Adapting to Novel Environments Together: Evolutionary and Ecological Correlates of the Bacterial Microbiome of the World’s Largest Cavefish Diversification (Cyprinidae, Sinocyclocheilus)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The symbiosis between a host and its microbiome is essential for host fitness, and this association is a consequence of the host’s physiology and habitat.

Insights Into the Species-Specific Microbiota of Greenideinae (Hemiptera: Aphididae) With Evidence of Phylosymbiosis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Aphids and their symbionts represent an outstanding model for studies of insect–symbiont interactions. The aphid microbiota can be shaped by aphid species, geography and host plants. However, the relative importance of phylogenetic and ecological factors in shaping microbial community structures is not well understood.

Plant genotype influence the structure of cereal seed fungal microbiome

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Plant genotype is a crucial factor for the assembly of the plant-associated microbial communities. However, we still know little about the variation of diversity and structure of plant microbiomes across host species and genotypes.

Ecological Specialization Within a Carnivorous Fish Family Is Supported by a Herbivorous Microbiome Shaped by a Combination of Gut Traits and Specific Diet

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Animals have been developing key associations with micro-organisms through evolutionary processes and ecological diversification. Hence, in some host clades, phylogenetic distance between hosts is correlated to dissimilarity in microbiomes, a pattern ...

Key features of the genetic architecture and evolution of host-microbe interactions revealed by high-resolution genetic mapping of the mucosa-associated gut microbiome in hybrid mice

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Determining the forces that shape diversity in host-associated bacterial communities is critical to understanding the evolution and maintenance of metaorganisms.

Niche Specialization and Functional Overlap of Bamboo Leaf and Root Microbiota

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Leaves and roots harbor taxonomically diverse bacterial assemblages which enhance plant growth and performance by increasing nutrient supply and resistance to stress. An extensive investigation of bacterial diversity and composition between leaf and root

Geographic origin and host’s phylogeny are predictors of the gut mucosal microbiota diversity and composition in Mediterranean scorpionfishes (Scorpaena spp.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The gut microbiome holds an important role in the health and homeostasis of fishes. However, despite the large diversity and distribution of this vertebrate group, only the intestinal microbiome of a limited number of freshwater and marine fish species ...

Formicine ants swallow their highly acidic poison for gut microbial selection and control

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Animals continuously encounter microorganisms that are essential for health or cause disease. They are thus challenged to control harmful microbes while allowing the acquisition of beneficial microbes.

Phylosymbiosis Impacts Adaptive Traits in Nasonia Wasps

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Phylosymbiosis is defined as microbial community relationships that recapitulate the phylogeny of hosts. As evidence for phylosymbiosis rapidly accumulates in different vertebrate and invertebrate holobionts, a central question is what evolutionary ...

Cryptic Interactions in a Marine Microcosm: Sponges Shape the Microbiome of a Resident Goby. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol
ABSTRACT Microbial symbionts influence ecological and evolutionary processes in their multicellular hosts; yet they remain poorly characterised in marine systems. Sponges host exceptionally diverse microbiomes, potentially providing rich microbial reservoirs for their residents.
