A Phylogenomic and Molecular Signature Based Approach for Characterization of the Phylum Spirochaetes and its Major Clades: Proposal for a Taxonomic Revision of the Phylum

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013
The Spirochaetes species cause many important diseases including syphilis and Lyme disease. Except for their containing a distinctive endoflagella, no other molecular or biochemical characteristics are presently known that are specific for either all ...

Intestinal microbiota modulation and improved growth in pigs with post-weaning antibiotic and ZnO supplementation but only subtle microbiota effects with Bacillus altitudinis

Scientific Reports, 2021
The objective was to evaluate the effect of dietary Bacillus altitudinis spore supplementation during day (D)0–28 post-weaning (PW) and/or D29–56 PW compared with antibiotic and zinc oxide (AB + ZnO) supplementation on pig growth and gut microbiota ...

Application of a maximal-clique based community detection algorithm to gut microbiome data reveals driver microbes during influenza A virus infection

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Influenza A Virus (IAV) infection followed by bacterial pneumonia often leads to hospitalization and death in individuals from high risk groups. Following infection, IAV triggers the process of viral RNA replication which in turn disrupts healthy gut ...

Oral Microbiota, a Potential Determinant for the Treatment Efficacy of Gastric Helicobacter pylori Eradication in Humans

Polish Journal of Microbiology, 2022
The oral cavity serves as another reservoir for gastric Helicobacter pylori and may contribute to the failure of gastric H. pylori eradication therapy. However, changes to the oral microbial composition after gastric H. pylori eradication therapy has not

Comparison of the gut microbiome and resistome in captive African and Asian elephants on the same diet

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
Elephants are endangered species and threatened with extinction. They are monogastric herbivorous, hindgut fermenters and their digestive strategy requires them to consume large amounts of low quality forage.

Analysis of Gut Microbiota and Metabolites in Diannan Small Ear Sows at Diestrus and Metestrus

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The physiological state of the host affects the gut microbes. The estrus cycle is critical to the reproductive cycle of sows. However, the association between gut microbes and animal estrus is poorly understood.
