Molecular tools in rhizosphere microbiology—from single-cell to whole-community analysis (2009, background): “2007); and the functional gene microarrays for detection and analysis of specific protein-encoding (functional) genes (Wagner et al. 2007; Ward et al. 2007; He et al. 2007).”
Microbial community profiling for human microbiome projects: Tools, techniques, and challenges. (2009, methodology): “DNA microarrays such as the PhyloChip (Wilson et al. 2002) and GeoChip (He et al. 2007) provide a convenient way of screening 16S rRNA and functional gene sequence libraries, respectively.”
Culture-independent molecular tools for soil and rhizosphere microbiology (2013, background): “After 17 years since its first appearance, microarray techniques have evolved in gigantic steps [139–141].”
Molecular Techniques to Assess Microbial Community Structure, Function, and Dynamics in the Environment (2011, background): “For instance, an FGA termed GeoChip contains >24,000 probes from all known metabolic genes involved in various biogeochemical, ecological, and environmental processes such as ammonia oxidation, methane oxidation, and nitrogen fixation (He et al. 2007).”
Rhizosphere microbiome assemblage is affected by plant development (2013, methodology): “In soils, functional microarrays or GeoChip that target specific microbial functions have been successfully used to determine the metabolic potential of the microbial communities (He et al., 2007, 2011; Bai et al., 2013; Zhang et al., 2013).”
The unseen majority: soil microbes as drivers of plant diversity and productivity in terrestrial ecosystems. (2008, background): “…Straalen & Roelofs 2006) and the use of microarrays to detect key genes responsible for important ecosystem processes (e.g. nitrogen fixation; denitrification; decomposition; phosphorus acquisition) are essential in this respect (e.g. see He et al. 2007 for the description of such a micro-array).”
Recent Advances in Microbial Metal Bioaccumulation (2013, background): “Recently, a novel comprehensive microarray (GeoChip) containing 424,000 gene probes and covering 410,000 genes in 4,150 functional groups involved in nitrogen, carbon, sulfur, and phosphorus cycling, metal reduction, and resistance, and organic contaminant degradation was developed (He et al., 2007)”
Structural and functional diversity of soil bacterial and fungal communities following woody plant encroachment in the southern Great Plains. (2010, methodology): “…in organic contaminant degradationwere detected with the greatest abundance, followed by those related to metal resistance, nitrogen cycling, and the degradation of carbon compounds and strongly reflect the number of probes, from each category, that are contained within the array (He et al., 2007).”
Stochasticity, succession, and environmental perturbations in a fluidic ecosystem (2014, methodology): “functional gene structure as described elsewhere (34, 35, 61).”
Stochastic Community Assembly: Does It Matter in Microbial Ecology? (2017, methodology): “After 2 months, the functional community structures determined by using a functional gene array, GeoChip (44, 69, 244, 245), were dramatically different among 14 replicate reactors that were operated under identical conditions with the same source community.”
