Microbial community gene expression in ocean surface waters.
Metagenomics is expanding our knowledge of the gene content, functional significance, and genetic variability in natural microbial communities. Still, there exists limited information concerning the regulation and dynamics of genes in the environment. We report here global analysis of expressed genes in a naturally occurring microbial community. We first adapted RNA amplification technologies t...

متن کاملMicrobial functioning and community structure variability in the mesopelagic and epipelagic waters of the subtropical northeast atlantic ocean.
We analyzed the regional distribution of bulk heterotrophic prokaryotic activity (leucine incorporation) and selected single-cell parameters (cell viability and nucleic acid content) as parameters for microbial functioning, as well as bacterial and archaeal community structure in the epipelagic (0 to 200 m) and mesopelagic (200 to 1,000 m) subtropical Northeast Atlantic Ocean. We selectively sa...
متن کاملProkaryotic genomes and diversity in surface ocean waters: interrogating the global ocean sampling metagenome.
The Sorcerer II Global Ocean Sampling (GOS) sequencing effort has vastly expanded the landscape of metagenomics, providing an opportunity to study the genetic potential of surface ocean water bacterioplankton on a global scale. Here we describe the habitat-based microbial diversity, both taxon evenness and taxon richness, for each GOS site and estimate genome characteristics of a typical free-l...
متن کاملDifferential microbial uptake of dissolved amino acids and amino sugars in surface waters of the Atlantic Ocean
Nitrogen bioavailability is considered to limit the productivity of oceanic oligotrophic gyres, the largest biomes on Earth. In order to assess the microbial requirement for small organic nitrogen molecules in these and other waters, the microbial uptake rates of amino acids (leucine, methionine and tyrosine) and amino sugars (glucosamine and N-acetyl-glucosamine) as well as glucose were compar...
