45. Microbial Ecology of a Saltmarsh” 122KB (You must have the Acrobat Reader to view this file)This paper serves as a companion piece for the microbial ecology workshop. http://www.coastlive.org/120800_wkshop/120800_wkshop.htm

A live Internet session on December 8, 2000 (1-3:30pm) , highlighted the work of Dr. Paul del Giorgio and Dr. Roger Newell of the University of Maryland’s Center for Environmental Science. These researchers believe that differences in microbial activity will be noticeable among marshes of varying levels of restoration and pristine quality. In an effort to measure the success of restored salt marsh, these researchers have developed a biological indicator of bacterial activity that measures the functional value of the marsh community. Currently, managers may be limited to structural definitions of marsh health—like counts of the number of marsh grass sprouts, number of species, etc. Managers could use this indicator, Bacterial Growth Efficiency, or BGE, as a functional measure of success in restoration or improving marsh health. Additional Information “Using Microbial Metabolism to Assess Ecological Function of a Saltmarsh” (You must have the Acrobat Reader to view this file) This paper serves as a companion piece for the Microbial Ecology workshop. It outlines the role of microbes in the estuaries and introduces the concept of Bacterial Growth Efficiency (BGE). The paper and the workshop try to explain how BGE can be effective indicator of saltmarsh health. The report has background information on the researchers as well as the CICEET Research Program. In addition, technical information associated with the viewing of the Internet Streaming video presentation, and additional sources of information on Microbial Ecology is provided.

A substantial part of the research centers on aquatic microbiology, both in freshwater and in marine environments, performed mostly within the framework of the Moshe Shilo Center for Marine Biogeochemistry. The staff of the division is responsible for the teaching of microbial ecology, microbial physiology and general physiology to students in the Institute of Life Sciences, as well as advanced courses in marine microbiology, photosynthesis, bioenergetics, algal biology, marine biotechnology and membrane molecular biology.

Microbial Ecology Microbial ecology is the study of the function of microorganisms in the environment. Our research is oriented towards understanding the role of microorganisms in a variety of oral diseases using: Molecular techniques Community Level Physiology Profiling In addition we are using a range of techniques to study bacterial quorum sensing in the oral cavity. Molecular Microbial Ecology The mechanisms involved in progression of this dynamic polymicrobial infection and its association with the disease state have not been elucidated. Cultivation studies fail to account for non-cultivable bacteria, which may constitute up to 50% of the oral flora. Recent developments in molecular techniques and phylogentics have redefined the the tree of life and have shown the prokaryotes to be far more diverse the previously suspected. These same tehcniques have allowed the characterization of the mixed oral microflora with a far greater resolution than previously achieved with the additional advantage of allowing characterisation of the non-culturable flora present. T hese techniques utilize the sequence information contained within the 16S ribosomal RNA molecule. These molecules are essential for the survival of all organisms and are highly conserved.

Microbial ecology includes many different topics (Source: International Society for Microbial Ecology) An introduction to microbial ecology is given at the Digital learning centre for Microbial Ecology (home of the Microbe Zoo) a science education project developed at Michigan State Uni. Ofcourse an ecosystem does not consist of bacteria exclusively. Even arid land soil crusts harbor an ecosystem in which many bacterial species live together with eukaryotic algae, fungi, lichens, and bryophytes. (Source: soilcrust.org) Human activity frequently damages natural ecosystems, but we try hard to repair some of that damage, and bacteria can help with these repairs. Check our display on applied microbiology for what diverse jobs bacteria are used as a cheap labor.

Mark Worden Description The Center for Microbial Ecology was founded in 1989 by the National Science Foundation as one of the first eleven Science and Technology Centers in the nation. Research Excellence Funds have been used by the University as a match to the NSF grant. After peer review in the fall of 1994, the NSF has recommended that funding of the Center be renewed and intends to provide $11.3 million over a five-year period that began in February 1995. The intellectual focus of the Center for Microbial Ecology is to understand factors that influence the competitiveness, diversity and function of microorganisms in their natural and managed habitats. This knowledge is important because microorganisms have major roles in determining global warming, ground water quality, plant and animal health, and organic matter cycling. Further, microorganisms are important to the biotechnology industry and include organisms developed to degrade hazardous chemicals, for the production of pharmaceuticals and for biocatalysis. To ensure a sustainable biosphere and to exploit these microbial processes for economic gain, we must develop a comprehensive understanding of microbial diversity, microbial processes and microbial interactions. This can best be achieved through a multidisciplinary research effort as that of the Center.
