Epidemic dynamics of respiratory syncytial virus in current and future climates

Nature Communications, 2019
Climate affects dynamics of infectious diseases, but the impact on respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) epidemiology isn’t well understood. Here, Baker et al.

Anti Microbial Resistance Profile of E. coli isolates From Tropical Free Range Chickens [PDF]

, 2005
Normal intestinal flora of humans and animals constitute enormous reservoir of resistance genes for potentially pathogenic bacteria and may serve as major indictors of selection pressure exerted by anti-microbial use in a given population.

Ecology and Evolutionary Biology as Frameworks to Study Wine Fermentations

Microbial Biotechnology
Winemaking has leveraged microbiology to enhance wine quality, typically by engineering and inoculating individual yeast strains with desirable traits. However, yeast strains do not grow alone during wine fermentation, rather they are embedded in diverse

A synthetic microbial consortium protects against obesity by regulating vitamin B6 metabolism

Gut Microbes
Constructing synthetic microbial consortia is a challenging task but holds enormous potential for various applications. Our previous droplet-based microfluidic approach allowed for the isolation of bacteria that could utilize metabolites from an ...

Parallel changes in gut microbiome composition and function in parallel local adaptation and speciation [PDF]

, 2019
The processes of local adaptation and ecological speciation are often strongly shaped by biotic interactions such as competition and predation. One of the strongest lines of evidence that biotic interactions drive evolution comes from repeated divergence

MICROBIAL ECOLOGY OF SOILS FROM WILKES LAND, ANTARCTICA : I. THE BACTERIAL POPULATION AND ITS ACTIVITY IN RELATION TO DISSOLVED ORGANIC MATTER (Eleventh Symposium on Polar Biology)

MICROBIAL ECOLOGY OF SOILS FROM WILKES LAND, ANTARCTICA : I. THE BACTERIAL POPULATION AND ITS ACTIVITY IN RELATION TO DISSOLVED ORGANIC MATTER (Eleventh Symposium on Polar Biology)
During a comprehensive research program carried out on soils from the Antarctic Continent (Casey Station, Wilkes Land) emphasis was laid on the bacterial population, its state of activity and corresponding relationships to particulate and dissolved organic nutrients. The bacterial population is characterized by epifluorescence microscopy with regard to
