Towards the biogeography of prokaryotic genes

Luis Pedro Coelho et al.

Summary: The majority of microbial genes are specific to a single habitat, with a small fraction found in multiple habitats enriched in antibiotic-resistance genes and markers for mobile genetic elements. A small fraction of protein families contain the majority of genes, with most genetic variability observed within the families being neutral or nearly neutral.

Highly abundant core taxa in the blow within and across captive bottlenose dolphins provide evidence for a temporally stable airway microbiota

Catharina Vendl et al.

Summary: The research investigates the stability of the blow microbiota composition in captive bottlenose dolphins over an eight-month period, including individuals with both medical conditions and those who are healthy. Each dolphin was found to have a unique community of zero-radius operational taxonomic units (zOTUs) that remained consistent throughout the study, with an average of 73% of the microbiota's relative abundance representing this 'intra-core'. While there was variation over time, dolphins shared between 8 and 66 zOTUs on different sampling occasions, accounting for 17-41% of an individual's airway microbiota. Age and sex of the dolphins were found to have an effect on the blow microbiota, but there was no clear impact from microbial treatment.

A mixed community of skin microbiome representatives influences cutaneous processes more than individual members

Kristin H. Loomis et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that the microbiome on the skin tissue model significantly alters gene expression patterns, affecting genes involved in apoptosis, proliferation, and extracellular matrix regulation, among others. The microbiome treatment influences the thickness of the epidermal layer, reduces the number of actively proliferating cells, and increases filaggrin expression. It shows that a diverse skin microbiome has unique and pronounced effects on the host, more so than individual microbes.

Microbiome Analyses Demonstrate Specific Communities Within Five Shark Species

Rachael Storo et al.

Summary: The microbiomes of five shark species in South Florida were characterized for the first time using high throughput DNA sequencing, revealing species specific compositions and the effects of anatomical locations. Specific microbial communities in shark teeth may include potential human pathogens, which could be informative for shark bite treatment and future research. The study concludes that South Florida sharks host species-specific microbiomes that vary among species and anatomical locations.

Dietary and reproductive biomarkers in a generalist apex predator reveal differences in nutritional ecology across life stages

Bianca de Sousa Rangel et al.

Summary: This study investigated the nutritional status and trophic dynamics of female tiger sharks across different life stages using non-lethal methods. Results showed that female tiger sharks adjusted their diet and fatty acid metabolism depending on their reproductive context, suggesting changes in their nutritional requirements associated with reproductive state. These findings provide insights into the expected changes in nutritional and trophic markers across life stages of female tiger sharks.

Photophore Distribution and Enzymatic Diversity Within the Photogenic Integument of the Cookie-Cutter Shark Isistius brasiliensis (Chondrichthyes: Dalatiidae)

Jerome Delroisse et al.

Summary: The study confirmed the non-photogenic status of the black band in the cookie-cutter shark and identified the sub-rostral area as having the highest density of photophores. Two pilot transcriptomes were generated using Illumina sequencing, predicting an unknown luciferase system and providing valuable resources for future investigations on the biology of this enigmatic luminous shark.

Bacterial community dynamics during embryonic development of the little skate (Leucoraja erinacea)

Katelyn Mika et al.

Summary: This study investigated the microbial communities associated with embryonic development in the little skate, highlighting evidence of vertical transmission in chondrichthyan species. The results showed site-specific and stage-specific microbiota dominated by Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes phyla, with a highly diverse bacterial community on the internal surface of the skate egg capsule. The study provides important insights into the microbial dynamics during ontogeny in chondrichthyans.
