The term “core microbiome” has become widely used in microbial ecology over the last
decade. Broadly, the core microbiome refers to any set of microbial taxa, or the genomic and …

Microbiome or microbiota is essential to regulate many mammalian physiological processes,
including reproduction. Like other organs or tissues, the upper female reproductive tract …

While gut microbiome and host gene regulation independently contribute to gastrointestinal
disorders, it is unclear how the two may interact to influence host pathophysiology. Here we …

Background Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic metabolic bone disease characterized by
decreased bone mass and destruction of bone microstructure, which tends to result in …

Environmental pH is a critical parameter for maintenance of the gut microbiota. Here, the

The fecal microbiome of 55 obese children and adolescents (BMI-SDS 3.2±0.7) and of 25
normal-weight subjects, matched both for age and sex (BMI-SDS− 0.3±1.1) was analysed …

Linking community composition and ecosystem function via the cultivation-independent
analysis of marker genes, eg, the 16S rRNA gene, is a staple of microbial ecology and …

The multi‐batch reanalysis approach of jointly reevaluating gene/genome sequences from
different works has gained particular relevance in the literature in recent years. The large …

Despite the advent of third-generation sequencing technologies, modern bacterial ecology
studies still use Illumina to sequence small (~ 400 bp) hypervariable regions of the 16S …
