Amoebic gill disease (AGD) in Atlantic Salmon investigated through a holo-omic lens

This study investigates Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) in Atlantic salmon using a holo-omic approach, linking host genetics, microbiota, and disease resistance traits.

Dietary fibre promotes chronic whipworm infection through direct and time-dependent modulation of innate immunity

This study shows dietary fibre promotes chronic whipworm infection in mice through direct modulation of innate immunity, independent of the microbiome.

Sample-specific CpG loci are important for accurate long-read methylation analysis

The paper introduces a likelihood-based method to identify sample-specific CpG loci in long-read sequencing data, improving accuracy in methylation analysis by reducing reference bias.

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.
