The Expanding Landscape of Microbiota Medicine: Indications, Therapeutic Modalities, and the Path Towards Integrative Microbiome‐Targeting Healthcare

Microbiota Medicine Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing recognition of the microbiome's role in human health has propelled the emergence of microbiota medicine—a new discipline integrating microbiology, multi‐omics, and clinical science. Advances in sequencing, data integration, and interventions such as fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) have transitioned the field from ...

Soil Viruses: A New Hope. [PDF]

, 2019
As abundant members of microbial communities, viruses impact microbial mortality, carbon and nutrient cycling, and food web dynamics. Although most of our information about viral communities comes from marine systems, evidence is mounting to suggest that

Activity‐Informed Network Analysis Reveals Keystone Microbes Shaping Freshwater Ecosystem Function

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Graphical abstract illustrating the workflow and key findings of this study. We first applied SPIEC‐EASI to metagenomic abundance data to construct microbial co‐occurrence networks and selected the top 15 MAGs based on degree centrality. We then used CARlasso to detect relationships between the top MAGs and environmental features.

Lower viral evolutionary pressure under stable versus fluctuating conditions in subzero Arctic brines

Microbiome, 2023
Background Climate change threatens Earth’s ice-based ecosystems which currently offer archives and eco-evolutionary experiments in the extreme. Arctic cryopeg brine (marine-derived, within permafrost) and sea ice brine, similar in subzero temperature ...

Are You My Host? An Overview of Methods Used to Link Bacteriophages with Hosts

Viruses
Until recently, the only methods for finding out if a particular strain or species of bacteria could be a host for a particular bacteriophage was to see if the bacteriophage could infect that bacterium and kill it, releasing progeny phages.
