A β-glucuronidase (GUS) Based Bacterial Competition Assay to Assess Fine Differences in Fitness during Plant Infection

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2022
Competition assays are a simple phenotyping strategy that confront two bacterial strains to evaluate their relative fitness. Because they are more accurate than single-strain growth assays, competition assays can be used to highlight slight differences ...

GeneDB and Wikidata [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2019
Publishing authoritative genomic annotation data, keeping it up to date, linking it to related information, and allowing community annotation is difficult and hard to support with limited resources. Here, we show how importing GeneDB annotation data into

Producing polished prokaryotic pangenomes with the Panaroo pipeline

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2020
Population-level comparisons of prokaryotic genomes must take into account the substantial differences in gene content resulting from horizontal gene transfer, gene duplication and gene loss.

Much ado about nothing? Off-target amplification can lead to false-positive bacterial brain microbiome detection in healthy and Parkinson’s disease individuals

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2021
Background Recent studies suggested the existence of (poly-)microbial infections in human brains. These have been described either as putative pathogens linked to the neuro-inflammatory changes seen in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD)

Comparison of PCR versus PCR-Free DNA Library Preparation for Characterising the Human Faecal Virome

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The human intestinal microbiota is abundant in viruses, comprising mainly bacteriophages, occasionally outnumbering bacteria 10:1 and is termed the virome.

Presentation: Better Living Through Microbes

open access: yes, 2015
Microbes are all around us and inside of us, but how can they help improve our lives? By studying how microbes live and adapt to their environments, we can gain insight into how to benefit human health, develop new and cheaper products, and other ...

Intestinal inflammation responds to microbial tissue load independent of pathogen/non-pathogen discrimination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The intestinal immune system mounts inflammatory responses to pathogens but tolerates harmless commensal microbiota. Various mechanisms for pathogen/non-pathogen discrimination have been proposed but their general relevance for inflammation control is ...
