Fish microbiomes 101: disentangling the rules governing marine fish mucosal microbiomes across 101 species

The paper analyzes microbiomes of 101 marine fish species to identify factors influencing microbial diversity and distribution across body sites and environments.

Survival of hatchery grown native oysters is associated with specific gut-associated bacteria at various locations within the Puget Sound

This study examines how gut-associated bacteria in Olympia oysters vary by location in Puget Sound and links these variations to oyster survival rates.

Multi-omics profiling of Earth's biomes reveals patterns of diversity and co-occurrence in microbial and metabolite composition across environments

The paper performs a multi-omics meta-analysis of microbial and metabolite data from diverse environments, revealing patterns of diversity and co-occurrence across biomes.

A comparison of DNA/RNA extraction protocols for high-throughput sequencing of microbial communities

The paper compares DNA/RNA extraction protocols for microbial community sequencing, finding one protocol equivalent or better than a standard DNA-only method for RNA-based organisms.

Microbial ecology of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, hatcheries: impacts of the built environment on fish mucosal microbiota

This study examines how the microbiota of water and tank biofilms in Atlantic salmon hatcheries influences fish mucosal microbiota across gill, skin, and digesta sites.
