Holobiont perspectives on tripartite interactions among microbiota, mosquitoes, and pathogens
Mosquito-borne diseases like dengue and malaria cause a significant global health burden. Unfortunately, current insecticides and environmental...

Decline of a distinct coral reef holobiont community under ocean acidification
BackgroundMicrobes play vital roles across coral reefs both in the environment and inside and upon macrobes (holobionts), where they support critical...
-
Microbial shifts associated to ENSO-derived thermal anomalies reveal coral acclimation at holobiont level
The coral microbiome conforms a proxy to study effects of changing environmental conditions. However, scarce information exists regarding microbiome...
-
Single-polyp metabolomics reveals biochemical structuring of the coral holobiont at multiple scales
All biology happens in space, and spatial structuring plays an important role in mediating biological processes at all scales from cells to...

On the holobiont ‘predictome’ of immunocompetence in pigs
BackgroundGut microbial composition plays an important role in numerous traits, including immune response. Integration of host genomic information...

Coordinated wound responses in a regenerative animal-algal holobiont
Animal regeneration involves coordinated responses across cell types throughout the animal body. In endosymbiotic animals, whether and how symbionts...

De novo metatranscriptomic exploration of gene function in the millipede holobiont
Invertebrate–microbial associations are widespread in the biosphere and are often related to the function of novel genes, fitness advantages, and...

Metatranscriptomic response of the wheat holobiont to decreasing soil water content
Crops associate with microorganisms that help their resistance to biotic stress. However, it is not clear how the different partners of this...

Disentangling direct vs indirect effects of microbiome manipulations in a habitat-forming marine holobiont
Host-associated microbiota are critical for eukaryotic host functioning, to the extent that hosts and their associated microbial communities are...

The Arabidopsis holobiont: a (re)source of insights to understand the amazing world of plant–microbe interactions
As holobiont, a plant is intrinsically connected to its microbiomes. However, some characteristics of these microbiomes, such as their taxonomic...

Genomic signatures suggesting adaptation to ocean acidification in a coral holobiont from volcanic CO2 seeps
Ocean acidification, caused by anthropogenic CO 2 emissions, is predicted to have major consequences for reef-building corals, jeopardizing the...

Heat stress reduces the contribution of diazotrophs to coral holobiont nitrogen cycling
Efficient nutrient cycling in the coral-algal symbiosis requires constant but limited nitrogen availability. Coral-associated diazotrophs, i.e.,...
-
The holobiont self: understanding immunity in context
Both concepts of the holobiont and the immune system are at the heart of an ongoing scientific and philosophical examination concerning questions of...
-
Symbiont genotype influences holobiont response to increased temperature
As coral reefs face warming oceans and increased coral bleaching, a whitening of the coral due to loss of microalgal endosymbionts, the possibility...

A novel and dual digestive symbiosis scales up the nutrition and immune system of the holobiont Rimicaris exoculata
BackgroundIn deep-sea hydrothermal vent areas, deprived of light, most animals rely on chemosynthetic symbionts for their nutrition. These symbionts...
