Analysis of Microbial Diversity and Evidence of Contamination at a Mars Analogue Habitat

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
We assessed the potential of a crewed mission to Mars to microbially contaminate the surface by studying a terrestrial analogue facility, the Mars Desert Research Station. DNA sequencing of interior swabs and an external soil sample allowed us to characterise the microbiomes present.

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Cytisus scoparius*

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 7, Page 1877-1933, July 2025.
Broom is an attractive and common native plant across Britain, Ireland and most of Europe, and yet it is considered a harmful and invasive weed around the rest of the world. This is aided by broom thriving on poor dry soils, helped by using green stems for photosynthesis and having root nodules to fix nitrogen.

The mycobiota of faeces from the critically endangered kākāpō and associated nest litter

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 171-192, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The critically endangered kākāpō is a flightless, nocturnal parrot endemic to Aotearoa New Zealand. During the 2019 breeding season multiple kākāpō on Whenua Hou, an island with one of the largest kākāpō populations, contracted the respiratory fungal disease aspergillosis.

Impact of Gut Mycobiota Composition on Outcomes after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

Blood, 2019
Alterations of gut bacterial microbiota composition have been associated with outcome after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT), including overall survival (OS), graft versus host disease (GVHD) and relapse incidence . Furthermore, the role of eukaryotic gut virome in GVHD was recently shown (Legoff et al., Nature Medicine, 2017 ...

Antibodies and Inflammation: Fecal Biomarkers of Gut Health in Domestic Ruminants

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 343, Issue 4, Page 468-479, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal infections present major challenges to ruminant livestock systems, and gut health is a key constraint on fitness, welfare, and productivity. Fecal biomarkers present opportunities to monitor animal health without using invasive methods, and with greater resolution compared to observational metrics.

Interaction between intestinal mycobiota and microbiota shapes lung inflammation

iMeta
Gut microbiota is an intricate microbial community containing bacteria, fungi, viruses, archaea, and protozoa, and each of them contributes to diverse aspects of host health.

Leveraging Organ‐on‐Chip Models to Investigate Host–Microbiota Dynamics and Targeted Therapies for Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 10, April 15, 2025.
The challenges of studying inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), highlighting limitations of traditional 2D cell cultures and animal models are discussed here. It introduces human intestine organ‐on‐chip (OoC) models as a promising alternative, capable of more accurately mimicking the intestinal microenvironment.

Fungi in the Gut Microbiota: Interactions, Homeostasis, and Host Physiology

Microorganisms
The mammalian gastrointestinal tract is a stage for dynamic inter-kingdom interactions among bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa, which collectively shape the gut micro-ecology and influence host physiology. Despite being a modest fraction, the fungal
