The rich diversity of secondary metabolites produced by soil bacteria has been appreciated
for over a century, and advances in chemical analysis and genome sequencing continue to …

Disease-suppressive soils are ecosystems in which plants suffer less from root infections
due to the activities of specific microbial consortia. The characteristics of soils suppressive to …

Certain bacterial species produce antimicrobial compounds only in the presence of a competing
species. However, little is known on the frequency of interaction-mediated induction of …

The importance of volatile organic compounds for functioning of microbes is receiving increased
research attention. However, to date very little is known on how inter-specific bacterial …

Recent studies indicated that the production of secondary metabolites by soil bacteria can
be triggered by interspecific interactions. However, little is known to date about interspecific …

In the current era of precision oncology, it is widely acknowledged that CRC is a heterogeneous
disease entity. Tumor location (right- or left-sided colon cancer or rectal cancer) is a …

The human gut and the rhizosphere are environments colonized by highly diverse communities
of microbes, which perform complex interactions with their host and carry out important …

Endophytic bacteria are known for their ability in promoting plant growth and defense against
biotic and abiotic stress. However, very little is known about the microbial endophytes …

Background Many soil-inhabiting bacteria are known to produce secondary metabolites that
can suppress microorganisms competing for the same resources. The production of …

Background and Aims: Activation of the inflammasome NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR- and pyrin
domain containing 3) contributes to the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) …
