Rapid Clearance of Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae Spores by Freshwater Sponge Ephydatia muelleri: Potential Implications for Controlling Proliferative Kidney Disease in Salmonids

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Host–parasite interactions are influenced by both abiotic and biotic factors. While abiotic drivers, particularly temperature, have received considerable attention in recent years due to global climate change, the role of biotic factors remains comparatively underexplored.

First Report of the Malacosporean Parasite Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae in the Faroe Islands Reveals Widespread Distribution and High Prevalence in Brown Trout

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The myxozoan endoparasite Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae (Tb), the causative agent of proliferative kidney disease (PKD) in salmonids, has predominantly been reported in temperate regions of continental Europe and North America. Here, we present the first record of Tb in the Faroe Islands, extending the known northern distribution of the ...

Detection and Genetic Diversity of Heritable Bacterial Symbionts in Human Lice Based on 16S-rRNA Gene. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
Candidatus Riesia pediculicola and Wolbachia were found in 79.6% and 95.2% of head lice, and 81.8% and 100% of body lice. Candidatus Riesia pthiripubis and Wolbachia appeared in 41.7% and 75% of pubic lice. Maximum‐likelihood 16S‐rRNA phylogeny revealed substantial heterogeneity within symbiont populations. ABSTRACT Human lice are obligate bloodsucking

Benthoplanidae, a new family of benthic ctenophores (Platyctenida), based on morphological and genetic data

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
The benthic ctenophore Benthoplana meteoris (adults left and bottom, planktonic juveniles to the top right), type species for the genus, which in turn is type for the newly erected family: Benthoplanidae (Ctenophora, Platyctenida). Abstract We present a phylogenetic analysis of benthic ctenophores of the order Platyctenida, sampling all but one genus ...

Whole genome sequencing of historical specimens from the world's largest fungal collection yields high‐quality assemblies

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary High‐throughput molecular studies of museum specimens (museomics) have great potential in biodiversity research, but fungal historical collections have scarcely been examined, leading to no comprehensive methodological assessments. Here we present a whole genome sequencing (WGS) project conducted at the Fungarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens ...

Climate adaptation and functional constraints drive pollen evolution in Apiales

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Pollen grains exhibit remarkable morphological diversity, shaped by selective pressures from environmental factors and mechanical constraints. Here, we investigate macroevolutionary patterns of pollen morphology in Apiales, an order of angiosperms with significant ecological and geographical diversity, to disentangle the roles of climate and ...

Impacts of Lifestyle and Microbiota‐Targeted Interventions for Overweight and Obesity on the Human Gut Microbiome: A Systematic Review

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
Dietary interventions showed the strongest evidence for improving microbiome composition. Probiotics and prebiotics consistently increased beneficial bacteria. Exercise and fecal microbiota transplantation had limited evidence but showed potential for microbiome modulation.
