The need for high-resolution gut microbiome characterization to design efficient strategies for sustainable aquaculture production

This study evaluates microbiota-directed fibers (MDFs) in Atlantic salmon diets, finding negligible effects on gut microbiome and host physiology, but identifying potential endogenous lactic acid bacteria for future MDF strategies.

Host-gut microbiota interactions shape parasite infections in farmed Atlantic salmon

The paper investigates how host genetics and gut microbiota interact with parasite infections in Atlantic salmon, finding that cestode infections alter microbiota composition and host gene expression.

A comparison of tools for copy-number variation detection in germline whole exome and whole genome sequencing data

The paper benchmarks CNV detection tools on WGS and WES data using clinical standards and reference samples, finding that combining multiple tools improves recall but precision remains a challenge.
