Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023 Our objective was to characterize species‐specific and individual‐specific abundance patterns in the fecal microbiota of herbivores and carnivores, represented by wildebeests (Connochaetes taurinus) and tigers (Panthera tigris). In order to identify individual variations, we applied two different clustering algorithms with and without prior dynamic ...

Site-specific response of sediment microbial community to supplementation of polyhydroxyalkanoates as biostimulants for PCB reductive dechlorination [PDF]
, 2023 The use of biodegradable plastics is constantly raising, increasing the likeliness for these polymers to end up in the environment. Environmental applications foreseeing the intentional release of biodegradable plastics have been also recently proposed ...

Stability of a dominant sponge‐symbiont in spite of antibiotic‐induced microbiome disturbance
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 24, Issue 12, Page 6392-6410, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Marine sponges are known for their complex and stable microbiomes. However, the lack of a gnotobiotic sponge‐model and experimental methods to manipulate both the host and the microbial symbionts currently limit our mechanistic understanding of sponge‐microbial symbioses.

Mental health and periodontal and peri‐implant diseases
Periodontology 2000, Volume 90, Issue 1, Page 106-124, October 2022., 2022 Abstract Mental health disorders, particularly depression and anxiety, affect a significant number of the global population. Several pathophysiological pathways for these disorders have been identified, including the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal axis, autonomic nervous system, and the immune system.
