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.

In Vitro Ruminal Metagenomic Profiles and Ruminal Fermentation Variables of Aromatic Plant Pulps

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Aromatic plant residues remaining after aromatic oil extraction represent a promising alternative feed source due to their rich bioactive compound content and fibrous structure. However, their fermentative behaviour and microbial degradability in the rumen require evaluation.

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.

More Than a Stick in the Mud: Eelgrass Leaf and Root Bacterial Communities Are Distinct From Those on Physical Mimics

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
Unique communities inhabit eelgrass leaves and roots compared to physical mimics and their environment. We examine which taxa vary to determine what host–microbe relationships may be mediate by biotic interactions. This indicates that eelgrass leaves and roots may just unique environments for microbes, but also could indicate more active partnership ...

Combination of microbiome analysis and serodiagnostics to assess the risk of pathogen transmission by ticks to humans and animals in central Germany

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Arthropod-borne diseases remain a major health-threat for humans and animals worldwide. To estimate the distribution of pathogenic agents and especially Bartonella spp., we conducted tick microbiome analysis and determination of the infection ...
