Editorial: Insights into Microbe–Microbe Interactions in Human Microbial Ecosystems: Strategies to Be Competitive
The human body is colonized by trillions of commensal microorganisms (bacteria, archaea, viruses, and microscopic eukaryotes) that are collectively referred to as the human microbiota. The microbiota colonizes the skin and mucosal body surfaces of humans and animals, where they are engaged in a constant crosstalk with the host immune system and metabolism. This human microbiota displays a vast ...
متن کاملEditorial: Hydrothermal microbial ecosystems
The papers in the " Hydrothermal Vent " research topic cover a range of microbiological research in deep and shallow hydrothermal environments, from high temperature " black smokers, " to diffuse flow habitats and episodically discharging subsurface fluids, to the hydrothermal plumes. Together they provide a snapshot of current research interests in a field that has evolved rapidly since the di...
متن کاملEditorial: New Insights into Microbial Ecology through Subtle Nucleotide Variation
Characterizing the community structure of naturally occurring microbes through marker gene amplicons has gained widespread acceptance for profiling microbial populations. The 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene provides a suitable target for most studies since (1) it meets the criteria for robust markers of evolution, e.g., both conserved and rapidly evolving regions that do not undergo horizontal ge...
متن کاملEditorial: The Role of Microbial Communities in Tropical Ecosystems
Microorganisms represent the largest proportion of the Earth's biodiversity and play an essential role in ecosystem processes, providing functions that ultimately sustain all of life (Falkowski et al., 2008; Prosser, 2012). Understanding the link between ecosystem functioning and the distribution of microbial diversity is essential to predict ecosystem responses to a changing environment (de Vr...
متن کاملStochastic Identification of Stability of Competitive Interactions in Ecosystems
The problem of finding an optimum within a set of possibilities that represent the varying successfulness of numerous subjects competing with one another is highly relevant in the field of ecosystem interactions. We propose a method for solving this problem by the application of the Nash equilibrium concept, which is frequently used in ecology. The proposed model is based on the transformation ...
