Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.

Hotter, faster, sicker? Warming shifts the cost of infection from individuals to populations
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study examines how temperature alters disease impacts across biological scales in a host–pathogen system. We found infected hosts appear healthiest at warm temperatures, yet populations suffer most. This suggests climate warming may intensify disease impacts for populations in ways traditional individual‐level virulence metrics fail to predict ...

Toxicity study of SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein expressed on Bacillus subtilis spores
BMC MicrobiologyBackground The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is the primary antigen used in most COVID-19 vaccines. To improve protection, especially at mucosal surfaces, a robust and safe delivery system capable of inducing both systemic and mucosal immunity is needed ...

Modeling branching and chiral colonial patterning of lubricating bacteria
, 1998 In nature, microorganisms must often cope with hostile environmental conditions. To do so they have developed sophisticated cooperative behavior and intricate communication capabilities, such as: direct cell-cell physical interactions via extra-membrane ...

Supra and subgingival application of antiseptics or antibiotics during periodontal therapy
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Periodontal diseases (gingivitis and periodontitis) are characterized by inflammatory processes which arise as a result of disruption of the balance in the oral ecosystem. According to the current S3 level clinical practice guidelines, therapy of patients with periodontitis involves a stepwise approach that includes the control of the patient ...

Bacterial survival in Martian conditions
, 2010 We shortly discuss the observable consequences of the two hypotheses about the origin of life on Earth and Mars: the Lithopanspermia (Mars to Earth or viceversa) and the origin from a unique progenitor, that for Earth is called LUCA (the LUCA hypothesis).
