A warming world may see more antibiotic-resistant bacteria, according to new research that shows a link between aridity and ...
Technological advancements in computation and genetics have enabled researchers to sequence the genomes of vast numbers of organisms. With metagenomics techniques, researchers are able to sequence all ...
A Caltech-led study published in Nature Microbiology found that drought drives elevated antibiotic resistance across soils ...
The relationship between the gut microbiome and the human body is complex. While the microbes in the human gastrointestinal tract have major impact on various aspects of health, many factors can ...
No matter how much they brush their teeth, some people still get more cavities than others, in part because of differences in genetics and the make-up of the microbes in their mouths. A new study has ...
Our gut microbes and genes are in constant conversation, shaping each other in ways that affect everything from immunity and inflammation to disease risk, according to new review of scientific ...
Genetically modified organisms are one thing. Convincing people they are safe to eat or use is something else entirely. Since ...
Scientists studying thousands of rats discovered that gut bacteria are shaped by both personal genetics and the genetics of social partners. Some genes promote certain microbes that can spread between ...
Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have identified a bacterial genus that promotes root growth and nitrogen uptake in plants. The findings open new possibilities for developing ...
Scientists have identified why some gut microbes successfully stay in the gut after faecal transplants, whilst others are much more transient. The King’s College London discovery could help make the ...
No matter how much they brush their teeth, some people still get more cavities than others, in part because of differences in genetics and the make-up of the microbes in their mouths. A new study has ...
The trillions of microbes living in the human gut are increasingly recognized as important partners in human health.
