Growing a cystic fibrosis-relevant polymicrobial biofilm to probe community phenotypes.

This paper develops a four-species polymicrobial biofilm model to study interspecies interactions in cystic fibrosis lung infections and observe clinically relevant phenotypes.

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.

The role of microbial diversity in the formation of soil organic matter quality and persistence

This study shows that diverse microbial communities produce more stable soil organic matter by increasing its chemical complexity.

Integrating independent microbial studies to build predictive models of anaerobic digestion inhibition by ammonia and phenol

The paper integrates multiple microbial studies to identify robust biomarkers of anaerobic digestion inhibition by ammonia and phenol, achieving 90% accuracy in predicting inhibition using a multivariate model.
