Biologically Induced Mineralization by Bacteria (2003, background): “Geobacter metallireducens and Shewanella putrefaciens are the most studied of this group and are phylogenetically associated with the δ- and γ-subdivisions, respectively, of the Proteobacteria (Myers and Nealson 1990; Lovley et al. 1993; Lonergan et al. 1996).”
Bacterial Iron Oxidation in Circumneutral Freshwater Habitats: Findings from the Field and the Laboratory (2004, background): “In freshwater environments, surface waters and upper sediment layers in wetlands, are typically thought of as the common habitats for these organisms; while this is true, FeOB are far more wide-ranging than this (Ghiorse and Ehrlich 1993; Emerson 2000).”
Returning to Their Roots: Iron-Oxidizing Bacteria Enhance Short-Term Plaque Formation in the Wetland-Plant Rhizosphere (2007, background): “It is methodologically difficult to study these FeOB in situ because there are no known specific inhibitors for microbial Fe(II) oxidation, and both stable and radioisotope techniques have unresolved issues (Roden and Lovley 1993; Emerson 2000; Bullen et al. 2001; Croal et al. 2004).”
Magnetite as a prokaryotic biomarker: A review (2010, background): “…[Bazylinski and Moskowitz, 1997]), (2) lithotrophic or phototrophic Fe(II) oxidation [Widdel et al., 1993; Heising and Schink, 1998; Heising et al., 1999; Emerson, 2000; Straub et al., 2001; Ehrlich and Newman, 2008], and (3) dissimilatory Fe(III) reduction [Lovley, 1987; Nealson and Myers,…”
Anaerobic Metabolism: Linkages to Trace Gases and Aerobic Processes (2003, background): “At a pH of 6 or 7, Fe(II) will often be in the form of FeCO3, and Fe(III) will be in the form of an insoluble amorphous hydroxide, such as Fe(OH)3 or FeOOH, which removes the product from the solution (Emerson, 2000).”
Fe(III) mineral formation and cell encrustation by the nitrate‐dependent Fe(II)‐oxidizer strain BoFeN1 (2005, background): “Micro-organisms can catalyse the aerobic oxidation of Fe(II) at acidic (Wood, 1988; Blake et al ., 1993; Blake & Johnson, 2000) and neutral pH (Hanert, 1981; Wood, 1988; Emerson & Revsbech, 1994; Emerson, 2000) and successfully compete with chemical oxidation.”
Diversity of Ferrous Iron-Oxidizing, Nitrate-Reducing Bacteria and their Involvement in Oxygen-Independent Iron Cycling (2004, background): “Acidophilic or neutrophilic bacteria that gain energy from the oxidation of ferrous iron with oxygen as electron acceptor are widespread and have been studied for many decades (reviewed by Blake and Johnson 2000; Emerson 2000).”
Characterization of Neutrophilic Fe(II)-Oxidizing Bacteria Isolated from the Rhizosphere of Wetland Plants and Description of Ferritrophicum radicicola gen. nov. sp. nov., and Sideroxydans paludicola sp. nov. (2007, background): “The microbial denizens of these habitats include Leptothrix ochracea and Gallionella ferruginea, organisms that have been commonly described based on the unique morphologies of the Fe-oxides that they produce (Emerson 2000).”
Enumeration of Fe(II)-oxidizing and Fe(III)-reducing bacteria in the root zone of wetland plants: Implications for a rhizosphere iron cycle (2003, background): “1997), there is little known about the exact mechanism of heterotrophic Fe(II) oxidation (Emerson 2000) and, to our knowledge, no studies have examined their natural abundances or potential rates of iron oxidation.”
Use of Ferric and Ferrous Iron Containing Minerals for Respiration by Desulfitobacterium frappieri (2003, background): “The role of nitrate-reducing bacteria in the oxidative part of the iron cycle has also been the subject of a number of recent studies (Emerson 2000; Straub et al. 2001).”
Characterization of a Neutrophilic, Chemolithoautotrophic Fe(II)-Oxidizing β -Proteobacterium from Freshwater Wetland Sediments (2004, background): “However, until recently, the cultured neutrophilic FeOB were limited to the lithotrophic bacterium Gallionella ferruginea and the heterotrophic sheathed bacteria of the Leptothrix-Sphaerotilus group within the β-proteobacteria (Emerson 2000).”
