Eubiosis and dysbiosis: the two sides of the microbiota [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The microbial ecosystem of the gastrointestinal tract is characterized by a great number of microbial species living in balance by adopting mutualistic strategies. The eubiosis/dysbiosis condition of the gut microbiota strongly influences our healthy and

Diversity, transfer potential, and transcriptional activity of virus‐carried antibiotic resistance genes in global estuaries

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Estuaries are vital hotspots for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) due to substantial antibiotic pollution. Although viruses have been proposed as key reservoirs and important disseminators of ARGs in environments, their contribution to the estuarine antibiotic resistome remains largely unknown.

Speculations on the clinical significance of asymptomatic viral infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A detailed understanding of asymptomatic chronic viral infections is critical to analyse their pathogenesis, assess the severity and burden of disease and, where required, optimize public health control measures.

Resistome flow in global landfill systems

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Global landfill systems represent key hubs of resistome, serving as dynamic reservoirs and amplifiers through plasmid‐driven gene mobility. Waste flows and environmental pathways sustain the transboundary resistome networks, accelerating resistance dissemination across ecosystems.

The Revival of the Battle between David and Goliath in the Enteric Viruses and Microbiota Struggle: Potential Implication for Celiac Disease

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
The human gut is inhabited by overcrowded prokaryotic communities, a major component of which is the virome, comprised of viruses, bacteriophages, archaea, eukaryotes and bacteria.

Commentary : Bacteriophage transfer during faecal microbiota transplantation in Clostridium difficile infection is associated with treatment outcome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been used as a treatmentof last resort for recurrent C. difficile infections (CDI) with a cure rate of 85–90% after the first FMT (van Nood et al., 2013; Jiang et al., 2017).

Bridging the gap: improving methodologies for future avian microbiome research

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.
Recent advances in the field of wild avian microbiome research have significantly deepened our understanding of the eco‐evolutionary dynamics of bird–microbe interactions. Consequently, the field is now approaching a pivotal moment in uncovering the ultimate factors shaping avian microbiome structure, especially in relation to birds' ecological ...

Therapeutic Potential of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation for Male Sexual Dysfunction: Evidence and Clinical Perspectives

open access: yesMicrobiota Medicine Research, Volume 1, Issue 1, Page 12-24, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), a microbiome‐based therapy, shows potential in treating male sexual dysfunction. Research into the influence of FMT on male sexual function has recently garnered increasing attention. This review aims to explore the impact of FMT on male sexual function and the underlying mechanisms, and to analyze the ...

Characterization of the phyllosphere virome of fresh vegetables and potential transfer to the human gut

open access: yesNature Communications
Fresh vegetables harbor diverse microorganisms on leaf surfaces, yet their viral communities remain unexplored. We investigate the diversity and ecology of phyllosphere viromes of six leafy green vegetables using virus-like particle (VLP) enrichment and ...
