Successional Dynamics of Molecular Ecological Network of Anammox Microbial Communities under Elevated Salinity

Tao Ya et al.

Summary: The study found that high salinity inhibits the performance of anammox, but under low salinity conditions, microbial networks become closer and more complex, serving as a survival strategy. Microbial taxa such as Planctomycetes and Candidatus Kuenenia show increased competitive relationships under 30 g/L NaCl, which may contribute to the deterioration of nitrogen removal. However, the microbial community network tends to gradually adapt to elevated salinity, indicating a potential for resilience.

Indoor heating triggers bacterial ecological links with tap water stagnation during winter: Novel insights into bacterial abundance, community metabolic activity and interactions

Haihan Zhang et al.

Summary: The study found that after stagnation during indoor heating period, water temperature significantly increased and bacterial activity enhanced. The metabolic capacity of bacteria in stagnant water was higher than that of fresh water, and the bacterial metabolic profile changed after stagnation during heating periods.

Both viable and inactivated amoeba spores protect their intracellular bacteria from drinking water disinfection

Zhenzhen He et al.

Summary: The study reveals that dormant amoeba spores in drinking water systems can protect bacteria from disinfection treatment. While disinfection techniques efficiently kill bacteria alone, the presence of bacteria within amoeba spores inhibits their inactivation significantly.

Microbial composition and diversity of drinking water: A full scale spatial-temporal investigation of a city in northern China

Zibo Jing et al.

Summary: The study characterized bacterial communities in DWDS in northern China using high-throughput sequencing, finding no significant differences among the entire bacterial community between different DWDSs, but variations with seasons. Switching water sources may increase the relative abundance of potentially opportunistic pathogens in DWDSs.

Microbial communities of biofilms developed in a chlorinated drinking water distribution system: A field study of antibiotic resistance and biodiversity

Agata Siedlecka et al.

Summary: The study investigated antibiotic resistance and biodiversity in microbial communities attached to inner surfaces of water supply fittings in a chlorinated drinking water distribution system supplied by two independent water treatment plants. Results showed that culturable aerobic antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) were more prevalent in summer, with various antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) detected in biofilms but at low abundances.
