Industrialization drives convergent microbial and physiological shifts in the human metaorganism [PDF]
Summary Understanding how host lifestyle and industrialization shape the human gut microbiome and intestinal physiology requires multimodal analyses across diverse global host contexts. Here, we generate multivariate data from the Global Microbiome Conservancy cohort, including gut microbiome, IgA-sequencing, host genotyping, diet ...

Prospecting Microbial Strains for Bioremediation and Probiotics Development for Metaorganism Research and Preservation [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2019 Pollution affects all biomes. Marine environments have been particularly impacted, especially coral reefs, one of the most sensitive ecosystems on Earth. Globally, 4.5 billion people are economically dependent on the sea, where most of their livelihood is provided by coral reefs.

Microbial Species Coexistence Depends on the Host Environment [PDF]
mBio, 2020 Organisms and their resident microbial communities form a complex and mostly stable ecosystem. It is known that the specific composition and abundance of certain bacterial species affect host health and fitness, but the processes that lead to these ...

Distinct bacterial communities associated with the coral model Aiptasia in aposymbiotic and symbiotic states with Symbiodinium [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016 Coral reefs are in decline. The basic functional unit of coral reefs is the coral metaorganism or holobiont consisting of the cnidarian host animal, symbiotic algae of the genus Symbiodinium, and a specific consortium of bacteria (among others), but ...

A step closer to understanding how a diet high in simple carbohydrates may cause dysbiosis [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical InvestigationThe gut microbiota is an integral part of the human metaorganism that is required to shape physiologic host immune responses including host defense against pathogens. Disease-associated gut dysbiosis has been characterized by blooms of pathobionts, which
