The microbiota has been shown to promote intestinal tumourigenesis, but a possible anti-tumourigenic
effect has also been postulated. Here, we demonstrate that changes in the …

The interrelationship between IgAs and microbiota diversity is still unclear. Here we show that
BALB/c mice had higher abundance and diversity of IgAs than C57BL/6 mice and that this …

Metagenomics is providing an unprecedented access to the environmental microbial diversity.
The amplicon-based metagenomics approach involves the PCR-targeted sequencing of a …

Competition is one of the potential mechanisms of the antagonistic action of Trichoderma
harzianum against Fusarium oxysporum. The competitive capability of the T. harzianum isolate …

The rapid expansion of multicellular native and alien species outbreaks in aquatic and
terrestrial ecosystems (bioinvasions) may produce significant impacts on bacterial community …

Whereas most work to understand impacts of humans on biodiversity on coastal areas has
focused on large, conspicuous organisms, we highlight effects of tourist access on the …

Background Substantial advances in microbiology, molecular evolution and biodiversity
have been carried out in recent years thanks to Metagenomics, which allows to unveil the …

Currently, there is very little information available regarding the microbiome associated with
the wine production chain. Here, we used an amplicon sequencing approach based on high-…

Jellyfish represent an important component of marine food webs characterized by large
fluctuations of population density, with the ability to abruptly form outbreaks, followed by rarity …

Physicochemical and microbiological alteration of processed foods limits their shelf-life. To
extend the shelf-life of two different types of bakery products, we evaluated the effectiveness …
