A method for the genetically encoded incorporation of FRET pairs into proteins
(2014-09-03)Proteins are composed of 20 canonical amino acids whose unique arrangements predefine a protein’s structure and function. Importantly, most proteins are not static conformations but rather very dynamic entities that undergo ... -
Analyse der UPR vermittelten Stressantwort und ihrer Funktion während der biotrophen Entwicklung von<i> Ustilago maydis</i>
(2016-12-09)The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a conserved eukaryotic signaling network that is activated by accumulation of misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to ensure protein homeostasis. In the baker's yeast ... -
Antagonistic fluorescent pseudomonads cause evasion of the plant pathogen Verticillium by controlling hyphal growth and polarity
(2021-04-09)Abstract Soil borne phytopathogenic Verticillia constitute increasing yield losses. Due to a lack of resistant cultivars as well as appropriate fungicides, the usage of biocontrol agents like fluorescent pseudomonads might ... -
Assessment of antibiotic resistance in soil and its link to different land use types and intensities
(2020-07-15)Nowadays, bacterial infections pose a serious risk for human health again, due to multi-resistant pathogens insensitive to antibiotic treatment. Some of the antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) carried by these pathogens ... -
Compositional and functional shifts in belowground fungal communities in tropical land-use systems
(2020-06-23)Tropical low-land rainforests are one of the most diverse ecosystems in the world and provide valuable ecosystem services such as climate change mitigation. They are immensely threatened by expanding human land-use. ... -
Dependence of soil microbial community structure and function on land use types and management regimes
(2016-11-10)Soil microbial communities are the most diverse assemblages of organisms on earth. They play key roles in nutrient cycling and help prevent soil erosion. Soil microbial communities also harbor many potentially plant-associated ... -
Discovery and Functional Characterization of Novel Soil-metagenome Derived Phosphatases
(2019-07-22)Phosphatases, including phytases, play a major role in phosphorous cycle, cell metabolism, biotechnology, and pathogenic processes. Despite their relevance as biocatalysts, the study of phosphatases/phytases has been almost ... -
Distribution and ecological characteristics of members of the Roseobacter group
(2020-08-27)Marine Rhodobacteraceae are collectively referred to as the Roseobacter group, and due to their functional versatility and high abundance in diverse marine habitats, serve as model organisms in the study of microbial ... -
Diversity and Activity of Soil Bacterial Communities under different Management Regimes
(2015-12-09)Bacteria are key players in nutrient cycles and energy transduction in soil. Although soil bacterial communities have been studied for several decades, our knowledge on their structure, dynamics ecosystem function is still ... -
Diversity and Ecology of the Roseobacter Clade and other Marine Microbes as revealed by Metagenomic and Metatranscriptomic Approaches
(2015-05-29)Marine Bacteria and Archaea represent the major part of the total biodiversity on Earth. They are main drivers of biogeochemical cycles in marine environments and play an integral role in ecosystem structuring. Therefore, ... -
Evolutionary Genomics of Bacillus thuringiensis
(2017-11-07)Nowadays, many evolutionary processes and involved key factors are known but how they influence natural genetic variation and phenotypic traits in bacteria is under debate. However, the mechanism of evolution as well as ... -
Functional diversity of mycorrhiza in relation to land-use changes and ecosystem functions
(2016-02-19)Managing forest ecosystems has a long tradition in Germany. However, the influence of this intervention on the most important symbiosis partners of the trees, mycorrhizal fungi, is poorly understood. The fungal partner ... -
Funktionelle Analyse RNA-basierter Regulation des zentralen Energiestoffwechsels in Bacillus licheniformis
(2015-12-17)This present dissertation focused on the identification, analysis and genetic manipulation of RNA-based regulators for strain optimization purposes. The source material of this work was transcriptome data from industrial ... -
Funktionelle Genomanalyse bakterieller Erreger, assoziiert mit der Europäischen Faulbrut von Honigbienen
(2015-11-23)Paenibacillus larvae and Melissococcus plutonius cause American foulbrood (AFB) and European foulbrood (EFB) on honey bees, respectively. Three typical strains of M. plutonius were isolated from a Swiss EFB outbreak. The ... -
Funktionelle Genomanalyse des Purinverwerters Clostridium acidurici 9a
(2013-02-20)Clostridium acidurici is an anaerobic, homoacetogenic bacterium, which is able to use purines such as uric acid as sole carbon, nitrogen, and energy source. Together with the two other known purinolytic clostridia C. ... -
Green algae in soil: assessing their biodiversity and biogeography with molecular-phylogenetic methods based on cultures
(2016-02-04)Green microalgae (Chlorophyta) dominate soils in the northern temperate climate zone, however, their biodiversity is still poorly understood. Available diversity inventories rely on light microscopy and morphospecies, which ... -
Health consequences of group living in wild Verreaux’s sifakas (Propithecus verreauxi)
(2020-07-10)The evolution of sociality exposed individuals to several new health-related costs and benefits, which fundamentally affect their survival and reproductive success. Group living provides better access to food and mates and ... -
Impact of rainforest conversion: How prokaryotic communities respond to anthropogenic land use changes
(2020-12-03)In this thesis, the impact of rainforest conversion to the managed land use systems jungle rubber, rubber plantation and oil palm plantation on structure and function of soil microbial communities was investigated. The ... -
Metagenomic and Metatranscriptomic Analyses of Calcifying Biofilms
(2014-02-06)Biofilms are the most resistant microbial assemblages known and appeared early in earth’s evolution, which is testified by stromatolites. Therefore, today’s biofilms and microbial mats can give important insights into early ... -
