Today we have a interesting set of reviews. In addtion: research about virome in infants, microbiome changes in Alzheimer’s disease and changes in neonate and maternal microbiome under gestational diabetes. We have also the report of the Oral Microbiome Bank of China and some papers about invertebrate microbiome.
