TL;DR: Findings suggest the use of L. gasseri LA39 and L. frumenti as antibiotic alternatives for preventing diarrhea in mammals.

TL;DR: The functional maturation of the gut bacterial community was characterized by the significantly increased digestive system, glycan biosynthesis and metabolism, and vitamin B biosynthesis as the piglets aged, suggesting that marked gut microbial changes in Congjiang miniature piglets may contribute to understand the potential gut microbiota development of weaned infants.

TL;DR: It is proposed that low temperature increases bacterial richness while decreasing catabolic diversity and that chronic pollution promotes catabolic diversification and that the bacterial populations in chronically polluted sites may respond more promptly in degrading petroleum after accidental oil spills.

TL;DR: It is shown that intermuscular bone is formed in the more basal teleosts by intramembranous ossification and may be involved in muscle contractibility and coordinating cellular events in M. amblycephala.

TL;DR: This work provides more detailed seasonal data on biodiversity in the Nansha wetland of the Pearl River Estuary, and adds to the evidence that the eDNA metabarcoding approach can be used in coastal environments to monitor a broad range of taxa and reflect seasonal fluctuations in fish diversity.
