Phenotypic heterogeneity of capsule production across opportunistic pathogens [PDF]
Phenotypic heterogeneity allows bacteria to adapt fast to changing environments. Extracellular capsules are well-known virulence factors, but also increase the cell adaptability and prevalence under hostile conditions.

Fungal commensalism modulated by a dual-action phosphate transceptor
Summary: Successful host colonization by fungi in fluctuating niches requires response and adaptation to multiple environmental stresses. However, our understanding about how fungal species thrive in the gastrointestinal (GI) ecosystem by combing ...

Studies in the Liocranidae (Araneae): revision of Andromma Simon, 1893
The genus Andromma Simon, 1893 is revised. The type species A. aethiopicum Simon, 1893 (♂♀) and the other three known species, A. anochetorum Simon, 1909 (♂), A. bouvieri Fage, 1936 (♀) and A. raffrayi Simon, 1899 (♂♀), are redescribed. The types of the

Assessing Commensality in Research [PDF]
This scoping review focuses on the assessment of commensality in research and attempts to identify used methods for performing research on commensality. It reflects a multidisciplinary research field and draws on findings from Web of Science Core Collection, up to April 2019. The empirical material consisted of 61 studies, whereof most were qualitative

Amphipods are widespread in the marine environment, and some have adopted a symbiotic lifestyle, such as numerous species of the genus Leucothoe (Leach, 1814). Unfortunately, few examples of such a relationship are known for the Mediterranean Sea. In the

Vertebrate animals are known to consume other species' faeces, yet the role of such coprophagy in species dynamics remains unknown, not least due to the methodological challenges of documenting it. In a large‐scale metabarcoding study of red fox and pine
