Cadmium‐tolerant bacteria: current trends and applications in agriculture
Letters in Applied Microbiology, Volume 74, Issue 3, Page 311-333, March 2022., 2022 Significance and Impact of the Study: Crop production is adversely affected by the presence of heavy metals in soils dedicated to agriculture. These metals ultimately accumulate in seeds or edible parts and enter the human food chain. The application of cadmium (Cd)‐tolerant bacteria capacities for Cd immobilization and sequestration, in combination ...

Habitat shapes diversity of gut microbiomes in a wild population of blue tits Cyanistes caeruleus
Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2022, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022 Microbiome constitutes an important axis of individual variation that, together with genes and the environment, influences an individual's physiology and fitness. Microbiomes are dependent not only on an individual's body condition but also on external factors, such as diet or stress levels, and as such can be involved into feedbacks between the ...

Periodontology 2000, Volume 87, Issue 1, Page 76-93, October 2021., 2021 Abstract The oral microbiome is a community of microorganisms, comprised of bacteria, fungi, viruses, archaea, and protozoa, that form a complex ecosystem within the oral cavity. Although minor perturbations in the environment are frequent and compensable, major shifts in the oral microbiome can promote an unbalanced state, known as dysbiosis ...

Protein Science, Volume 30, Issue 9, Page 1904-1918, September 2021., 2021 Abstract Intracellular growth and pathogenesis of Chlamydia species is controlled by the availability of tryptophan, yet the complete biosynthetic pathway for l‐Trp is absent among members of the genus. Some representatives, however, preserve genes encoding tryptophan synthase, TrpAB – a bifunctional enzyme catalyzing the last two steps in l‐Trp ...

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1762-1768, September 2021., 2021 DNAs of Theileria sergenti/orientalis/buffelli and Ehrlichia canis were detected for the first time in ruminant abortion products. The 51% of analyzed samples resulted positive for at least one of the pathogens searched and the 40% of samples resulted co‐infected. Positive and statistically significant index of co‐infection (Ic) were detected in double

Method for cryopreservation of Paramoeba perurans
Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 739-745, June 2021., 2021 Abstract Paramoeba perurans causes amoebic gill disease (AGD), which is a major problem in aquaculture worldwide. The parasite can be cultured in vitro, but to this date, no method for long‐term storage of the clones exists. In this study, we describe a method for cryopreservation of Paramoeba perurans.

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 90, Issue 4, Page 989-1003, April 2021., 2021 Emerging evidence points to the gut microbiota as an important factor influencing host health. In wild birds, the authors show that a less diverse microbiota early in development is associated with larger‐than expected weight at a later development stage.
