Experimental and methodological framework for the assessment of nucleic acids in airborne microorganisms

This paper evaluates best practices for studying airborne microorganisms using molecular methods and finds that replication and contamination control improve data reliability.

Holistic integration of omics data reveals the drivers that shape the ecology of microbial meat spoilage scenarios

This study integrates multi-omic data from meat production to identify key factors shaping microbial spoilage scenarios in poultry and pork sausages.

Comparison of metabarcoding taxonomic markers to describe fungal communities in fermented foods

This study compares fungal metabarcoding markers and pipelines to assess their accuracy in identifying fungal species in fermented foods.

Artisanal and farmers bread making practices differently shape fungal species community composition in French sourdoughs

The paper compares fungal community composition in French sourdoughs made by artisanal and farmer-like bread-making practices, finding distinct fungal species dominance based on practice type.

The first horse gut microbiome gene catalog reveals that rare microbiome ensures better cardiovascular fitness in endurance horses

The paper builds the first equine gut microbiome gene catalog and links rare microbiome species to improved cardiovascular fitness in endurance horses.

Temporal patterns in Ixodes ricinus microbial communities: an insight into tick-borne microbe interactions

The paper analyzes temporal dynamics of microbial communities in Ixodes ricinus ticks using high-throughput sequencing and identifies interactions between symbionts and pathogens.

Taxon appearance from extraction and amplification steps demonstrates the value of multiple controls in tick microbiome analysis

This study shows that contamination from DNA extraction and amplification steps can represent over half of the sequences in tick microbiome analyses, leading to unreliable results.
