Bacterial community analysis of treponeme-associated hoof disease in free-ranging elk (<i>Cervus canadensis</i>): evidence for a polybacterial etiology with geographic consistency. [PDF]

Appl Environ Microbiol
Treponeme-associated hoof disease (TAHD) is an emerging infectious disease in free-ranging elk (Cervus canadensis) characterized by ulcerative and necrosuppurative pododermatitis with spirochete bacteria that leads to lameness and apparent increased ...

Insights into the occurrence of phylosymbiosis and co-phylogeny in the holobionts of octocorals from the Mediterranean Sea and Red Sea. [PDF]

Anim Microbiome
Background Corals are the foundational species of coral reefs and coralligenous ecosystems. Their success has been linked to symbioses with microorganisms, and a coral host and its symbionts are therefore considered a single entity, called the holobiont.

Analysis of the core bacterial community associated with consumer-ready Eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica).

PLoS ONE, 2023
Shellfish, such as the Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica), are an important agricultural commodity. Previous research has demonstrated the importance of the native microbiome of oysters against exogenous challenges by non-native pathogens.
