to host …

Nutrient deficiency severely impairs the catabolic activity of indigenous microorganisms in
hydrocarbon rich environments (HREs) and limits the rate of intrinsic bioremediation. The …

There is growing evidence that phages with unusually large genomes are common across
various microbiomes, but little is known about their genetic inventories or potential …

Many pathways for hydrocarbon degradation have been discovered, yet there are no
dedicated tools to identify and predict the hydrocarbon degradation potential of microbial …

The glycyl radical enzyme-catalyzed addition of n-alkanes to fumarate creates a CC-bond
between two concomitantly formed stereogenic carbon centers. The configurations of the …

Humic substance (HS), as an aromatic compound, is the core product of aerobic
fermentation. Denitrification-dependent degradation of aromatic compounds have been …
