  • Diversity structure of the microbial communities in the guts of four neotropical termite species 
    Vikram, Surendra; Arneodo, Joel D.; Calcagno, Javier; Ortiz, Maximiliano; Mon, Maria Laura; Etcheverry, Clara; Cowan, Don A.; Talia, Paola (PeerJ, 2021-04-07)
    The termite gut microbiome is dominated by lignocellulose degrading microorganisms. This study describes the intestinal microbiota of four Argentinian higher termite species with different feeding habits: Microcerotermes ...
  • Microbial nitrogen cycling in antarctic soils 
    Ortiz, Maximiliano; Bosch, Jason; Coclet, Clement; Johnson, Jenny; Lebre, Pedro H.; Salawu-Rotimi, Adeola; Vikram, Surendra; Makhalanyane, Thulani Peter; Cowan, Don A. (MDPI, 2020-09)
    The Antarctic continent is widely considered to be one of the most hostile biological habitats on Earth. Despite extreme environmental conditions, the ice-free areas of the continent, which constitute some 0.44% of the ...
  • Neotropical termite microbiomes as sources of novel plant cell wall degrading enzymes 
    Victorica, Matias Romero; Soria, Marcelo A.; Batista-Garcia, Ramon Alberto; Ceja-Navarro, Javier A.; Vikram, Surendra; Ortiz, Maximiliano; Ontanon, Ornella; Ghio, Silvina; Martínez-Avila, Liliana; Quintero García, Omar Jasiel; Etcheverry, Clara; Campos, Eleonora; Cowan, Don A.; Arneodo, Joel; Talia, Paola M. (Nature Publishing Group, 2020-03-02)
    In this study, we used shotgun metagenomic sequencing to characterise the microbial metabolic potential for lignocellulose transformation in the gut of two colonies of Argentine higher termite species with different ...
