Evolutionary trade-offs between heat and cold tolerance limit responses to fluctuating climates

M. F. Schou, A. Engelbrecht, Z. Brand, E. I. Svensson, S. Cloete, C. K. Cornwallis

The paper identifies a negative genetic correlation between heat and cold tolerance in ostriches, limiting their ability to adapt to fluctuating climates.

Early-life gut dysbiosis linked to mass mortality in ostriches

E. Videvall, S. J. Song, H. M. Bensch, M. Strandh, A. Engelbrecht, N. Serfontein, O. Hellgren, A. Olivier, S. Cloete, R. Knight, C. K. Cornwallis

The paper links early-life gut dysbiosis in ostriches to mass mortality by showing distinct microbial composition in deceased individuals compared to controls and the early presence of pathobionts.

The development of gut microbiota in ostriches and its association with juvenile growth

E. Videvall, S. J. Song, H. M. Bensch, M. Strandh, A. Engelbrecht, N. Serfontein, O. Hellgren, A. Olivier, S. Cloete, R. Knight, C. K. Cornwallis

This study examines gut microbiota development in juvenile ostriches and links microbial changes to growth patterns during their first three months of life.

Direct PCR offers a fast and reliable alternative to conventional DNA isolation methods for animal gut microbiomes

E. Videvall, M. Strandh, A. Engelbrecht, S. Cloete, C. K. Cornwallis

This study compares direct PCR and DNA extraction methods for 16S rRNA sequencing of gut microbiomes in ostriches, finding direct PCR reliable for some samples but less so for others.

Measuring the gut microbiome in birds: comparison of faecal and cloacal sampling

E. Videvall, M. Strandh, A. Engelbrecht, S. Cloete, C. K. Cornwallis

This study compares faecal and cloacal sampling methods for measuring gut microbiomes in birds, finding faeces better represent the colon microbiome but both are poor for ileum and caecum.
