    Background Circadian rhythms of host immune activity and their microbiomes are likely pivotal to health and disease resistance. The integration of chronotherapeutic approaches to disease mitigation in managed animals, however, is yet to be realised. In aquaculture, light manipulation is commonly used to enhance growth and control reproduction but may have unknown negative consequences for animal…

    • Keeping fish under constant light — a practice used by fish farms to enhance growth or control reproduction — disrupts the daily rhythms of fish and leads to increased susceptibility to parasites. Read this article published in @MicrobiomeJ. https://t.co/xWQEqII8j7 https://t.co/tSgt7uPoVs

    Background Winter carbon loss in northern ecosystems is estimated to be greater than the average growing season carbon uptake and is primarily driven by microbial decomposers. Viruses modulate microbial carbon cycling via induced mortality and metabolic controls, but it is unknown whether viruses are active under winter conditions (anoxic and sub-freezing temperatures). Results We used stable…
