  2. Microbial toxin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_toxin

    The most prominent natural toxin groups that exist in aquatic environments are mycotoxins, algal toxins, bacterial toxins, and plant toxins (8). These marine biotoxins are dangerous to human health and have been widely studied due to their high potential to bioaccumulate in edible parts of seafood. [16]

  3. Microbiota - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbiota

    All plants and animals, from simple life forms to humans, live in close association with microbial organisms. [12] Several advances have driven the perception of microbiomes, including: the ability to perform genomic and gene expression analyses of single cells and of entire microbial communities in the disciplines of metagenomics and ...

  4. Microbial ecology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_ecology

    Microorganisms are the backbone of all ecosystems, but even more so in areas where photosynthesis cannot take places due to lack of light. In such zones, chemosynthetic microbes provide energy, and carbon to the other organisms. Chemosynthetic microorganisms gain energy by oxidizing inorganic compounds such as hydrogen, nitrite, ammonia ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbiome

    These microbes, referred to as the plant's microbiota, live both inside (the endosphere) and outside (the episphere) of plant tissues, and play important roles in the ecology and physiology of plants. [92] "The core plant microbiome is thought to comprise keystone microbial taxa that are important for plant fitness and established through ...

  6. Plant microbiome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_microbiome

    Plants live in association with diverse microbial consortia. These microbes, referred to as the plant's microbiota, live both inside (the endosphere) and outside (the episphere) of plant tissues, and play important roles in the ecology and physiology of plants. [5] "The core plant microbiome is thought to comprise keystone microbial taxa that ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microorganism

    Microbes are important in human culture and health in many ways, serving to ferment foods and treat sewage, and to produce fuel, enzymes, and other bioactive compounds. Microbes are essential tools in biology as model organisms and have been put to use in biological warfare and bioterrorism. Microbes are a vital component of fertile soil.

    After Raw Farm milk and cream were recalled due to bird flu, the farm was quarantined for weeks and California health officials warned consumers against drinking the products or feeding it pets.

  9. Dysbiosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dysbiosis

    Similar to the human gut microbiome, diverse microbes colonize the plant rhizosphere, and dysbiosis in the rhizosphere, can negatively impact plant health. [3] Dysbiosis is most commonly reported as a condition in the gastrointestinal tract [2] or plant rhizosphere. [3] Typical microbial colonies found on or in the body are benign or beneficial.
