Excited to share our new paper out in @isme-microbes.bsky.social. We asked if environmental microbial communities can be adaptively modulated by host species that transiently acquire their symbionts from the environment #SymbioSky #MicrobiomeSky doi.org/10.1093/isme...

Host-mediated niche construction of bacterial communities in an aquatic microecosystem

Abstract. Microbes coordinate homeostasis in host-associated and environmental ecosystems alike, but the connectivity of these biomes is seldom considered.

I’m thrilled to share my first review about microbial ecology + mosquito-borne disease control! Bacteria block pathogen development in the mosquito gut, but which bacteria will produce long-lasting results in the field? Let’s think about colonization and persistence in the mosquito gut! (1/4)

Finally joined bsky to share a fun article from our university about MosAIC (Mosquito Associated Isolate Collection)! Read more about this highly collaborative project here: news.cals.wisc.edu/2024/12/17/n...

New community resource could create novel ways to stop the spread of pathogens carried by mosquitoes
