A soil-mimetic microcosm reveals that fungal hyphae selectively recruit a significantly reduced and distinct bacterial community, with an 87% decline in genus richness compared to bulk soil.
Vegetation-driven shifts in estuary microbiomes significantly alter microbial and viral communities involved in carbon, sulfur, nitrogen, and iron cycling, impacting greenhouse gas emissions.
Gut microbiome dysbiosis, increased Proteobacteria, and elevated virulence factors characterize diarrheal children, with a 42-sample study revealing distinct microbial profiles.
MgtC's physiological roles in bacteria are highly context-dependent, varying with genetic background and environmental conditions, especially during magnesium starvation and macrophage infection.
Cold-water gut microbes from Gasterosteus aculeatus can oxidize polypropylene, but microbial interactions may inhibit this bioremediation potential, especially in cold environments.
Rarefaction outperforms robust Aitchison PCA and other compositional methods in controlling for uneven sequencing effort in microbial studies.
Rigorous benchmarking of computational methods reveals marine alphaproteobacteria as the origin of hopanoid synthesis, enhancing understanding of bacterial metabolite production.
Continuous cultivation reveals diverse host inhibition and adaptation dynamics of Minisyncoccota episymbionts, with effects ranging from mild inhibition to rapid host collapse.
Cellular responsiveness in Pseudomonas putida KT2440 declines with benzoate exposure, predicting population collapse at critical thresholds and enabling autonomous bioprocess control.
Carbon source determines distinct metabolic states in Propionibacterium freudenreichii, with lactate promoting vitamin B12 synthesis and hexoses inducing redox-constrained pathways.
Integrated surveillance combining multiple methods reveals extensive antimicrobial resistance across human, animal, and environmental reservoirs, with wastewater showing high AMR gene prevalence.
All biosynthetic gene clusters in Saccharomonospora xinjiangensis XJ-54 are transcriptionally active and exhibit growth-phase-dependent expression, leading to antifungal metabolite production.
Gut microbiome alterations, especially lactate-utilizing bacteria like Veillonella atypica, strongly associate with hepatitis E severity, achieving an AUC of 0.944 in classification.
Synthesis-driven reverse metabolomics identified over 400 3-hydroxy N-acyl amides across diverse biological samples, revealing their widespread presence and potential biological roles.
Microbiomes associated with Ascaris lumbricoides and Trichuris trichiura are largely transient, host-derived communities that may influence parasite survival and host interactions.
Genome mining and metabolomics reveal that Hyaloscypha finlandica possesses diverse, context-dependent biosynthetic potential with 7-oxodehydroabietic acid identified among key metabolites.
Carbon starvation induces extensive proteomic remodeling in Mycobacterium abscessus, with 33% of proteins significantly changing in abundance during non-replicating persistence.
A novel human gut-derived Streptomyces strain, CGMCC 17111, significantly suppresses colorectal cancer by inducing apoptosis and restoring gut balance, with potent effects observed in vitro and in vivo.
Deletion of craA significantly reduces chloramphenicol resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC19606, highlighting its dominant role among efflux pumps.
