The microbiota impedes pathogen invasion of the intestinal ecosystem, a phenomenon termed colonization resistance. In an upcoming issue of Cell, Stacy et al. describe host-initiated metabolite pathways that functionally alter the microbiota after primary infection, thereby augmenting colonization resistance to subsequent infection.

Garden compost inoculum leads to microbial bioanodes with potential-independent characteristics [PDF]
Garden compost leachate was used to form microbial bioanodes under polarization at 0.4, 0.2 and +0.1 V/SCE. Current densities were 6.3 and 8.9 A m2 on average at 0.4 and +0.1 V/SCE respectively, with acetate 10 mM.

Rumen microbial (meta)genomics and its application to ruminant production
Meat and milk produced by ruminants are important agricultural products and are major sources of protein for humans. Ruminant production is of considerable economic value and underpins food security in many regions of the world. However, the sector faces

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
