Mitogenomics, phylogenetic position, and updated distribution of Ergasilus kandti, an ergasilid copepod parasitizing African cichlid fishes

This study updates the distribution of Ergasilus kandti and investigates the phylogenetic relationships of African ergasilids using mitochondrial genomes and microscopy.

Understanding the bacterial imbalance in Hidradenitis Suppurativa patients: Insights into microbial community shifts and colonization by opportunistic pathogens

This study analyzes the microbial community shifts in HS lesions compared to healthy skin, identifying bacterial imbalances and opportunistic pathogens associated with disease progression.

Hidradenitis suppurativa patients exhibit a distinctive and highly individualized skin virome

This study identifies distinct viral communities in HS patients compared to controls, highlighting differences in phage composition and potential roles in disease progression.

Universal gut microbial relationships in the gut microbiome of wild baboons

The paper analyzes gut microbial relationships in wild baboons and finds that microbial correlations are largely universal across hosts, with positive correlations dominated by shared patterns.

Synchrony and idiosyncrasy in the gut microbiome of wild baboons

This study examines gut microbiome dynamics in wild baboons, finding that microbial dynamics are largely idiosyncratic despite shared environments, with host-specific factors explaining most variation.

Successional stages in infant gut microbiota maturation

The paper investigates infant gut microbiota maturation over the first year, identifying three conserved stages and associating disease and antibiotic use with stage regression.

At least seven distinct rotavirus genotype constellations in bats with evidence of reassortment and zoonotic transmissions

The paper identifies seven distinct rotavirus genotype constellations in bats, finds evidence of reassortment, and suggests potential zoonotic transmission to humans and equines.
