Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are essential for many fruit, vegetable and grain food and beverage
fermentations. However, the numbers, diversity and plant‐specific adaptions of LAB found …

Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (formerly Lactobacillus plantarum) is a lactic acid bacteria
species found on plants that is essential for many plant food fermentations. In this study, we …

Strains of Lactococcus lactis isolated from plant tissues possess adaptations that support
their survival and growth in plant‐associated microbial habitats. We previously demonstrated …

Oxidative stress and angiogenesis have been implicated not only in normal phenomena such
as tissue healing and remodeling but also in many pathological processes. However, the …

Retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell dysfunction and death play vital roles in age-related
macular degeneration (AMD) pathogenesis. Previously we showed that oxidative cleavage of …

The importance of individual nutrients for microbial strain robustness and coexistence in
habitats containing different members of the same species is not well understood. To address …
