Experimental Drought Suppresses Amphibian Pathogen Yet Intensifies Transmission and Disrupts Protective Skin Microbiome

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.
This study used ecologically realistic enclosures with pumpkin toadlets to simulate short‐term drought conditions in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. Drought reduced the overall levels of a harmful amphibian fungus, but it also disrupted their protective skin‐associated bacteria and caused the toadlets to cluster in wet areas of the enclosures, which ...

A Scoping Review to Identify Clinical Signs, Symptoms and Biomarkers Reported in the Literature to Be Indicative of Biofilm in Chronic Wounds

International Wound Journal, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT The objective of this review was to identify clinical signs/symptoms reported in the literature to be indicative of biofilm in chronic wounds. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analysis extension for Scoping Reviews, and the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence Synthesis manual guided review conduct.

Comparison of the in vitro antibiofilm activities of otic cleansers against canine otitis externa pathogens

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 148-158, April 2025.
Background – Biofilm production by canine otitis externa (COE) pathogens and resistance development to multiple antimicrobials are commonly reported problems in veterinary practice. The use of adjuvants to disrupt biofilms may be a viable adjunctive therapy.

Comprehensive study reveals phenotypic heterogeneity in Klebsiella pneumoniae species complex isolates

Scientific Reports
Here, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of 356 Klebsiella pneumoniae species complex (KpSC) isolates that were classified as classical (cl), presumptive hypervirulent (p-hv) and hypermucoviscous-like (hmv-like). Overall, K.

Evil and allies: Opportunistic gulls as both spreaders and sentinels of antibiotic‐resistant bacteria in human‐transformed landscapes

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 11, Page 2809-2821, November 2024.
The integration of GPS data, pathogen testing and network analyses can shed further light on pathogen dynamics by creating spatial risk maps and identifying ARB sources. In combination with complementary molecular epidemiology techniques within a One Health framework, our approach can emerge as an important tool for monitoring ARB dynamics within ...

Resistencia bacteriana a los antibióticos

Ciencia e Investigación, 2008
El descubrimiento de la antibiosis "in vitro" y el desarrollo de los antibióticos generó la ilusión del control de las enfermedades infecciosas bacterianas. Sin embargo, tan pronto como estas moléculas maravillosas fuero introducidas en la clínica, casi de inmediato surgieron las cepas bacterianas con resistencia adquirida, como se ha comprobado en las

Microbe‐induced plant resistance against insect pests depends on timing of inoculation but is consistent across climatic conditions

Functional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 848-860, April 2024.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract To cope with abiotic and biotic stressors, plants have developed mutualistic associations with beneficial soil microbes, but little is known about how extreme abiotic conditions impact on microbe‐induce resistance to insect herbivores.
