Food or family? How gut microbes respond to diet and phylogeny in two deer species

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Vertebrate herbivores require symbiotic gastrointestinal (GI) microbes to extract energy and nutrients from fibrous and sometimes toxic plant diets. Because GI microbes vary in their relative abundance, function, and degree of specialization, the microbial community depends on both the characteristics of plants consumed and the anatomical ...

Ruminal Planktonic, Weakly, and Tightly Feed-Adhered Bacterial Community as Affected by Two Trichoderma reesei Enzyme Preparations Fed to Lactating Cattle

open access: yesApplied Microbiology
This study evaluates the effects of two Trichoderma reesei exogenous fibrolytic enzyme (EFE) preparations on the taxonomic profile, diversity, relative abundance, and population shifts of three ruminal bacteria fractions of lactating cows: free-floating (

A mixture of quebracho and chestnut tannins drives butyrate-producing bacteria populations shift in the gut microbiota of weaned piglets.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Weaning is a critical period for piglets, in which unbalanced gut microbiota and/or pathogen colonisation can contribute to diseases that interfere with animal performance.

Evaluation of Phaseolus vulgaris lec‐ lpa as Alternative Protein Source on Growth Performances, Health Status, Faecal Minerals and Gut Microbiota in Weaned Piglet's Diet

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
Partial replacement of soybean meal with an innovative Phaseolus vulgaris genotype with low lectin and phytic acid content was evaluated in weaned pigs’ diet. Although piglets fed the bean‐based diet showed reduced growth performance, their health status was preserved, registering lower faecal mineral excretion, suggesting reduced environmental ...

Contrasting Dynamics and Biotic Association Networks in Estuarine Microbenthic Communities Along an Environmental Disturbance Gradient

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
Environmental DNA samples were collected across a time series from six estuaries from the Basque coast experiencing different degrees of disturbance. Prokaryotic communities and their association networks differed depending on the disturbance level, being more stable in less impacted estuaries.

Differential response of digesta- and mucosa-associated intestinal microbiota to dietary insect meal during the seawater phase of Atlantic salmon

open access: yesAnimal Microbiome, 2021
Background Intestinal digesta is commonly used for studying responses of microbiota to dietary shifts, yet evidence is accumulating that it represents an incomplete view of the intestinal microbiota.

Testing the efficacy of surface swab sampling to determine postmortem submersion interval (PMSI), using the microbiome colonization of skeletal remains

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, Volume 70, Issue 4, Page 1261-1273, July 2025.
Abstract Postmortem interval (PMI) estimation contributes valuable information in the medicolegal investigation of decomposed human remains, and estimating the postmortem submersion interval (PMSI) can specifically aid investigations involving victims discovered in aquatic environments.

Detection of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in lizards and their ticks from Hungary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
To investigate the involvement of lizard species in the natural cycle of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) in Hungary, a total of 186 reptiles belonging to three species—126 green lizards (Lacerta viridis), 40 Balkan wall lizards (Podarcis taurica)
