TL;DR: This study demonstrates that Arabidopsis thaliana specifically promotes three bacterial species in the rhizosphere upon foliar defense activation by the downy mildew pathogen Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis, and indicates that plants can adjust their root microbiome upon pathogen infection and specifically recruit a group of disease resistance-inducing and growth-promoting beneficial microbes.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that As and Cd exposure caused significant changes to the gut microbiome and metabolome by affecting bile acids, amino acids and taxa associated with metabolic health.

TL;DR: In insights into the ability of co-localized isolates to influence co-culture biofilm production with high relevance for food safety and food production facilities, two specific isolates were found to be present in synergistic combinations with higher frequencies.

TL;DR: A novel integrated omics pipeline for the analysis of human and environmental samples in under 48 h is applied and achieves time intervals matching those of classic microbiological culturing.

TL;DR: Meta-proteomics profiling indicated that community development is dependent on cooperative interactions between community members facilitating cross-feeding on specific amino acids, and the multitude of pathways involved in biofilm formation in mixed communities was demonstrated.
