Soil protist diversity enhances prokaryotic diversity, and regulates dominant prokaryotes and the abundance of key nitrogen cycling genes

Marta E. Pérez-Villanueva, Stephanie D. Jurburg, Cédric Malandain, Nawras Ghanem, Antonis Chatzinotas

This study shows that higher soil protist diversity increases prokaryotic diversity and affects nitrogen cycling genes through selective predation.

Effects of a novel Paraburkholderia phage IPK on the phenanthrene degradation efficiency of the PAH-degrading strain Paraburkholderia caledonica Bk.

Esteban Emanuel Nieto, Nawras Ghanem, Robertina V. Cammarata, Felipe Borim Corrêa, Bibiana M. Coppotelli, Antonis Chatzinotas

This study isolates and characterizes a novel phage IPK that enhances phenanthrene degradation by its host Paraburkholderia caledonica Bk, showing higher degradation efficiency at higher MOI.
