Ecological traits that filter the occurrence of species and functional groups responding to environmental and other variables are keys to the assembly processes of communities, but little is currently known about these processes for endophytic fungi. A trophic-based joint species distribution model was applied to endophyte occurrence by 110 crucifer-inhabiting fungal species isolated from Brassica rapa, Raphanus sativus and Brassica oleracea, from 21 sites with different landscape compositions and pesticide use over four seasons. We investigated the responses of taxonomie diversity, function diversity and functional composition. Season, plant identity and plant part were significant factors in shaping all indices. Elevation …

Consistency Is Futile!: Selecting Phycoremediators For Consortia, Tori Spencer
BIO 410 Spring 2019 Research Papers
Bioremediation is the process by which organisms remove and transform toxic compounds in a contaminated source. This is a waste management technique currently used to clean up man-made contamination. Many organisms act as natural remediators; in the case of algae, they are called phycoremediators who perform phycoremediaton. The term algae encompasses a variety of taxonomic groups and their diversity is still being realized; there are over 44,000 named species of the 72,000 species that we have identified. Some estimates calculate that there are over 200,000 diatom species alone. This diversity continues to be difficult to organize, which is problematic for …

DEEPEND Datasets
Seawater was collected and filtered for microbiome and bacterioplankton sequencing and analyses at various depths during planned DEEPEND cruise expeditions to the GOM in 2016. Filters were stored and then processed for total environmental genomic DNA according to standard methods (see earthmicrobiome.org). 16S rRNA amplicon libraries covering the V4 hypervariable regions were generated with universal PCR primers and then sequenced on an Illumina MiSeq DNA sequencing platform. Raw paired-end sequences were joined and quality filtered in the bioinformatics program, QIIME. Vertical baseline characterizations will track alpha and beta diversity at different depths ranging from 0 – 1500 m, assess seasonal …
