From microbes to mammals: pond biodiversity homogenization across different land-use types in an agricultural landscape

D. Ionescu, M. Bizic, R. Karnatak, C. L. Musseay, G. Onandia, M. Kasada, S. A. Berger, J. C. Nejstgaard, M. Ryo, G. Lischeid, M. O. Gessner, S. Wollrab, H.-P. Grossart

The paper assesses biodiversity homogenization in kettle holes across different land-use types using eDNA sequencing and finds that agricultural intensification and nutrient enrichment lead to reduced biodiversity differences.

Heterozygous, polyploid, giant bacterium, Achromatium, possesses an identical functional inventory worldwide across drastically different ecosystems

D. Ionescu, L. Zoccarato, A. Zaduryan, S. Schorn, M. Bizic, S. Pinnow, H. Cypionka, H.-P. Grossart

The paper shows Achromatium, a polyploid bacterium, has a globally identical functional inventory across diverse ecosystems, adapting through gene expression rather than genetic change.

Cave Thiovulaceae differ metabolically and genomically from marine species

M. Bizic, T. Brad, D. Ionescu, L. Barbu-Tudoran, J. Aerts, R. Popa, L. Zoccarato, J. Ody, J.-F. Flot, S. Tighe, D. Vellone, S. M. Sarbu

The paper compares the genomes of cave-dwelling Thiovulum species to a marine strain, revealing metabolic adaptations for sulfur and nitrogen cycling in subterranean environments.

Widespread methane formation by Cyanobacteria in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems

M. Bizic, T. Klintzch, D. Ionescu, M. Y. Hindiyeh, M. Guenthel, A. M. Muro Pastor, W. Eckert, F. Keppler, H.-P. Grossart

This study shows Cyanobacteria produce methane in both oxygenated and anoxic conditions, challenging the view that methanogenesis is exclusive to Archaea and linking it to climate change and Earth's methane history.
