Microbial-driven genetic variation in holobionts
ABSTRACTGenetic variation in holobionts (host and microbiome), occurring in both host and microbiome genomes, can be observed from two perspectives: observable variations and processes that bring about the variation. Observable includes the enormous genetic diversity of prokaryotes, which gave rise to eukaryotes.

What is the hologenome concept of evolution? [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
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.

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

Symbiont diversity is not involved in depth acclimation in the Mediterranean sea whip Eunicella singularis [PDF]
In symbiotic cnidarians, acclimation to depth and lower irradiance can involve physiological changes in the photosynthetic dinoflagellate endosymbiont, such as increased chlorophyll content, or qualitative modifications in the symbiont population in ...

Metatranscriptome analysis of the reef-building coral Orbicella faveolata indicates holobiont response to coral disease [PDF]
White Plague Disease (WPD) is implicated in coral reef decline in the Caribbean and is characterized by microbial community shifts in coral mucus and tissue.

A de novo approach to disentangle partner identity and function in holobiont systems
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 ...

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 ...

Microbial symbionts : a resource for the management of insect-related problems [PDF]
Microorganisms establish with their animal hosts close interactions. They are involved in many aspects of the host life, physiology and evolution, including nutrition, reproduction, immune homeostasis, defence and speciation.

Pojam holobiont odnosi se na jedinku domaćina i pripadajuću mikrobnu zajednicu koji zajedno čine selekcijsku jedinicu. Nastaje procesom simbiogeneze i dalje podliježe evolucijskim procesima. Razlike u mikrobiomu mogle bi biti važan čimbenik u reproduktivnoj izolaciji i specijaciji. Neki od najpoznatijih primjera holobionta su čovjek, koralji i hidra, a
