Hallo und Guten Morgen from Germany! I hope you are well and have the time and energy to enjoy some microbiome related reading hours. I included a number of interesting reviews, related to mental and general health, soil microbiome and amphibian skin microbiome.
There is also a nice variety of new microbe research, including the influence of temperature changes on the microbiome of lizards and the microbiome’s association with heat tolerance, seasonal cycles of microbial communities in the Baltic Sea and the influence of hydrocarbons pollutants on the human skin microbiome.
Enjoy the reading!
