Intricate interactions among commensal bacteria, dietary substrates and immune responses are central to defining microbiome community composition, which plays a key role in preventing enteric pathogen infection, a dynamic phenomenon referred to as colonisation resistance. However, the impact of diet on sculpting microbiota membership, and ultimately colonisation resistance has been overlooked. Furthermore, pathogens have evolved strategies to evade colonisation resistance and outcompete commensal microbiota by using unique nutrient utilisation pathways, by exploiting microbial metabolites as nutrient sources or by environmental cues to induce virulence gene expression. In this review, we will discuss the interplay between diet, microbiota and their associated metabolites, and how these can contribute to or preclude pathogen survival.

While screening the rectal site and urine may be appropriate for detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales, respiratory samples, throat and wound swabs may increase the sensitivity of screening protocols when aiming to detect colonization with carbapenemase-producing non-fermenting bacteria. Our results support the need for tailoring screening recommendations according to the bacterial species targeted.

Molybdenum (Mo) acts as a crucial nutrient for plant development, yet excessive soil exposure can cause detrimental effects. Molybdenosis symptoms remain subtle in many plants, largely due to the safeguarding functions of soil organisms, the fundamental biological mechanisms lack clarity. In this study, we explored the potential mechanisms for amending Mo-exposed soils with soil microbe-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and soil fauna, specifically earthworms, to enhance model plant-alfalfa growth resistance through soil nutrient turnover perspectives.
