mBio, 2016 A paradigm shift has recently transformed the field of biological science; molecular advances have revealed how fundamentally important microorganisms are to many aspects of a host’s phenotype and evolution. In the process, an era of “holobiont” research

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Daily environmental oscillations that follow Earth’s rotation around the Sun set a metronome for life, under which all organisms have evolved. Entrainment to these cues allow organisms to rhythmically set the pace of their own endogenous biological ...

What is the hologenome concept of evolution? [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
F1000Research, 2018 All multicellular organisms are colonized by microbes, but a gestalt study of the composition of microbiome communities and their influence on the ecology and evolution of their macroscopic hosts has only recently become possible.

The Complexity of the Holobiont in the Red Sea Coral Euphyllia paradivisa under Heat Stress
Microorganisms, 2020 The recognition of the microbiota complexity and their role in the evolution of their host is leading to the popularization of the holobiont concept. However, the coral holobiont (host and its microbiota) is still enigmatic and unclear.

De novo metatranscriptomic exploration of gene function in the millipede holobiont
Scientific Reports, 2022 Invertebrate–microbial associations are widespread in the biosphere and are often related to the function of novel genes, fitness advantages, and even speciation events.

The sponge holobiont in a changing ocean: from microbes to ecosystems
Microbiome, 2018 The recognition that all macroorganisms live in symbiotic association with microbial communities has opened up a new field in biology. Animals, plants, and algae are now considered holobionts, complex ecosystems consisting of the host, the microbiota ...

A de novo approach to disentangle partner identity and function in holobiont systems
Microbiome, 2018 Background Study of meta-transcriptomic datasets involving non-model organisms represents bioinformatic challenges. The production of chimeric sequences and our inability to distinguish the taxonomic origins of the sequences produced are inherent and ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Reef-building corals owe much of their success to a symbiosis with dinoflagellate microalgae in the genus Symbiodinium. In this association, the performance of each organism is tied to that of its partner, and together the partners form a holobiont that

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 There is a lot of evidence indicating pioneer microbes in early life having various effects on later host biology. Because of the influential phylogenetic position of sea cucumber, which is a deep branching clade in Deuterostomia, the attention on the ...
