Limited resource availability in the gut promotes competitive interactions between bacteria, which drive adaptive within-host evolution. While the role of bacterial adaptive evolution of bacterial communities has been extensively studied, its functional implications for host physiology remain unk...
Algal blooms drive global biogeochemical cycles of key nutrients in the oceans and serve as hotspots for biological interactions. The massive spring blooms of the cosmopolitan coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi (E. huxleyi) are often infected by the lytic Emiliania huxleyi
Marine viruses play a key role in regulating phytoplankton populations, greatly affecting the biogeochemical cycling of major nutrients in the ocean. Resistance to viral infection has been reported for various phytoplankton species under laboratory conditions. Nevertheless, the occurrence of resi...
Despite improvement in clinical management, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is still hampered by high morbidity and mortality rates, mainly due to Graft versus host disease (GvHD). Recently, it has been demonstrated that the allogeneic immune response might be influenced...
