A functional circadian clock regulates composition and daily bacterial load of the gut microbiome in Drosophila melanogaster

This study shows that the Drosophila circadian clock influences gut microbiome composition and daily bacterial load, with some bacteria having their own circadian rhythms.

Challenges in the Biotechnological Implementation of Oral RNA Interference as an Antiviral Strategy in Aedes aegypti

This study investigates the effectiveness of oral RNA interference in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to combat Zika and chikungunya viruses, finding limited success with bacterial dsRNA delivery but some effect with direct dsRNA injection.
