Implementing sponge physiological and genomic information to enhance the diversity of its culturable associated bacteria.

• Adi Lavy, Ray Keren, Markus Haber, Inbar Schwartz, Micha Ilan
• FEMS microbiology ecology
• 2014

In recent years new approaches have emerged for culturing marine environmental bacteria. They include the use of novel culture media, sometimes with very low-nutrient content, and a variety of growth… (More)

Expanded diversity of microbial groups that shape the dissimilatory sulfur cycle

• Karthik Anantharaman, Bela Hausmann, +8 authors Jillian F. Banfield
• The ISME Journal
• 2018

A critical step in the biogeochemical cycle of sulfur on Earth is microbial sulfate reduction, yet organisms from relatively few lineages have been implicated in this process. Previous studies using… (More)

A quick, easy and non‐intrusive method for underwater volume and surface area evaluation of benthic organisms by 3D computer modelling

• Adi Lavy, Gal Eyal, Benjamin Paul Neal, Ray Keren, Yossi Loya, Micha Ilan
• 2015

Culturable associated-bacteria of the sponge Theonella swinhoei show tolerance to high arsenic concentrations

• Ray Keren, Adi Lavy, Boaz Mayzel, Micha Ilan
• Front. Microbiol.
• 2015

Sponges are potent filter feeders and as such are exposed to high fluxes of toxic trace elements, which can accumulate in their body over time. Such is the case of the Red Sea sponge Theonella… (More)

Intermittent Hypoxia and Prolonged Suboxia Measured In situ in a Marine Sponge

• Adi Lavy, Ray Keren, Gitai Yahel, Micha Ilan
• Front. Mar. Sci.
• 2016

High Microbial Abundance (HMA) sponges constitute a guild of suspension-feeding sponges that host vast populations of symbiotic microbes. These symbionts mediate a complex series of biogeochemical… (More)

Single-bacterial genomics validates rich and varied specialized metabolism of uncultivated Entotheonella sponge symbionts.

• Tetsushi Mori, Jackson K. B. Cahn, +15 authors Jörn Piel
• Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
• 2018

Marine sponges are prolific sources of unique bioactive natural products. The sponge Theonella swinhoei is represented by several distinct variants with largely nonoverlapping chemistry. For the… (More)

Increasing the Richness of Culturable Arsenic-Tolerant Bacteria from Theonella swinhoei by Addition of Sponge Skeleton to the Growth Medium

• Ray Keren, Adi Lavy, Micha Ilan
• Microbial Ecology
• 2015

Theonella swinhoei is an arsenic hyper-accumulator sponge, harboring a multitude of associated bacteria. These bacteria reside in the mesohyl, the dense extracellular matrix of the sponge. Previous… (More)

Sponge-associated bacteria mineralize arsenic and barium on intracellular vesicles

• Ray Keren, Boaz Mayzel, +5 authors Micha Ilan
• Nature communications
• 2017

Arsenic and barium are ubiquitous environmental toxins that accumulate in higher trophic-level organisms. Whereas metazoans have detoxifying organs to cope with toxic metals, sponges lack organs but… (More)

Anaerobic conditions and poor nutrient media reveal antibacterial properties of sponge-associated bacteria

• Adi Lavy, Ray Keren, Haber Markus, Inbar Schwartz, Micha Ilan
• 2013

A novel Chromatiales bacterium is a potential sulfide oxidizer in multiple orders of marine sponges.

• Adi Lavy, Ray Keren, +4 authors Micha Ilan
• Environmental microbiology
• 2018

Sponges are benthic filter feeders that play pivotal roles in coupling benthic-pelagic processes in the oceans that involve transformation of dissolved and particulate organic carbon and nitrogen… (More)
