Biologically induced and controlled mineralization of metals promotes the development of
protective structures to shield cells from thermal, chemical, and ultraviolet stresses. Metal …

Despite the historical and economic significance of banded iron formations (BIFs), we have
yet to resolve the formation mechanisms. On modern Earth, neutrophilic microaerophilic Fe …

Abstract Nitrate‐reducing, Fe (II)‐oxidizing bacteria were suggested to couple with
enzymatic Fe (II) oxidation to nitrate reduction. Denitrification proceeds via intermediates …

The two microaerophilic, Fe-oxidizing bacteria (FeOB) Sideroxydans ES-1 and Gallionella
ES-2 have single circular chromosomes of 3.00 and 3.16 Mb that encode 3049 and 3006 …

Background and aims Considering the global demands in sustaining agriculture, use of
organic amendments is gradually increasing. An improved understanding of the biological …

Microbes form mats with architectures that promote efficient metabolism within a particular
physicochemical environment, thus studying mat structure helps us understand …

With the widespread presence of plastic waste in ecosystems, it is imperative to understand
the response of natural processes to micro-and nanoplastic pollution pressures. However …

Research on geologic carbon sequestration raises questions about potential impacts of
subsurface microbiota on carbon cycling and biogeochemistry. Subsurface, high‐CO2 …

Microaerophilic, phototrophic and nitrate‐reducing Fe (II)‐oxidizers co‐exist in coastal
marine and littoral freshwater sediments. However, the in situ abundance, distribution and …

We identified and quantified abundant iron-oxidizing bacteria (FeOB) at three iron-rich,
metal-contaminated creek sites with increasing sediment pH from extremely acidic (R1, pH …
