Twenty two distinct bacteriophages were isolated from sewage water from five locations in
the city of Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire over a two-year period, using a collection of Pseudomonas …

Coevolution between bacteriophages (phages) and their prey is the result of mutualistic
interactions. Here, we show that pseudolysogeny is a frequent outcome of infection by virulent …

To limit the nitrate contamination of ground and surface water, stimulation of denitrification
by electrochemical approach is an innovative way to be explored. Two nitrate reducing bio-…

For small-scale farms, the development of rustic and cheap psychrophilic anaerobic digestion
systems appears as an opportunity to treat manure, mitigate gaseous emissions and …

Diversity of viruses infecting non‐extremophilic archaea has been grossly understudied.
This is particularly the case for viruses infecting methanogenic archaea, key players in the …

Three distinct biological reactors fed with synthetic medium (UASB_Control), synthetic
medium and linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS; UASB_SL), and real laundry wastewater (…

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a process that can efficiently degrade organic waste into renewable
energies. AD failure is however common as the underpinning microbial mechanisms …

Full-scale anaerobic digesters’ performance is regulated by modifying their operational
conditions, but little is known about how these modifications affect their microbiome. In this work, …

Energy recovery from lignocellulosic waste has been studied as an alternative to the problem
of inappropriate waste disposal. The present study aimed at characterizing the microbial …

Background The development of high-throughput sequencing technologies has substantially
improved analysis of bacterial community diversity, composition, and functions. Over the …
