Challenges and innovations for sustainable ruminant production based upon One Health principles Open
Almost 12 % of the human population have insufficient access to food and hence are at risk from nutrient deficiencies and related conditions, such as anaemia and stunting. Ruminant meat and milk are rich in protein and micronutrients, maki…

Unravelling AMR dynamics in the rumenofaecobiome: Insights, challenges and implications for One Health Open
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical global threat to human, animal and environmental health, exacerbated by horizontal gene transfer (HGT) via mobile genetic elements. This poses significant challenges that have a negative impact …

The Calicophoron daubneyi genome provides new insight into mechanisms of feeding, eggshell synthesis and parasite-microbe interactions Open
Background The rumen fluke, Calicophoron daubneyi , is the major paramphistome species infecting ruminants within Europe. Adult flukes reside within the rumen where they are in direct contact with a unique collection of microorganisms. Her…

Microbiome-derived antimicrobial peptides show therapeutic activity against the critically important priority pathogen, Acinetobacter baumannii Open
Acinetobacter baumannii is designated by the World Health Organisation as a critical priority pathogen. Previously we discovered antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), namely Lynronne-1, -2 and -3, with efficacy against bacterial pathogens, such a…

— Invited Review — Chemical signalling within the rumen microbiome Open
Ruminants possess a specialized four-compartment forestomach, consisting of the reticulum, rumen, omasum, and abomasum. The rumen, the primary fermentative chamber, harbours a dynamic ecosystem comprising bacteria, protozoa, fungi, archaea…

Resistome Analysis of Global Livestock and Soil Microbiomes Open
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious threat to public health globally; it is estimated that AMR bacteria caused 1.27 million deaths in 2019, and this is set to rise to 10 million deaths annually. Agricultural and soil environments a…

Whole-Genome Sequencing and Comparative Genomic Analysis of Antimicrobial Producing Streptococcus lutetiensis from the Rumen Open
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) can efficiently control different microbial pathogens and show the potential to be applied in clinical practice and livestock production. In this work, the aim was to isolate AMP-producing ruminal streptococci…

Phylogenetic systematics of Butyrivibrio and Pseudobutyrivibrio genomes illustrate vast taxonomic diversity, open genomes and an abundance of carbohydrate-active enzyme family isoforms Open
Butyrivibrio and Pseudobutyrivibrio dominate in anaerobic gastrointestinal microbiomes, particularly the rumen, where they play a key role in harvesting dietary energy. Within these genera, five rumen species have been classified ( Butyriv…

Draft genome sequence of Wickerhamomyces anomalus LBCM1105, isolated from cachaça fermentation Open
Wickerhamomyces anomalus LBCM1105 is a yeast isolated from cachaça distillery fermentation vats, notable for exceptional glycerol consumption ability. We report its draft genome with 20.5x in-depth coverage and around 90% extension and com…

Nisin penetration and efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus biofilms under continuous-flow conditions Open
Biofilms may enhance the tolerance of bacterial pathogens to disinfectants, biocides and other stressors by restricting the penetration of antimicrobials into the matrix-enclosed cell aggregates, which contributes to the recalcitrance of b…

High-affinity transport, cyanide-resistant respiration, and ethanol production under aerobiosis underlying efficient high glycerol consumption by <i>Wickerhamomyces anomalus</i> Open
Wickerhamomyces anomalus strain LBCM1105 was originally isolated from the wort of cachaça (the Brazilian fermented sugarcane juice-derived Brazilian spirit) and has been shown to grow exceptionally well at high amounts of glycerol. This pa…

Nisin penetrates<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>biofilms but shows differences in killing effects against sessile and planktonic cells Open
Biofilms may restrict antimicrobial penetration and contribute to the recalcitrance of bacterial infections. In this work, we investigated the penetration of nisin into S. aureus biofilms and compared the susceptibility of S. aureus plankt…
