16S rRNA metagenomics

Revealing the composition of bacterial communities in various oil-contaminated soils and investigating their intrinsic traits in hydrocarbon degradation

This study examined bacterial communities in oil-contaminated soils from Iranian oil fields. The research found that crude oil pollution dramatically changed which bacteria thrived in the soil, favoring hardy species like Bacillus that can break down hydrocarbons. These adapted bacteria showed enhanced ability to degrade oil through specific enzymes, suggesting they could be useful for cleaning up oil-polluted areas in salty environments.

Sustainable Recycling of Mushroom Residue as an Effective Substitute for Cotton Hull Waste in Volvariella volvacea Cultivation: Evidence from Physicochemical and Microbiome Analyses

This research shows that mushroom waste left over from growing one type of mushroom can be recycled to grow another type of mushroom, called straw mushroom. The recycled mushroom waste works just as well as the traditional cotton hull material currently used, but costs much less money. By analyzing the bacteria and chemical changes during the composting process, scientists found that beneficial bacteria break down the organic matter effectively, making this recycling method both environmentally friendly and economically practical.

This research shows that mushroom waste left over from growing mushrooms can be successfully recycled as a growing medium for straw mushrooms, similar to the traditional cotton hull waste currently used. The recycled mushroom residue produces mushrooms of equivalent quality and quantity but costs much less to purchase. By analyzing the microscopic bacterial communities in the compost, scientists found that different bacteria help break down the organic matter in both types of substrates, supporting efficient mushroom growth.
