Soil microorganisms play fundamental roles in cycling of soil carbon, nitrogen, and other nutrients, yet we have a poor understanding of how soil microbiomes are shaped by their nutritional and physical environment. In this study, we investigated the successional dynamics of a soil microbiome during...
The novel fungal strain, Fusarium sp. DS 682, was isolated from the rhizosphere of the perennial grass, Bouteloua gracilis , at the Konza Prairie Biological Station in Kansas. This fungal strain is common across North American grasslands and is resilient to environmental fluctuations. The draft...

Viral communities detected from three large grassland soil metagenomes with historically different precipitation moisture regimes.

Soil fungi facilitate the translocation of inorganic nutrients from soil minerals to other microorganisms and plants. This ability is particularly advantageous in impoverished soils, because fungal mycelial networks can bridge otherwise spatially disconnected and inaccessible nutrient hotspots...

Particle-based crystallization is an important pathway to synthesize advanced materials with complex structures. Unlike monomer-by-monomer addition or Ostwald ripening, particle-based crystallization occurs via particle-by-particle addition to form larger crystals. This chapter reviews the...

Aluminate salts precipitated from caustic alkaline solutions exhibit a correlation between the anionic speciation and the identity of the alkali cation in the precipitate, with the aluminate ions occurring either in monomeric (Al(OH)4–) or dimeric (Al2O(OH)62–) forms. The origin of this correlation...

The Sequel II System Sequencer is a high-throughput DNA sequencer machine developed and manufactured by PacBio , and is designed for high throughput, production-scale sequencing laboratories. Originally released in 2015, the Sequel system provides Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT) sequencing core...

In highly alkaline “water-in-salt” Na2O/Al2O3/H2O solutions where the monomeric Al(OH)4– anion dominates, isolation of transitional species that seed crystallization of sodium aluminate salt hydrates has been challenging. For example, discrimination of dimeric [for example, Al2O(OH)62–] species via...

The Illumina MiSeq System Sequencer is a high-throughput DNA sequencer machine developed and manufactured by Illumina , and is designed for sequencing data acquisition using synthesis technology to provide an end-to-end solution (cluster generation, amplification, sequencing, and data analysis) in a...

The Illumina HiSeq X System Sequencer is a high-throughput DNA sequencer machine developed and manufactured by Illumina , and is designed for high throughput, production-scale sequencing laboratories. Built off the HiSeq 2500 System, harnessing the patterned flow cell technology originally developed...

The Illumina HiSeq 4000 System Sequencer is a high-throughput DNA sequencer machine developed and manufactured by Illumina , and is designed for high throughput, production-scale sequencing laboratories. Built off the HiSeq 2500 System and harnessing the patterned flow cell technology originally...
