The paper shows that cell death affects the relationship between DNA replication-based estimates and population size changes in bacteria.

The paper shows that microbial persistence under osmotic stress in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron depends on both growth capacity and reduced cell loss.

The paper examines genetic diversity distribution in gut bacteria across different gut regions and finds it is uniform despite varying species composition.

This study investigates how early-life gut inflammation affects microbiome, endocrine, and behavioral outcomes, revealing sex-specific impacts on microbiota composition, hormone levels, and behavior.

PUPpy designs taxon-specific primers for substrain-level microbial detection and absolute quantification, outperforming 16S rRNA and shotgun sequencing in defined communities.
