Modulation of Animal Gut Health by Milk Oligosaccharide

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the composition and structural characteristics of MOs across different mammalian species, and elucidates their roles and mechanisms in maintaining intestinal homeostasis by regulating gut microbiome and enhancing intestinal chemical, physical and immune barriers.

Functional diversity in nutrient acquisition by ectomycorrhizal fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Nutrient uptake by boreal forest trees depends upon the symbiotic ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi that colonise more than 95% of the fine roots. In these ecosystems, nitrogen (N) is the most important growth-limiting nutrient for plants, followed by ...

Bioeconomy, sustainability, and digital technologies in Haematococcus lacustris biomass and astaxanthin production: advances and outlook

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Astaxanthin is a carotenoid with strong antioxidant properties, used in research on cancer treatment, ocular injuries, and neurological disorders. When produced by the microalgae Haematococcus lacustris, its antioxidant potential is even higher than that of the synthetic molecule, making it particularly attractive for pharmaceutical and ...

The mycelium of student experiences: Capturing the relational network of transitions as becoming

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract While university student transitions are often framed as processes of becoming, this perspective does not fully capture the multifaceted nature of student transitions. Even approaches that acknowledge the heterogeneity of student experiences and adopt a rhizomatic perspective tend to imply individual autonomy rather than reflect the hyper ...

The decision for or against mycoparasitic attack by Trichoderma spp. is taken already at a distance in a prey-specific manner and benefits plant-beneficial interactions

open access: yesFungal Biology and Biotechnology
Background The application of plant-beneficial microorganisms as bio-fertilizer and biocontrol agents has gained traction in recent years, as both agriculture and forestry are facing the challenges of poor soils and climate change. Trichoderma spp.

Complementary effects of beneficial and non‐beneficial mycorrhizal fungi on root phosphatase activity: A mycorrhizal “White Album” effect

open access: yesFunctional Ecology
Abstract Mycorrhizal fungi are diverse, with strains differing in the magnitude and types of benefits provided to their hosts. In mixture, mycorrhizal strains that have complementary functions could provide their hosts with greater benefits than any constituent strain in isolation. Conversely, mycorrhizal strains could also interfere with one another,

Induction and Enhancement of Bacteriocin Production (Review)

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventionally, bacteriocins are produced by microorganisms on complex substrates, released as semi‐purified preparations or crude fermentates. These bacteriocin‐containing products often exhibit unsatisfactory purity, low active‐substance content, and high production costs, limiting their commercialization and use. This review aims to analyze

Everybody was Fungus Fighting: Examining the symbiotic interactions between Ericaceous plants and their beneficial fungal partnerships with Ericoid mycorrhizal fungi and Trichoderma harzianum

open access: yes, 2020
Honors Thesis Spring 2020Mycorrhizal fungi form mutually beneficial partnerships with the roots of nearly all plants. The plants provide carbohydrates to the fungi while the fungi increase the surface area in the network of roots, which increases the ...
