Seasonal variation in wild pig (Sus scrofa) diet revealed by DNA metabarcoding
Using DNA metabarcoding of fecal samples, we investigated the diet of wild pigs at an extensive bottomland hardwood forest ecosystem within Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge in Southern Arkansas. We found that wild pig diet was highly diverse and included at least 74 plant families and 106 genera and 23 species of vertebrates.

ABSTRACT Atopic dermatitis (AD) essentially exhibits dysbiosis of skin fungal microbiome, mycobiome, characterized by depletion of Malassezia. The effects of recent systemic therapies for AD on skin mycobiome were not understood enough. We examined changes of skin mycobiome before and after systemic treatments with anti‐IL‐4Rα antibody (dupilumab: DUP)

Current knowledge on the biochemical mechanisms underlying microbial steroid metabolism in anaerobic ecosystems is extremely limited. Sulfate, nitrate, and iron [Fe (III)] are common electron acceptors for anaerobes in estuarine sediments.

Dietary resilience of coral reef fishes to habitat degradation
Metabarcoding of gut contents shows that two common benthic‐feeding reef fishes with different feeding stratgies—a butterflyfish (Chaetodon capistratus) and a hamlet (Hypoplectrus puella)—shift diets on degraded reefs. These shifts mirror contrasting patterns in body condition: butterflyfish showed strong individual variation, whereas condition was ...

SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing on Illumina MiSeq Using ARTIC Protocol: Part 2 - Illumina DNA Flex Protocol v1
This protocol is an adaption of several circulating protocols on SARS-CoV-2 sequencing using the ARTIC protocol and the Illumina Nexterra DNA Flex library prep kit. Its purpose is to simplify things for the average state public health laboratory, using equipment and expertise they currently posess, most likely from their funded PulseNet activities ...

Is the endophyte‐based plant protection against aphids mediated by changes in the insect microbiome?
We showed that the fungal endophyte Epichloë strain AR37 increased the plant resistance against aphids via the production of indole diterpene alkaloids. The reduction in aphid performance was not associated with changes in abundance/composition/diversity of the insect's bacterial microbiota, but additional endophyte effects on this microbiota cannot be

The complete mitochondrial genome of the hymenopteran hunting robber fly Dasypogon diadema
The complete mitochondrial genome of Dasypogon diadema (Insecta: Diptera) was sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq` platform. Its mt-genome spans over 16,947 bp with a GC content of 26.6% containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes.
