Abstract This study uses the Levenberg–Marquardt strategy with feed forward neural networks (LMS-FNN) to inspect the Soret-Dufour effect on radiative hybrid nanofluid flow across a Riga plate with gyrotactic microorgan...

Abstract In this work, the intelligent Levenberg–Marquardt optimization approach is applied to evaluate the activation energy influence on thermo-bioconvection flow of a trihybrid nanofluid including oxytactic microbes...

Abstract Dormancy, as a microbial survival strategy, plays a crucial role in sustaining microbial diversity. However, the large-scale distribution patterns of microbial dormancy and drivers remain poorly understood. Here...

ABSTRACT Microorganisms are expected to play vital roles in the development of sustainable societies, but this idea is still poorly understood by the general public. In addition, it would also be important for the future...

Platanthera transversa is a common orchid in western North America yet it is poorly studied. This makes it difficult to understand the breadth of pollinators and floral attractant mechanisms present, both of which are vi...

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 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...

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...

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...

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, ...

Background. The human gastrointestinal tract contains a large community of microorganisms, known as the gut microbiota. Their metabolic and immunological functions influence host physiology. Disruption of this community,...

Sudden death syndrome (SDS) is a major disease that affects soybean (Glycine max) production, primarily caused by the soilborne fungus Fusarium virguliforme in North America. Understanding the interactions among soybeans...

Abstract Background The microbiome is significant for conservation biology and should be considered in threatened species management programs. Commensal microbes contribute important functions for host health, while path...

Abstract Man-made synthetic/manufactured nano-objects (MNOs) are increasingly used in almost every scientific sector, including pharmaceutical, agricultural, food, and drug industries worldwide. Rapid advances in nanotec...

Brazil’s rich biological legacy makes it a prime location for studying novel microbes due to its favorable characteristics, which support a wide range of biotechnological applications, including the synthesis of metall...
