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, ... -
Functional Phage Genomics of selected Taxa
(2019-06-26)This work reports the potential of a fully automated genome based phage prediction and classification method with ever-increasing amounts of sequencing data. Firstly, we present an approach we call ClassiPhage and ClassiPhages ... -
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. ... -
Impact of plant species, N fertilization and ecosystem engineers on the structure and function of soil microbial communities
(2014-02-26)Soil microbial communities are directly and indirectly influenced by a complex system of cross-interactions between different biotic and abiotic factors influencing each other, such as plant species and their respective ... -
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 ... -
Metagenomic approaches to discover lipolytic enzymes
(2021-05-04)Lipolytic enzymes, including lipases and esterases, have a wide spectrum of applications in various industrial fields, due to their functional versatility. Despite an increasing number of lipolytic enzymes that have been ... -
Molekularbiologische Charakterisierung und vergleichende Genomik von ausgewählten Vertretern mariner Roseobacter-Stämme
(2014-03-13)The genome analyses presented in this thesis extend the current knowledge of the genomic potential of the Roseobacter clade and identify potential adaptations to ecological niches within marine habitats. New features were ... -
Phylogenetic and functional diversity of soil prokaryotic communities in temperate deciduous forests with different tree species
(2019-04-30)Forest ecosystems provide an important contribution to global carbon storage through processes mediated by trees. As the dominant forest vegetation, trees largely drive primary productivity and mediate the flow of aboveground ... -
Prokaryotic Biodiversity of Lonar Meteorite Crater Soda Lake Sediment and Community Dynamics During Microenvironmental pH Homeostasis by Metagenomics
(2016-08-24)This thesis is on the Archaea and Bacteria from a hypersaline hyperalkaline lake sediment of a meteorite impact crater named Lonar. We have surveyed the active and the total biodiversity of the sediment from Lonar. We have ... -
Taxonomic and Functional Characterization of Biopolymer-degrading Microbial Communities in the Intestinal Tract of Beavers
(2019-05-09)The mammalian gut harbors a complex and specialized microbiota, which includes all tree domains of life (Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya). Bacteria are the most abundant group within the gut system, and they take part in ... -
