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.

Characterization of the Core and Caste-Specific Microbiota in the Termite, Reticulitermes flavipes [PDF]
, 2016 The hindgut of the termite Reticulitermes flavipes harbors a complex symbiotic community consisting of protists, bacteria, and archaea. These symbionts aid in the digestion of lignocellulose from the termite’s wood meal. Termite hindguts were sampled and

Persistent tissue-specific resident microbiota in oysters across a broad geographical range. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepWild eastern oysters along the US East Coast harbour unique, tissue‐specific microbial communities that are distinct from the surrounding seawater and sediment microbiomes. These resident microbes persist across different geographic locations, underscoring the oyster's role in selecting its microbiome.

Schizasterid Heart Urchins Host Microorganisms in a Digestive Symbiosis of Mesozoic Origin
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Because of their lifestyles, abundance, and feeding habits, infaunal marine deposit feeders have a significant impact on the ocean floor. As these animals also ingest microorganisms associated with their sediment and seawater diet, their digestive tract ...

Noma affected children from Niger have distinct oral microbial communities based on high-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene fragments. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014 We aim to understand the microbial ecology of noma (cancrum oris), a devastating ancient illness which causes severe facial disfigurement in>140,000 malnourished children every year. The cause of noma is still elusive.

Effect of a Profound Feedstock Change on the Structure and Performance of Biogas Microbiomes
Microorganisms, 2020 In this study the response of biogas-producing microbiomes to a profound feedstock change was investigated. The microbiomes were adapted to the digestion of either 100% sugar beet, maize silage, or of the silages with elevated amounts of total ammonium ...
