Recent research into decomposition has shed light on the intricate interplay within multi-kingdom communities, with microbial populations emerging as key players in the breakdown process and emphasizing their interaction...

Abstract The social behaviors of microbes provide unique opportunities for testing social evolution theories. How can altruistic behaviors arise by natural selection is a central challenge in biology. Green-beard effect ...

The composition of the upper respiratory tract (URT) microbiota is shaped by both anatomical niches and host immune defenses. Older adults (>65 years) are at greatest risk of acquiring severe URT infections. However, ver...

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of propolis extract as a natural preservative for livestock products in term of chemical and microbiological characteristics by meta-analysis. The stages carried ou...

Two types of the fungus Trichoderma were chosen, these are T.viride and T.harzianum. The activity of these fungi were tested against different kinds of plant and human pathogenic fungi. After screening , the fungus T.har...

Abstract Soil microbes are essential for ecosystem functioning, affecting soil health and fertility. The microbial diversity present in soil is influenced by diverse land-use practices and environmental conditions; howev...

BackgroundThe research on human microbiota-associated (HMA) animal models is an important tool for studying the human microbiome and holds great potential for elucidating disease mechanisms and microbe-based therapeutic ...

Abstract Background Perinatal depression (PD) is classified into four subtypes: pregnancy, early postpartum, late postpartum, and chronic, based on depressive symptom trajectories, with each subtype potentially involving...

IntroductionChronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an inborn error in immunity that results in increased infectious susceptibility to serious infections, often from catalase-positive organisms, due to defects in the NADP...

Abstract Background The gut microbiome is an ecosystem of microbes that live within the host’s digestive tract and are a vital component of host health. An increasing number of studies are investigating microbiome diff...

ABSTRACT In this study, a mixture of estradiol benzoate, progesterone, and testosterone propionate was injected into Diannan small-ear sows to induce estrus. The 16S rRNA technology was used to comparatively analyze the ...

ABSTRACT Streptococcus gallolyticus subsp. gallolyticus (SGG) is a bacterial pathogen implicated in bacteremia and endocarditis and is often associated with colon tumors in elderly individuals. The development of colorec...

The microbiota of plants is composed of a large diversity of microbes, engaging with their host via various types of interactions, from beneficial to detrimental. Consequently, how plants perceive mutualistic from pathog...

Diet-microbiome relationships are often evaluated using isolated nutrients, yet microbes encounter complex food matrices in which nutrient accessibility and baseline microbial community context jointly shape gut fermenta...

IntroductionRecent research has highlighted the role of the gut microbiome in shaping the development and function of the mammalian immune system. Interactions between these complex networks of microbes and host cells se...

Abstract This trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of overwrap, vacuum, and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on poultry breast fillets' microbiological, biochemical shelf life and sensory attributes. The fillets...

To further implement environmental protection policies on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a wastewater treatment plant at an altitude of 2 200 m with a capacity of 85 000 tons per day was retrofitted by moving bed biofilm rea...

Water contamination is a global issue and different techniques are being devised to reduce water contamination. Among these techniques, use of nanoparticles for water purification is an efficient and cost-effective metho...

The biodiversity and biotechnological potential of microbes from central Argentinean halophilic environments have been poorly explored. Salitral Negro and Colorada Grande salterns are neutral hypersaline basins exploded ...

ABSTRACT This study evaluated the changes in rumen microbiome during the process of age development of farming Guizhou White goats from Southwest China. We conducted high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing to investigat...

Abstract Background Signal divergence and sensory preferences may cause reproductive isolation and eventually speciation between animal populations. These patterns are particularly well known in systems with acoustic or ...

Diet and the gut microbiome are major, interdependent determinants of colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. This review discusses current evidence on how dietary patterns reshape microbial ecology, modulate microbial virulence, ...

In the past years, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have become an important field of research since EVs have been found to play a central role in biological processes. In pathogens, EVs are involved in several events during...
