Caty S, Alvarez-Buylla A, Vasek C, Tapia E, Martin N, McLaughlin T, et al.
Curr Biol . 2024 Dec; 35(1):187-197.e8. PMID: 39637856
Shifts in host-associated microbiomes can impact both host and microbes. It is of interest to understand how perturbations, like the introduction of exogenous chemicals, impact microbiomes. In poison frogs (family...

Lima L, Alker A, Morris M, Edwards R, de Putron S, Dinsdale E
Microorganisms . 2024 May; 12(5). PMID: 38792833
Coral reef health is tightly connected to the coral holobiont, which is the association between the coral animal and a diverse microbiome functioning as a unit. The coral holobiont depends...

Caty S, Alvarez-Buylla A, Vasek C, Tapia E, Martin N, McLaughlin T, et al.
bioRxiv . 2024 Jan; PMID: 38260330
Shifts in microbiome community composition can have large effects on host health. It is therefore important to understand how perturbations, like those caused by the introduction of exogenous chemicals, modulate...

Mayali X, Samo T, Kimbrel J, Morris M, Rolison K, Swink C, et al.
Nat Commun . 2023 Sep; 14(1):5642. PMID: 37704622
Bacterial remineralization of algal organic matter fuels algal growth but is rarely quantified. Consequently, we cannot currently predict whether some bacterial taxa may provide more remineralized nutrients to algae than...
5.
Lima L, Alker A, Papudeshi B, Morris M, Edwards R, de Putron S, et al.
Microb Ecol . 2022 Aug; 86(1):392-407. PMID: 35965269
The coral holobiont is comprised of a highly diverse microbial community that provides key services to corals such as protection against pathogens and nutrient cycling. The coral surface mucus layer...

Morris M, Kimbrel J, Geng H, Tran-Gyamfi M, Yu E, Sale K, et al.
mSphere . 2022 Jun; 7(4):e0023122. PMID: 35730934
Outdoor cultivation of microalgae has promising potential for renewable bioenergy, but there is a knowledge gap on the structure and function of the algal microbiome that coinhabits these ecosystems. Here,...

Doane M, Johnson C, Johri S, Kerr E, Morris M, DeSantiago R, et al.
Microb Ecol . 2022 Feb; 85(2):747-764. PMID: 35129649
The epidermis of Chondrichthyan fishes consists of dermal denticles with production of minimal but protein-rich mucus that collectively, influence the attachment and biofilm development of microbes, facilitating a unique epidermal...

Alvarez-Perez S, Baker L, Morris M, Tsuji K, Sanchez V, Fukami T, et al.
Int J Syst Evol Microbiol . 2021 May; 71(5). PMID: 33970854
A detailed evaluation of eight bacterial isolates from floral nectar and animal visitors to flowers shows evidence that they represent three novel species in the genus . Phylogenomic analysis shows...

Doane M, Morris M, Papudeshi B, Allen L, Pande D, Haggerty J, et al.
Microbiome . 2020 Jun; 8(1):93. PMID: 32534596
Background: The vertebrate clade diverged into Chondrichthyes (sharks, rays, and chimeras) and Osteichthyes fishes (bony fishes) approximately 420 mya, with each group accumulating vast anatomical and physiological differences, including skin...

Lima L, Weissman M, Reed M, Papudeshi B, Alker A, Morris M, et al.
mBio . 2020 Mar; 11(2). PMID: 32127450
Host-associated microbial communities are shaped by extrinsic and intrinsic factors to the holobiont organism. Environmental factors and microbe-microbe interactions act simultaneously on the microbial community structure, making the microbiome dynamics...
