Transcriptomic and rRNA:rDNA signatures of environmental vs. enteric Enterococcus faecalis isolates under oligotrophic freshwater conditions

B. Suttner, M. Kim, E. R. Johnston, L. Orellana, C. A. Ruiz-Perez, L. M. Rodriguez-R, J. Hatt, J. Brown, J. W. Santo Domingo, K. T. Konstantinidis

This study compares survival strategies of environmental and enteric E. faecalis isolates under freshwater conditions, finding similar decay rates but distinct rRNA:rDNA ratios and limited evidence of habitat adaptation.

A Novel Droplet Digital PCR Human mtDNA Assay for Global Fecal Source Tracking

K. Zhu, B. Suttner, K. T. Konstantinidis, J. Brown

This paper develops a ddPCR assay for human mtDNA to track fecal sources, finding it more sensitive than a common bacterial marker in human feces from three regions.
