Lithium (Li) is becoming increasingly important due to its use in clean technologies that are required for the transition to net zero. Although acidophilic bioleaching has been used to recover metals from a wide range of deposits, its potential to recover Li has not yet been fully explored. In this study, we used a model Fe(II)- and S-oxidising bacterium, (At.

Improved understanding of the complex interaction between plant metabolism, environmental conditions and the plant-associated microbiome requires an interdisciplinary approach: Our hypothesis in our multiomics study posited that several environmental and biotic factors have modulating effects on the microbiome and metabolome of the roots of wild plants. Furthermore, we postulated reciprocal interactions between the root metabolome and microbiome. We investigated the metabolic content, the genetic variability, and the prokaryotic microbiome in the root systems of wild plants at rosette and flowering stages across six distinct locations.

Previous studies have reported the role of some species of acidophilic bacteria in accelerating the dissolution of goethite under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. This has relevance for environments impacted by acid mine drainage and for the potential bioleaching of limonitic laterite ores. In this study, natural well-characterized goethite mineral samples and synthetic goethite were used in aerobic and anaerobic laboratory batch culture incubation experiments with ferric iron-reducing, acidophilic bacteria, including the lithoautotrophic species , and , as well as two strains of the organoheterotrophic species .
