Impact of DNA damaging agents on genome-wide transcriptional profiles in two marine Synechococcus species.

abstract：:Little is known about the importance and/or mechanisms of biological mineral oxidation in sediments, partially due to the difficulties associated with culturing mineral-oxidizing microbes. We demonstrate that electrochemical enrichment is a feasible approach for isolation of microbes capable of gaining electrons from ...
