High biodiversity in a benzene-degrading nitrate-reducing culture is sustained by a few primary consumers
Chrats Melkonian and colleagues use metagenomics and transcriptomics to study microbial dynamics in a 15-year old bioreactor. In contrast to what is expected in a system where benzene is the primary carbon and energy source, relatively few members of the microbial community can degrade this compound...

Sumario: | Chrats Melkonian and colleagues use metagenomics and transcriptomics to study microbial dynamics in a 15-year old bioreactor. In contrast to what is expected in a system where benzene is the primary carbon and energy source, relatively few members of the microbial community can degrade this compound. The results have implications for understanding interdependencies within such a community. |
