Animal microbiome

Metagenomics reveals fibre fermentation and AMR pathways in red grouse (Lagopus scotica) microbiota – Anum Ali Ahmad – BMC Microbiology

Thrilled that our new paper on the Red Grouse microbiota has now been published in BMC Microbiology: doi.org/10.1186/s128…! A really rewarding collaboration between our team and Nick Hesford and Kathy Fletcher from the Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust @gwct.org.uk.

Establishment of the early gut microbiota in vaginally delivered infants: the influence of maternal gut microbiota outweighs vaginal microbiota – Haishan Xie – Microbiology Spectrum

Integrative multi-omics analysis of dietary fibre-induced modulations in the composition and function of chicken caecal microbiota – Anum Ali Ahmad – bioRxiv

Vaginal microbiome

Degradation of Resistant α-1,4-glucan by Vaginal Gardnerella Species is Associated with Bacterial Vaginosis – Rosanne Hertzberger – Current Microbiology 

Animal experiments

The microbiome is associated with obesity-related metabolome signature in the process of aging – Dana Binyamin – npj Biofilms and Microbiomes

Evidence for an indigenous female mouse urobiome – Sidra Sohail – bioRxiv 

Food microbiome 

Microbiome profiling of Grana Padano and Parmigiano Reggiano cheeses reveals cheese-specific biomarkers, psychobiotic potential, and bioprotective activities – Vincenzo Valentino – npj Biofilms and Microbiomes

Metabolomics

Microbes release lower-value metabolites at higher rates – Snorre Sulheim – bioRxiv

So excited to share this new paper by @sulheim.bsky.social and others! It's rare that you find a pattern, propose a hypothesis and the more you look, the more data you find that fits! Snorre's intuition, hard work and rigour to put it all together have been inspiring! Let us know what you think…

Comparison of iSeq and Miseq in 16S rRNA sequencing-based human gut microbiome analysis – Yanling Wang – bioRxiv 

Podcast

Biopolis – into the microbiome A young scientist is looking for answers in the human microbiome.

Food systems are teeming with complex microbial networks, carried from soil and water to crops, animals, and humans. Can we better track and steer these networks to enhance ecosystem health and food security? Find out more at this #FrontiersForum webinar ➡️ fro.ntiers.in/NfcCnmIEkWb
