  1. it's been an interesting #ecology session at the #CellPress symposium on #microbiomes. learned a few things I might follow up on. An impressive representation from Dunn School at #Oxford actually.

  2. Hidden #tree #bark #microbes munch on important #climate gases
    Knowing these vast #microbiomes' preferences might help customize #reforestation plans
    The #treebark microbes feast on #hydrogen, #methane and #carbonmonoxide. Methane is a #greenhousegas 28 times more potent than #carbondioxide over a 100-yr. Carbon monoxide — which is lethal to humans — and hydrogen enhance #globalwarming indirectly, by helping methane persist longer in atmosphere.

  7. Skin flora (Microbiology 🦠)

    Skin flora, also called skin microbiota, refers to microbiota that reside on the skin, typically human skin. Many of them are bacteria of which there are around 1,000 species upon human skin from nineteen phyla. Most are found in the superficial layers of the epidermis and the upper parts of hair follicles. Skin flora is usually non-pathogenic, ...

  22. "Specifically, #glyphosate has been linked to alterations in plant endophytic and rhizosphere #microbiomes, as well as disruptions in the #GutMicrobiota of animals residing near #agricultural areas."

  23. New #studies show that a #bacterial molecule, #peptidoglycan, is present in the #brain and fluctuates with #sleep patterns. This challenges the idea that sleep is solely brain-driven, instead suggesting it’s a #collaborative process between our #bodies and #microbiomes. The theory links #microbes not only to sleep but also to #cognition, #appetite, and #behavior, pointing to a profound #evolutionary relationship

    "The drivers of young-onset #colorectal cancer are not well understood. Some believe that the rise is due to risk factors such as obesity and diabetes. Others believe it may be related to a change in the microbiome (the unique bacterial mix that lives in our bodies), or to antibiotic exposure and dietary choices. We just do not really know the cause. "
