The microbiome shapes many host traits, yet the biology of microbiomes challenges
traditional evolutionary models. Here, we illustrate how integrating the microbiome into …

In health, indigenous polymicrobial communities at mucosal surfaces maintain an ecological
balance via both inter‐microbial and host‐microbial interactions that promote their own and …

Gut bacteria can affect key aspects of host fitness, such as development, fecundity, and
lifespan, while the host, in turn, shapes the gut microbiome. However, it is unclear to what …

The microbiota promotes resistance to respiratory infection, but the mechanistic basis for this
is poorly defined. Here, we identify members of the microbiota that protect against …

Aquafeed companies aim to provide solutions to the various challenges related to nutrition
and health in aquaculture. Solutions to promote feed efficiency and growth, as well as …

With the continuous growth of the human population and associated need for high‐quality
protein, the aquaculture sector will be required to increase significantly in productivity. This …

Many diseases that originate on mucosal membranes ensue from the action of polymicrobial
communities of indigenous organisms working in concert to disrupt homeostatic …

Specific members of complex microbiota can influence host phenotypes, depending on both
the abiotic environment and the presence of other microorganisms. Therefore, it is …

Dysregulation of the inflammatory response in humans can lead to various inflammatory
diseases, like asthma and rheumatoid arthritis. The innate branch of the immune system …

The gut microbiome produces metabolites that interact with the aryl hydrocarbon receptor
(AhR), a key regulator of immune homoeostasis in the gut,. Here we show that oral exposure …
