Succession in the caecal microbiota of developing broilers colonised by extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli

Animal Microbiome, 2022
Background Broilers are among the most common and dense poultry production systems, where antimicrobials have been used extensively to promote animal health and performance.

Multimodal Aposematic Signals and Their Emerging Role in Mate Attraction

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Chemically defended animals often display conspicuous color patterns that predators learn to associate with their unprofitability and subsequently avoid.

Propagule pressure increase and phylogenetic diversity decrease community’s susceptibility to invasion

BMC Ecology, 2017
Background Invasions pose a large threat to native species, but the question of why some species are more invasive, and some communities more prone to invasions than others, is far from solved.

Environmental interference of plant−microbe interactions

Plant, Cell & Environment, 2022
AbstractEnvironmental stresses can compromise the interactions of plants with beneficial microbes. In the present review, experimental results showing that stresses negatively affect the abundance and/or functionality of plant beneficial microbes are summarized.

Invasion triple trouble: environmental fluctuations, fluctuation-adapted invaders and fluctuation-mal-adapted communities all govern invasion success

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background It has been suggested that climate change will lead to increased environmental fluctuations, which will undoubtedly have evolutionary consequences for all biota.

Systemic colonization of clover (Trifolium repens) by Clostridium botulinum strain 2301

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
In recent years, cases of botulism in cattle and other farm animals and also in farmers increased dramatically. It was proposed, that these cases could be affiliated with the spreading of compost or other organic manures contaminated with Clostridium ...

Fungal-mediated consolidated bioprocessing: the potential of Fusarium oxysporum for the lignocellulosic ethanol industry

AMB Express, 2016
Microbial bioprocessing of lignocellulose to bioethanol still poses challenges in terms of substrate catabolism. The most important challenge is to overcome substrate recalcitrance and to thus reduce the number of steps needed to biorefine lignocellulose.

Bioinoculants as a means of increasing crop tolerance to drought and phosphorus deficiency in legume-cereal intercropping systems

Communications Biology, 2023
Ensuring plant resilience to drought and phosphorus (P) stresses is crucial to support global food security. The phytobiome, shaped by selective pressures, harbors stress-adapted microorganisms that confer host benefits like enhanced growth and stress ...
