Sulfur as a macroelement plays an important role in biochemistry in both natural
environments and engineering biosystems, which can be further linked to other important …

Abstract Hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) in water is a proven carcinogen to different internal
and external organs of the living organisms. There are different human activities …

The class Deltaproteobacteria comprises an ecologically and metabolically diverse group of
bacteria best known for dissimilatory sulphate reduction and predatory behaviour. Although …

Distinct gut microbiome ecology may be implicated in the prevention of aging-related
diseases as it influences systemic immune function and resistance to infections. Yet, the viral …

While microbial reduction has gained widespread recognition for efficiently remediating
environments polluted by toxic metavanadate [V (V)], the pool of identified V (V)-reducing …

A critical step in the biogeochemical cycle of sulfur on Earth is microbial sulfate reduction,
yet organisms from relatively few lineages have been implicated in this process. Previous …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are ubiquitous on earth and drive numerous redox-centered
biogeochemical processes. The rhizosphere of wetland plants is a highly dynamic interface …

Revealing the biogeographies and ecologies of rare and abundant microorganisms is
crucial to understand ecosystem diversity and function. In this study, we investigated the …

Marine resources and industry have become one of the most important pillars in economic
development all over the world. However, corrosion of materials is always the most serious …

Sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are anaerobic microorganisms that use sulphate as a
terminal electron acceptor in, for example, the degradation of organic compounds. They are …
