Organisms known to contain vitamin K, as well as several bacteria that are obligate anaerobes, produced substances which satisfied the naphthoquinone requirement of the assay organism. Vitamin K ...

AIST researchers, in collaboration with JAMSTEC, Hokkaido University and Tohoku University, have succeeded in cultivating an ...

From 82 patients with positive bile cultures, a total of 150 microorganisms were isolated, including 66 gram-positive aerobes, 66 gram-negative facultative anaerobes, 15 obligate anaerobes ...

AIST researchers, in collaboration with JAMSTEC, Hokkaido University and Tohoku University, have succeeded in cultivating an ultrasmall bacterial strain parasitizing archaea and classified the strain ...

The decrease in oxygen diffusion favors the growth of Proteobacteria, which are typically obligate or facultative anaerobes. By the end of the experiment, the soil in the PLA and APLA groups exhibited ...

AIST researchers, in collaboration with JAMSTEC, Hokkaido University and Tohoku University, have succeeded in cultivating an ...

Together, our synthetic study approach reveals ecological principles that can help explain the widespread occurrence of obligate metabolic cross-feeding interactions in nature. Here we engineered ...

This manuscript offers valuable theoretical predictions on how horizontal gene transfer (HGT) can lead to alternative stable states in microbial communities. Using a modeling framework, solid ...
