A culture-independent survey of the bacterial community in a radon hot spring.
Paralana is an active, radon-containing hot spring situated in a region of South Australia's Flinders Ranges with a long history of hydrothermal activity. Our aim was to determine the bacterial composition of Paralana using a culture-independent, 16S rRNA-based technique. The presence of a diverse bacterial community was strongly suggested by the large number (approximately 180) of different ri...
متن کاملEffective Dose Rate of Radon Gas in Jooshan Hot Spring of Kerman Province
Background & Aims: Human beings are constantly exposed to different radiations that have always been recognized as a health hazard. Radon -222 and its daughter products are major sources of natural radiations and a significant total inhalation dose is related to them. Hence, the measurement of radon activity in the environment has gained an increasing importance. In this study, with the measure...
متن کاملMicrobial Community Assembly and Diversification of the Genus Chloroflexus along an Alkaline Hot Spring Gradient
This research aims to achieve a greater understanding of the structure of bacterial communities present in alkaline hot springs in Yellowstone National Park. I focus specifically on White Creek and Rabbit Creek in the Lower Geyser Basin. I show that, overall, the bacterial communities of both creeks are non-randomly assembled. However, at finer taxonomic scales, bacterial groups differ in their...
متن کاملHot Spring Microbial Community Composition, Morphology, and Carbon Fixation: Implications for Interpreting the Ancient Rock Record
Microbial communities in hydrothermal systems exist in a range of macroscopic morphologies including stromatolites, mats, and filaments. The architects of these structures are typically autotrophic, serving as primary producers. Structures attributed to microbial life have been documented in the rock record dating back to the Archean including recent reports of microbially-related structures in...
متن کاملProfiling of microbial community of Odisha hot spring based on metagenomic sequencing.
Deulajhari hot spring has diverse temperature and pH range varying from 43 °C to 65 °C and 7.83 to 8.10 respectively. Dense foliage around Deulajhari hot spring contributes to the high total organic carbon content (TOC). In our experiment we took sediment samples from the two Deulajhari hot springs (S1 and S2) out of the cluster having temperature of 43 °C and 55 °C and pH of 7.83 and 7.14 resp...
