TL;DR: A high-quality genome sequence of domesticated tomato is presented, a draft sequence of its closest wild relative, Solanum pimpinellifolium, is compared, and the two tomato genomes are compared to each other and to the potato genome.

TL;DR: It is shown that the Hadza have higher levels of microbial richness and biodiversity than Italian urban controls, and enrichment in Prevotella, Treponema and unclassified Bacteroidetes, as well as a peculiar arrangement of Clostridiales taxa, may enhance the hadza’s ability to digest and extract valuable nutrition from fibrous plant foods.

TL;DR: An analysis of pyrosequencing data of PCR amplicons derived from two hypervariable regions of the 16 S rRNA gene revealed a predominance of bifidobacteria in the infant gut as well as a profile of co-occurrence of b ifidobacterial species in the infants’s intestine.

TL;DR: The first metagenomic analysis of GM from Hadza hunter-gatherers of Tanzania shows a unique enrichment in metabolic pathways that aligns with the dietary and environmental factors characteristic of their foraging lifestyle, providing a better understanding of the versatility of human life and subsistence.

TL;DR: It is reported, for the first time, that a peculiar dysbiosis of the gut microbiota is present in patients with Behçet syndrome and this corresponds to specific changes in microbiome profile.
