Cloning large biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) is fundamental to unlocking microbial natural product potential for drug discovery and biotechnology. These clusters encode diverse bioactive compounds, but their size, high GC content, and complex arch...
Listeria monocytogenes is a persistent foodborne pathogen capable of surviving in food processing environments, often in association with diverse environmental microflora. This study examines genomic determinants of persistence, specifically stress a...
Diet plays a pivotal role in shaping the gut microbiota, influencing host physiology, immune function, and nutrient metabolism. In this study, we evaluated the impact of three distinct feeding systems—Forage only, Balanced feed only, and Mixed...
Microbial fermentation is a key biotechnological tool for producing bioactive metabolites such as alkaloids, carotenoids, essential oils, and phenolic compounds, among others, with applications in human health, agriculture, and food industries. This...
Previous research showed that a strain of Leuconostoc mesenteroides, isolated from goat’s raw milk cheese, was effective in slowing down the growth and reducing the maximum concentration of L. monocytogenes when evaluated in a milk model; furth...
This study focuses on the diversity of phytoplankton in the Koh Yaa region of Thailand and their relationship with environmental variables, aiming to assess whether human activities (primarily tourism) pose potential threats to the marine ecosystem a...
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are increasingly recognized for their role in food biopreservation due to their ability to synthesize antimicrobial compounds. Milk naturally harbors a wide variety of LAB, offering a promising source for identifying strain...
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) sustains global caloric intake, but its productivity in Andean highlands is constrained by soil fertility and input reliance. This study represents one of the first field-based evaluations of biofertilizers under high-alt...
Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a strategic crop for climate-smart agriculture in the Andes, yet yield gains are constrained by soil degradation and low-input systems. We tested whether synergistic bioinoculation with a plant growth-promoting r...
Conventional and organic agriculture can both cause soil microbial community structure (SMCS) destruction, infertility, and abandonment. The application of soil productivity-improving biofertilizers is a sustainable practice that requires holistic kn...
