Aplysina red band syndrome: a new threat to Caribbean spongesJ B Olson
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa 35487, USA
Dis Aquat Organ 71:163-8. 2006..Studies to elucidate the etiologic agent of ARBS are ongoing. Sponges are an essential component of coral reef communities and emerging sponge diseases clearly have the potential to impact benthic community structure on coral reefs...
Tsukamurella spongiae sp. nov., a novel actinomycete isolated from a deep-water marine spongeJulie B Olson
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487, USA
Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 57:1478-81. 2007..Strain K362(T) therefore represents a novel species of the genus Tsukamurella, for which the name Tsukamurella spongiae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is K362(T) (=DSM 44990(T)=NRRL B-24467(T))...
Microbial ecology of corals, sponges, and algae in mesophotic coral environmentsJulie B Olson
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487, USA
FEMS Microbiol Ecol 73:17-30. 2010....
Molecular comparison of bacterial communities within iron-containing flocculent mats associated with submarine volcanoes along the Kermadec ArcTyler W Hodges
Department of Biological Sciences, The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487, USA
Appl Environ Microbiol 75:1650-7. 2009..Thus, the bacterial communities in the Fe-floc samples were not more closely related to each other than to the sediment communities...
Investigating bacterial sources of toxicity as an environmental contributor to dopaminergic neurodegenerationKim A Caldwell
Department of Biological Sciences, The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Alabama, United States of America
PLoS ONE 4:e7227. 2009..Collectively, these data suggest the potential for exposures to the metabolites of specific common soil bacteria to possibly represent a contributory environmental component to PD...
Detection of Actinobacteria cultivated from environmental samples reveals bias in universal primersM H Farris
Department of Biological Sciences, The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Alabama 35487, USA
Lett Appl Microbiol 45:376-81. 2007..The aims of this study were to develop media to cultivate actinomycetes, screen the resulting isolates with Actinobacteria-specific primers, and examine the efficacy of detection of the actinobacterial isolates with universal primers...
Composition and stability of bacterial communities associated with granular activated carbon and anthracite filters in a pilot scale municipal drinking water treatment facilityT B Shirey
Department of Biological Sciences, The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487, USA
J Water Health 10:244-55. 2012..Thus, GAC may be a suitable biologically active filter substrate for the treatment of municipal drinking water...
Alpha-proteobacteria cultivated from marine sponges display branching rod morphologyJulie B Olson
Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution, 5600 US 1 North, Fort Pierce, FL 34946, USA
FEMS Microbiol Lett 211:169-73. 2002..All nine isolates were shown to be alpha-proteobacteria most closely related to other alpha-proteobacteria isolated from various sponges...
Colony versus population variation in susceptibility and resistance to dark spot syndrome in the Caribbean coral Siderastrea sidereaDeborah J Gochfeld
National Center for Natural Products Research, PO Box 1848, University of Mississippi, University, Mississippi 38677, USA
Dis Aquat Organ 69:53-65. 2006..siderea. These data suggest that phenotypic plasticity in antimicrobial activity may impact microbial settlement and/or survival...
