Regional and oyster microenvironmental scale heterogeneity in the Pacific oyster bacterial community. [PDF]
, 2020 Different organs of a host represent distinct microenvironments resulting in the establishment of multiple discrete bacterial communities within a host. These discrete bacterial communities can also vary according to geographical location.

Host-microbe symbiosis and coevolution in coral reef invertebrates [PDF]
, 2022 Paul O'Brien used the topic of coevolution to study the microbiome of coral reef invertebrates. He found that a) the evolutionary history of the host is reflected in the microbiome, b) a subset of microbial species display strong patterns of cophylogeny,

Prevalence Rates ofBorrelia burgdorferi(Spirochaetales: Spirochaetaceae),Anaplasma phagocytophilum(Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae), andBabesia microti(Piroplasmida: Babesiidae) in Host-SeekingIxodes scapularis(Acari: Ixodidae) from Pennsylvania [PDF]
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2015 AbstractThe etiological agents responsible for Lyme disease (Borrelia burgdorferi), human granulocytic anaplasmosis (Anaplasma phagocytophilum), and babesiosis (Babesia microti) are primarily transmitted by the blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularisSay. Despite Pennsylvania having in recent years reported the highest number of Lyme disease cases in the ...
