Azole antifungal contaminants disrupt mycorrhizal function and risk agricultural sustainability

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Global food production is increasingly threatened by soil degradation, climate change and the rising costs of synthetic fertilisers. Circular agriculture, which promotes resource reuse, is a promising solution, but using treated wastewater and biosolids in farming introduces risks from emerging contaminants like pharmaceutical residues.

Range‐wide sampling reveals cryptic lineages but largely conserved mycorrhizal associations in the Japanese fairy lantern Thismia kobensis

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The jewel‐like flowers of Thismia are as rare as they are beautiful, often recorded from only a single site per species. Access to 15 populations of T. kobensis has enabled an uncommon, range‐wide assessment of morphology, genetics, and fungal partners. Our analyses showed that T.

Comparative analyses of the results of HLA genes typing by NGS method using different platforms

Медицинская иммунология
Next generation sequencing (NGS) allows high-resolution and allelic HLA-typing. The most common platform is MiSeq (Illumina, USA). Currently, the maintenance of this device is difficult, which has necessitated the search for analogues that are not ...

Exploring the microbial community (microflora) associated with ovine Haemonchus contortus (macroflora) field strains

Scientific Reports, 2017
High-throughput sequencing technology has shown tremendous promise for microbial community composition and diversity. Illumina MiSeq platform was exploited to study the microbial community associated with the different stages of the life-cycle of ovine ...

Alterations of the Gut Microbiome Associated With the Treatment of Hyperuricaemia in Male Rats

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Hyperuricaemia is an important risk factor for many diseases including gout, hypertension, and type II diabetes. The gut microbiota is associated with hyperuricaemia and has also been demonstrated to play significant roles in the effects of drug therapy.

Incorporating environmental DNA metabarcoding for improved benthic biodiversity and habitat mapping

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Seafloor imagery is commonly used to collect information about the distribution of benthic organisms in order to generate habitat and biodiversity maps. Recent advances in genomics (e.g., environmental DNA; eDNA) show potential to complement video surveys for habitat mapping, but there have been few examples testing this.

Bioengineered Bacterial Vesicles and Biomimetic Hybrids Eliminate Biofilms and Balance the Gut Microbiome

Small, EarlyView.
Biomimetic nanocarriers based on liposomes and Myxobacteria outer‐membrane vesicles (OMVs) are effective antibiotic delivery systems. Hybrids have a higher drug loading and can target intracellular pathogens, while OMVs evade immune clearance. Biomimetic nanoantibiotics effectively eliminate the biofilms of Gram‐negative bacteria. Besides, Myxobacteria

Distinct Nasal Microbiome Profiles and Prediction Model for Allergic Rhinitis, Nonallergic Rhinitis, and Healthy Children

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
The alpha and beta diversity of the nasal microbiome differed among children with allergic rhinitis (AR), nonallergic rhinitis (NAR), and healthy controls (HCs). Compared to HC, AR had more Escherichia‐Shigella, Negativicoccus, and Campylobacter, while NAR had more Dolosigranulum and fewer Enterobacteriaceae.
