Investigation into the microbial ecology and persistence of soil taxa through trace-gas oxidation in Tongariro National Park
(The University of Waikato, 2019)Cultivation-dependent and metagenomic surveys of bare, volcanic and hyperarid oligotrophic ecosystems have revealed surprisingly diverse microbial communities¹⁻⁴. The richness of Mt. Tongariro soil communities is surprising ... -
The First Insights into the Phylogeny, Genomics, and Ecology of the Novel Bacterial Phylum Armatimonadetes
(University of Waikato, 2015)Currently, a large proportion of novel microbial evolutionary lineages is poorly understood due to limited coverage of representative species. These “candidate” lineages represent significant gaps in our understanding of ... -
The physiological characterisation of a novel Thermomicrobia strain WKT50.2, and a review of the characteristics of the class Thermomicrobia
(University of Waikato, 2013)Thermomicrobia is a class of heterotrophic, obligate aerobes within the phylum Chloroflexi. At the time of writing, it contained four distinct species, Thermomicrobium roseum, Sphaerobacter thermophilus, Nitrolancetus ... -
Thermophilic methanotrophy in the Taupō volcanic zone
(The University of Waikato, 2018)Methanotrophs are widely distributed in the environment and play an important role in the global methane cycle by oxidising the majority of methane produced each year. Geological sources of methane contribute substantial ...
