Plants are sessile organisms and are constantly subjected to varying environmental stressors. However, they can mitigate the effects of these stresses by deploying plant growth-promoting (PGP) microbes for their protection. PGP microbes can boost pla...
Agriculture is an essential activity in Mexico, representing the main source of income of numerous families. Crops are negatively affected by many diseases, particularly caused by phytopathogenic fungi, whose control by biological agents emerges as a...
Hatching eggs possess multiple physical and chemical barriers that limit microbial invasion; however, the role of the eggshell membrane in shaping late-stage embryonic and early post-hatch gastrointestinal (GI) microbiota remains poorly understood. T...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators of host–microbiome interactions. They influence diverse physiological processes through post-transcriptional gene regulation. Growing evidence indicates that host-derived miRNAs and microbially encoded miRN...
Hyphal systems have been essential for the morphoanatomical characterization of basidiomes and mycelia of aphyllophoroid fungi for taxonomic purposes. They have also been shown to influence the consistency of basidiomes. Recent developments in areas...
The rise in antimicrobial-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) strains poses major challenges to gonorrhea treatment worldwide. Ceftriaxone remains the first-line antibiotic therapy; however, emerging resistance, particularly driven by the mosaic pen...
Tannery effluents constitute highly complex chemical and biological matrices that can affect ecosystem integrity and public health. In Paraguay, metagenomic information on industrial discharge remains limited. In this context, the aim of this study w...
This study investigated the effectiveness of ethanol (70%, 3 min), Ultraviolet-C irradiation (6 and 12 min), and ultrasound (37 kHz, 15 min) for decreasing Candida albicans, Aspergillus brasiliensis, and Listeria innocua on Greek Kalamon table olives...
Research on the reproductive tract microbiology of broodmares has primarily focused on the uterus, with a limited set of tools for the rapid detection of pathogenic bacteria in the perineal region. Accurate, real-time identification of bacterial cont...
Antimicrobial resistance is a growing threat to public health and the environment, especially in vulnerable ecosystems such as the Amazon. The confluence of the Marañón, Utcubamba, and Chinchipe rivers, known as the Pongo de Rentema, is...
The first step to selecting interesting lactic acid bacteria for commercial use is testing their resistance to different physicochemical stresses. In this study, we evaluated the viability of Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus durans, obtained fro...
Giardiasis, caused by the protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia, remains a prevalent intestinal infection worldwide and a growing concern due to increasing resistance to nitroimidazole drugs. This study proposes an alternative therapeutic strategy by ta...
Plant growth-promoting (PGP) bacteria are beneficial microbes that can help plants mitigate various biotic and abiotic stresses through different PGP functions. Flavins (FLs) are involved in flavoprotein-mediated reactions essential for plant metabol...
