| seasonal and spatial variations in microbial community structure and diversity in the acid stream draining across an ongoing surface mining site. | this study examined the microbial community in an acidic stream draining across the yun-fu pyrite mine (guangdong, china), where extremely acidic mine water is a persistent feature due to the intensive surface mining activities. analysis of terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (trflp) of 16s rrna gene sequences showed that microbial populations varied spatially and seasonally and correlated with geochemical and physical conditions. after the stream moves from underground to the surf ... | 2009 | 19678846 |
| microbial communities in acid water environments of two mines, china. | to understand the compositions and structures of microbial communities in different acid-aqueous environments, a pcr-based cloning approach was used. a total of five samples were collected from two mines in china. two samples, named as g1 and g2, were acid mine drainage (amd) samples and from yunfu sulfide mine in guangdong province, china. the rest of the three samples named as d1, dy and d3, were from three sites undertaking bioleaching in yinshan lead-zinc mine in jiangxi province, china. phy ... | 2009 | 18976840 |
| archaeal diversity in acid mine drainage from dabaoshan mine, china. | three acid mine drainage (amd) samples collected from dabaoshan mine (guangdong province, china) were studied. in addition to physicochemical analyses, the diversity and community structures of the archaeal communities in these samples were described at the genetic level by amplified ribosomal dna restriction analysis (ardra). nine different ardra patterns were obtained from 146 clones and were studied as operational taxonomic units (otus), which were re-amplified and sequenced. sequence data an ... | 2008 | 18702068 |
