The Ward lab at Princeton University does research on microbial ecology, biological oceanography, and biogeochemistry. We're interested in most aspects of the nitrogen cycle in the ocean and other aquatic environments. Our current focus is on linking functional diversity in microbial pathways to ecosystem function, as in the following examples: What is the relationship between the immense diversity in functional genes in the nitrogen cycle (such as nirS (nitrite reductase) and amoA (ammonia monooxygenase)) and the rate of denitrification or nitrification in Chesapeake Bay? Which kinds of eukaryotic phytoplankton are responsible for nitrate assimilation under variable conditions in the surface ocean? What is the composition of the denitrifying consortium in the permanently ice covered lakes in the Taylor Valley of Antarctica and why are some of the lakes denitrification-challenged? Are trace metal availabilities and speciation important in controlling the rates of denitrification and the composition of microbial communities? To what extent is diversity in functional genes linked to variation in isotope signatures of dissolved inorganic nitrogen compounds in seawater?

Microbial Ecology Home Up What is MAPLE MAPLE team members ... Contact MAPLE Proposal to Create a Program of Excellence for the Study of Microbial Ecology in Food Animal Agriculture. The impact of food animal production on the environment is a current, critical public issue. As the industry has made improvements in management, efficiency, and economic viability of food animal production to meet the needs for meat and milk throughout the world, the effect of this increased and concentrated production on the environment has become a focal point of concern. The microbiology of these environments can’t be ignored, as evidenced by the heightened public concerns of animal agriculture’s potential contribution to the onset and spread of bacteria resistant to antibiotics. Ohio agriculture requires a strong and innovative research program designed to assess, and ultimately minimize, the transference of antibiotic resistance genes among microbes in food animal production environments. The Departments of Animal Sciences and Veterinary Preventive Medicine have defined this as a key endeavor and have established a commonality of purpose, drawing on the affinity in research interests among new and established faculty in both Departments. The immediate focus for this team will be to investigate the spread of antibiotic resistance genes in food animal production environments. In addition to their use to thwart bacterial infections, antibiotics are also fed to food animals in sub-therapeutic levels to enhance growth. Bacteria, especially in environments where antibiotics are used, are constantly evolving, and through processes called

Goa l The goal of this element is to determine the potential for natural microbial communities to immobilize radionuclides and metals. In particular, research focuses on: 1) understanding the structure and function of microbial communities in the subsurface at DOE sites contaminated with metals and radionuclides; and 2) identifying and optimizing the in situ growth of microorganisms that transform radionuclides and metals. This research will enhance our ability to predict the effectiveness of intrinsic bioremediation and to optimize microbial communities for in situ immobilization of these contaminants. Researchers in this element are developing and applying molecular and biochemical methods to characterize the structure, activity, distribution, abundance, and diversity of microbial communities at contaminated DOE sites. They are determining ways to identify and quantify key bioremediative populations within these communities (See Figure 4). For example, specific gene probes are being developed to identify populations of radionuclide and metal reducing microbes.

The Microbial Ecology Class Web Page Brought to you by the Kent State University Department of Biological Sciences and the graduate students of the Microbial Ecology class. Instructor: Laura Leff lleff@kent.edu So what is microbial ecology? Briefly, microbial ecology encompasses a wide range of disciplines and focuses on the interactions of microorganisms with one another and with their environment. Microbial ecology utilizes techniques from microbiology, biochemistry, ecology, physiology, geology, and molecular biology in order to study these interactions. Is that all microbial ecology is? Absolutely not! There are many different interpretations of the term microbial ecology and what it means. If you have a definition of microbial ecology that you wish to share, have a question, or just are curious about what we do in class feel free to contact any one of us.

Program Element 2: Community Dynamics and Microbial Ecology Fundamental research in ecological processes and interactions of biotic and abiotic components of ecosystems to understand their influence on the degradation, persistence, and toxicity of mixed contaminants. PROGRAM OBJECTIVE To further the understanding of the structure and function of the microbial and plant community and interactions of components in natural and amended soil and subsurface habitats containing mixed contaminants and to elucidate their role in bioremediation. BACKGROUND Fundamental research is needed in community dynamics and microbial ecology at both the molecular and the organismal level to better understand bioremediation processes. Traditional methods for identifying microorganisms and assessing their activity in soil have limited applicability for bioremediation. APPROACH Understanding the complex relationships and interactions of all the organisms involved will improve prediction, assessment, and optimization of bioremedial processes.

Microbial Ecology and Probiotics in Human Medicine (Part II) John A. Catanzaro, N.D. and Lisa Green, B.Sc. Abstract Probiotics, because of their role in the maintenance of normal gastrointestinal flora, can facilitate human resistance to opportunistic infection and positively impact the outcome in a variety of clinical situations. Probiotics have been used successfully to facilitate treatment of bacterial vaginosis, recurrent urinary tract infections, diarrhea, bladder cancer, complications of antibiotic therapy, dysbacteriosis, and dyslipidemias. The most commonly studied probiotics include Lactobacillus acidophilus, L. casei, L. sporogenes, Bifidobacterium bifidus and Saccharomyces boulardii. Further in vivo studies might reveal additional conditions which will benefit by the correct use of probiotics. (Alt Med Rev 1997;2(4):296-305) Introduction Although beneficial microorganisms, as a component of fermented foods, are an integral part of the human diet in many indigenous cultures, interest in the health benefits and therapeutic potential of probiotics in clinical medicine is relatively new. Probiotics, because of their role in the maintenance of normal gastrointestinal flora, can facilitate human resistance to opportunistic infection. As efforts intensify to decrease reliance on antibiotics, probiotics are receiving increased interest as potential clinical agents. The literal translation of the word probiotic is "for life." Implied in this term is the concept that specific living microorganisms, because of their ability to favorably impact local gastrointestinal (GI) tract ecology, are capable of promoting health. The term "friendly bacteria" is often used as an alternative term for "probiotics." In the strictest sense, these terms are not interchangeable, because probiotics also encompass non-bacterial microorganisms which contribute to GI ecology.
