Genome-resolved assessment of archaeal diversity in full-scale anaerobic digesters reveals variability in mcrA primer coverage.
J Appl Microbiol · 22 Aug 2026 — Methanogenic archaea are key players in anaerobic digestion, driving methane production in biogas reactors. This study aimed to assess the diversity of methanogenic ar...

I appear to be in Japan... & about to go meet @mioconnor so we can head to the #jambio symposium on the Future of Aquatic Ecosystems

Excited to be talking at #jambio symposium today, the meeting of the 21 marine & inland field stations in Japan.

Rueckert: Parasitized Ciona produce reeeeally long poops which disperses the parasites before the host dies. Wild! #jambio

Nakajima: at least 42 chemosynthetic seep and vent sites around Japanese Archipelago w/ 155 species, many endemic #jambio
November 26, 2024 at 6:03 PM
Nakajima: Higher species richness at vents & seeps around Japan w/ higher methane concentration, but not hydrogen sulfide #jambio

Fortunato making a rousing case for Bryozoans to be the new lab (and field) rat for ocean acidification studies! #jambio

Fortunato: 300 years of bryozoan Flustra foliacea in museums allows for amazing comparison of change through time w/ pH change. #jambio

Aeby: we are now seeing an increase in coral disease in the Indo-Pacific like that seen previously in the Caribbean. #jambio (correction)
November 26, 2024 at 6:03 PM
Aeby: Acroporids the most susceptible to disease in IndoPacific, just like Caribbean #jambio

Aeby: Hawaiian coral disease outbreaks started in 2003 - increasing in frequency now as predicted #jambio

Yamashiro: Starting in ~2003, coral disease becoming prevalent in Japan (this after 1970s crown of thorns, and 1980s bleaching) #jambio

Yamashiro: Observed black band disease of corals in Okinawa in 2013 #jambio

.@mioconnor we're in the middle of a "kerfuffle" over whether smallscale biodiversity is increasing, decreasing, or staying the same #jambio
November 26, 2024 at 5:38 PM
.mioconnor: Global extinctions + regional extinctions + regional invasions + landscape & site impacts = ?? for biodiversity #jambio
November 26, 2024 at 5:38 PM
.@mioconnor: Human impact & initial species richness modify whether diversity increases, decreases or stays the same over time #jambio
November 26, 2024 at 5:38 PM
.@mioconnor Ecological knowledge key in understanding the future of change in marine biodiversity #jambio
November 26, 2024 at 5:38 PM
.@mioconnor Most biodiversity timeseries associated with pristine sites, may bias results of grand global analyses #jambio
November 26, 2024 at 5:27 PM
.@mioconnor - BUT, extinctions & range shifts very real, may lead to biodiversity increases in unimpacted sites #jambio
November 26, 2024 at 5:27 PM
.@mioconnor: We must understand how climate change creates corridors of species movement & novel habitats that shape biodiversity #jambio
November 26, 2024 at 5:27 PM
.@mioconnor: We must think about what our datasets constrain us to say about how humans are shaping the future of biodiversity #jambio
