RNA-seq sheds light on “who is doing what” in the coral Porites lutea [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiome
Background The coral holobiont functions as a complex biogeochemical system, sustained by intricate metabolic exchanges between the host and its associated microbiome.

Organic Connection of Holobiont Components and the Essential Roles of Core Microbes in the Holobiont Formation of Feral Brassica napus

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Brassica napus (Rapeseed) is an econfomically important oil-producing crop. The microbial interactions in the plant holobiont are fundamental to the understanding of plant growth and health. To investigate the microbial dynamics in the holobiont of feral

A community perspective on the concept of marine holobionts: current status, challenges, and future directions [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Host-microbe interactions play crucial roles in marine ecosystems. However, we still have very little understanding of the mechanisms that govern these relationships, the evolutionary processes that shape them, and their ecological consequences.

Gut microbiome structure and adrenocortical activity in dogs with aggressive and phobic behavioral disorders

open access: yesHeliyon, 2020
Accompanying human beings since the Paleolithic period, dogs has been recently regarded as a reliable model for the study of the gut microbiome connections with health and disease.

Species-specific viromes in the ancestral holobiont Hydra. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Recent evidence showing host specificity of colonizing bacteria supports the view that multicellular organisms are holobionts comprised of the macroscopic host in synergistic interdependence with a heterogeneous and host-specific microbial community ...

Corals and Sponges Under the Light of the Holobiont Concept: How Microbiomes Underpin Our Understanding of Marine Ecosystems

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
In the past 20 years, a new concept has slowly emerged and expanded to various domains of marine biology research: the holobiont. A holobiont describes the consortium formed by a eukaryotic host and its associated microorganisms including bacteria ...

Impact of lignans in oilseed mix on gut microbiome composition and enterolignan production in younger healthy and premenopausal women: an in vitro pilot study

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2020
Background Dietary lignans belong to the group of phytoestrogens together with coumestans, stilbenes and isoflavones, and themselves do not exhibit oestrogen-like properties.

Conceptualization of the Holobiont Paradigm as It Pertains to Corals

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Corals’ obligate association with unicellular dinoflagellates, family Symbiodiniaceae form the foundation of coral reefs. For nearly a century, researchers have delved into understanding the coral-algal mutualism from multiple levels of resolution and ...

The Intra-Dependence of Viruses and the Holobiont

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Animals live in symbiosis with the microorganisms surrounding them. This symbiosis is necessary for animal health, as a symbiotic breakdown can lead to a disease state.

The roles and interactions of symbiont, host and environment in defining coral fitness. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND: Reef-building corals live in symbiosis with a diverse range of dinoflagellate algae (genus Symbiodinium) that differentially influence the fitness of the coral holobiont.
