We present oyster larval microbiota from two feeding studies, in which wild type and low-salinity tolerant lines were either fed or starved. In one study, all larvae unexpectedly died, which was concurrent with an event in which all larvae in an adjoining oyster hatchery also died. In the other study, no crash occurred in either the study or hatchery. In both cases, larvae were collected and stored frozen, and microbial and host DNA was isolated by phenol-chloroform extraction. Both host 18 s rRNA genes and microbial 16 and 18 s rRNA genes were sequenced using universal primers. We present raw sequences, the pipeline that was used to quantify amplicon sequence variants, and our analysis pipeline that we used to describe how the overall microbial community varied between projects (crashed and non-crashed), feeding status (fed vs not), and strain (wild vs not). These data will be valuable to anyone interested in the microbiota of larval oysters, especially anyone interested in exploring hatchery crashes, effects of starvation, or strain level differences. They also contain a reproducible pipeline of amplicon analysis of host associated microbiota which may serve as a template for other studies. These data are a co-submission to a manuscript submitted to by Matthew grey et al. (2021) entitled Hatchery crashes among shellfish research hatcheries along the Atlantic coast of the United States: a case study at Horn Point Laboratory oyster hatchery. (Manuscript#: AQUACULTURE-D-21-01351R1).

Background: Zostera marina is an important ecosystem engineer influencing shallow water environments and possibly shaping the microbiota in surrounding sediments and water. Z. marina is typically found in marine systems, but it can also proliferate under brackish conditions.

Background: The observed growth variability of different aquaculture species in captivity hinders its large-scale production. For the sandfish Holothuria scabra, a tropical sea cucumber species, there is a scarcity of information on its intestinal microbiota in relation to host growth, which could provide insights into the processes that affect growth and identify microorganisms with probiotic or biochemical potential that could improve current production strategies. To address this gap, this study used 16 S rRNA amplicon sequencing to characterize differences in gut and fecal microbiota among large and small juveniles reared in floating ocean nurseries.

Remote photobiomodulation ameliorates behavioral and neuropathological outcomes in a rat model of repeated closed head injury.

Repeated closed-head injuries (rCHI) from activities like contact sports, falls, military combat, and traffic accidents pose a serious risk due to their cumulative impact on the brain. Often, rCHI is not diagnosed until symptoms of irreversible brain damage appear, highlighting the need for preventive measures. This study assessed the prophylactic efficacy of remote photobiomodulation (PBM) targeted at the lungs against rCHI-induced brain injury and associated behavioral deficits.

Seasonal variation of microbial community and diversity in the Taiwan Strait sediments.

Key Laboratory of the Ministry of Education for Coastal and Wetland Ecosystems, College of the Environment and Ecology, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361102, China; State Key Laboratory of Marine Environmental Science and International Institute of Sustainability Science, College of the Environment and Ecology, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361102, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Human activities and ocean currents in the Taiwan Strait show seasonal variations, but how marine microbes respond to these changes under human and climate stress is not fully understood.
  • Using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, the study analyzed sediment samples and found distinct seasonal patterns in microbial diversity, with Proteobacteria and Desulfobacterota as dominant groups.
  • Key factors like iron concentrations, heavy metals, and temperature fluctuations significantly influenced microbial community structures, while certain core microbial groups and marker species could serve as indicators for monitoring the health of the Taiwan Strait ecosystem.

Background: Predicting response to targeted cancer therapies increasingly relies on both simple and complex genetic biomarkers. Comprehensive genomic profiling using high-throughput assays must be evaluated for reproducibility and accuracy compared with existing methods.

Methods: This study is a multicenter evaluation of the Oncomine™ Comprehensive Assay Plus (OCA Plus) Pan-Cancer Research Panel for comprehensive genomic profiling of solid tumors.
