Species concepts and speciation factors in cyanobacteria, with connection to the problems of diversity and classification (2015, background): “The possibility of a failed recognition of intermediate forms may also arise due to sampling or difﬁcult cultivability of many bacterial strains, because most bacterial species are unculturable (reviewed in Stewart 2012).”
Microbial siderophores and their potential applications: a review (2016, background): “Proper exploration of the physiology of these bacteria and their roles in ecology, remediation, host health, and natural compound production requires their comfortable cultivation in the artificial growth condition (Stewart 2012).”
Comparative analysis of diversity and environmental niches of soil bacterial, archaeal, fungal and protist communities reveal niche divergences along environmental gradients in the Alps (2021, background): “In soils, many bacteria, archaea and fungi form obligate associations with other taxa (consortia), a fact that is illustrated by the limited number of taxa that can be cultured axenically, as compared with the total diversity (Stewart, 2012; Pande and Kost, 2017).”
The importance of the viable but non-culturable state in human bacterial pathogens (2014, background): “More than 80 bacterial phyla have been identified to date; however, only about half of these have members that can be cultured in the laboratory (Pace, 2009; Stewart, 2012).”
Analysis of the microbiome: Advantages of whole genome shotgun versus 16S amplicon sequencing (2015, background): “These technical advances have been paradigm shiftin g since the majority (>90%) of microbial species cannot be readily cultured using current laboratory culture techniques [11-13].”
Recent progress in biohydrometallurgy and microbial characterisation (2018, methodology): “This method can be laborious and time-consuming and is most useful for samples with relatively low microbial diversity (Connon and Giovanni, 2002; Stewart, 2012).”
Standardisation of quantitative resource conversion studies with black soldier fly larvae (2020, background): “Despite the limitations of culture dependent methodologies, many regulatory agencies require these for monitoring product quality (Stewart, 2012; Theron and Cloete, 2000).”
Minimum entropy decomposition: Unsupervised oligotyping for sensitive partitioning of high-throughput marker gene sequences (2014, background): “…databases limits diversity descriptions because microbiologists have not defined a unified species concept (Gevers et al. , 2005; Doolittle and Zhaxybayeva, 2009) and molecular databases generally lack discrete name assignments for the astonishing number of uncultured microbes (Stewart, 2012).”
