Both sexes are obligate blood feeders and have evolved tight relationships with endosymbionts, already shown to provide essential nutrients lacking in their diet. However, the partnership between tsetse and its symbionts has so far been investigated, at the molecular, genomic and metabolomics level, ...
Functions related to immunity, mating, amino acid and nucleotide metabolism, and seminal fluid proteins were directly impacted by microbiota removal in the male accessory glands. One of these functions includes chitin binding. Proteins with chitin binding activity have been associated with antimicrobial r...
After millions of years of coevolution, symbiotic microbiota has become an integral part of the host and plays an important role in host immunity, metabolism, and health. Vaccination, as an effective means of preventing infectious diseases, has been playing a vital role in the prevention and con...
including corals. Their role in holobiont health and functioning, however, remains poorly understood. To identify potential interactions within the coral holobiont, we characterized the novel isolateEndozoicomonas marisrubrisp. nov. 6c and assessed its transcriptomic and proteomic response to tissue extrac...
[80]. Although the discrete enterotypes and their drivers remain contested [81,82], long-term diet has been associated as one driver of enterotypes [83]. A plant’s ‘diet’ is the surrounding soil, and plants rely on different nutrient acquisition strategies for their ‘dietary intake’. ...
Diet and diet-associated bacteria shape early microbiome development in Yellowtail Kingfish (Seriola lalandi). Micro Biotechnol. 2019;12:275–88. 9. Neave MJ, Rachmawati R, Xun L, Michell CT, Bourne DG, Apprill A, et al. Dif- ferential specificity between closely related corals and abundant...
To investigate the effects of EQ supplementation on alleviating enteric oxidative stress in heat-stressed broilers, 200 one-day-old male Ross 308 broilers were randomly assigned to 4 groups (n = 50 chicks/group; n = 10 chicks/replicate) and fed a basal diet supplemented with 0 (CT), 50 ...
This study investigated the effects of high protein, probiotic and symbiotic supplementation on the immunity of culled moulted White Leghorn hens. Cage-housed hens (= 240) aged about 70 weeks were moulted by including zinc in the diet. The moulted hens were randomly divided in four treatment ...
low-fibre diet exacerbates detrimental interactions and compromises beneficial symbiotic resilience,underscoring a destabilizing effect towards an unhealthy state.Moreover,the proposed model provides essential insights into oxygen levels,fibre and protein breakdown,and basic mechanisms of innate immunity in the...
Bacterial communities can vary depending on diet in several insect species24–28. However, few studies have determined how these shifts in bacterial community composition impact interactions between insects and their host plants or how these changes impact induced plant defenses. In this study, we ...
