- " Metatranscriptomic array analysis of 'Candidatus Accumulibacter phosphatis'-enriched enhanced biological phosphorus removal sludge"
He SM, Kunin V, Haynes M, et al., Environmental Microbiology 12 (5): 1205-1217 May 2010. Here we report the first metatranscriptomic analysis of gene expression and regulation of 'Candidatus Accumulibacter'-enriched lab-scale sludge during enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR).
- "Seasonal and Episodic Lake Mixing Stimulate Differential Planktonic Bacterial Dynamics"
Shade A, Chiu CY, McMahon KD, Microbial Ecology 59(3): 546-554 Apr 2010. Results suggest intensity, frequency, and seasonality jointly contribute to aquatic bacterial response to mixing disturbance.
- "Differential bacterial dynamics promote emergent community robustness to lake mixing: an epilimnion to hypolimnion transplant experiment"
Shade A, Chiu CY, McMahon KD, Enviornmental Microbiology 12 (2): 455-466 Feb 2010. P>Lake mixing disrupts chemical and physical gradients that structure bacterial communities. A transplant experiment was designed to investigate the influence of post-mixing environmental conditions and biotic interactions on bacterial community composition. The experimental design was 3 x 2 factorial, where water was incubated from three different sources (epilimnion, hypolimnion, and mixed epilimnion and hypolimnion) at two different locations in the water column (epilimnion or hypolimnion).
- "Evidence for structuring of bacterial community composition by organic carbon source in temperate lakes"
Jones SE, Newton RJ, McMahon KD, Enviornmental Microbiology 11 (9): 2463-2472 Sep 2009. To explore the correlation between primary DOC source and the occurrence of bacterial taxonomic groups, we conducted a survey of bacterial 16S rRNA gene composition in 15 lakes positioned along a water colour : chlorophyll a gradient.
