Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003 Our intestine is the site of an extraordinarily complex and dynamic environmentally transmitted consortial symbiosis. The molecular foundations of beneficial symbiotic host-bacterial relationships in the gut are being revealed in part from studies of simplified models of this ecosystem, where germ-free mice are colonized with specified members of the ...

Epibionts of an Introduced King Crab in the Barents Sea: A Second Five-Year Study
Diversity, 2022 The biodiversity, infestation patterns, and spatial distribution of organisms living in association with the introduced red king crab Paralithodes camtschaticus were studied in Dalnezelenetskaya Bay, southern Barents Sea, in 2009–20013 to update a list ...

Swapping symbionts in spittlebugs: evolutionary replacement of a reduced genome symbiont [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2014 Abstract Bacterial symbionts that undergo long-term maternal transmission experience elevated fixation of deleterious mutations, resulting in massive loss of genes and changes in gene sequences that appear to limit efficiency of gene products.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An optimized single‐cell transcriptomic framework profiles over 60 000 cells to map the ovine rumen microbiome, partitioning the ecosystem into seven cross‐species functional clusters. In heat‐resistant hosts, a lineage‐specific metabolic shift in Anaerovibrio lipolyticus toward a highly glycolytic phenotype contributes to a “nutritional sparing ...

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Symbioses between lichen‐forming fungi and brown algae (phaeophytes) are extremely rare. We investigated the interactions between the marine fungus Collemopsidium pelvetiae and its two photosynthetic partners, the brown alga Pelvetia canaliculata and a cyanobacterial symbiont to address questions on symbiosis biology, lichenization ...
