TLDR
The metagenomically characterized the murine and human mucosal-associated gastrointestinal microbiome and found it to only partially correlate with stool microbiome, indicating that empiric probiotics supplementation may be limited in universally and persistently impacting the gut mucosa.

Ecological modelling approaches for predicting emergent properties in microbial communities

TL;DR: A review of ecosystem modelling approaches from the viewpoint of emergent properties can be found in this paper , where the authors consider the scope, advantages and limitations of Lotka-Volterra, consumer-resource, trait-based, individual-based and genome-scale metabolic models.

Higher-Order Interactions Dampen Pairwise Competition in the Zebrafish Gut Microbiome.

TL;DR: This work examines commensal intestinal microbes in larval zebrafish to allow the introduction of controlled combinations of bacterial species, and demonstrates the construction of communities of one to five bacterial species and shows that the outcomes from the two-species competitions fail to predict species abundances in more complex communities.

Connecting the Dots Between Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Metabolic Syndrome: A Focus on Gut-Derived Metabolites.

TL;DR: This review focuses on the overlap between IBD and MetS, and the role of common metabolites in each disease is explored in an attempt to connect a common origin, the gut microbiome and derived metabolites that affect the gut, liver and pancreas.

Bacteriophages: Uncharacterized and Dynamic Regulators of the Immune System.

TL;DR: An overview of bacteriophage communities in the gut during human development is provided, detailing recent findings for their bacterial-mediated effects on the immune response and summarizing the latest evidence for direct interactions between them and the immune system are summarized.

Trimmomatic: a flexible trimmer for Illumina sequence data

TL;DR: Timmomatic is developed as a more flexible and efficient preprocessing tool, which could correctly handle paired-end data and is shown to produce output that is at least competitive with, and in many cases superior to, that produced by other tools, in all scenarios tested.
