Global climate change has led to more extreme thermal events. Plants and animals harbour diverse microbial communities, which may be vital for their physiological performance help them survive stressful climatic conditions. The extent microbiome communities in response warming or cooling important predicting host under global change. Using a meta-analysis of 1377 microbiomes from 43 terrestrial aquatic species, we found decrease the amplicon sequence variant-level phylogenetic diversity alteration composition both experimental cooling. Microbiome beta dispersion was not affected by temperature changes. We showed that habitat factors than biological traits. In particular, organisms-especially marine habitats-experienced greater depletion cold conditions, compared hosts. Exposure involving sudden long static shift associated with loss, but this reduction attenuated prior-experimental lab acclimation when ramped regime (i.e., warming) used. Microbial differential abundance co-occurrence network analyses revealed several potential indicator bacterial classes hosts heated environments on different biome levels. Overall, our findings improve understanding impact changes animal plant structures across range habitats. next step is link these measures fitness, as well community functions, determine whether can buffer some species against thermally variable world.

Abstract Climate change and climate‐driven increases in infectious disease threaten wildlife populations globally. Gut microbial responses are predicted to either buffer or exacerbate the negative impacts of these twin pressures on host populations. However, examples that document how gut communities respond long‐term shifts climate associated risk, consequences for survival, rare. Over past two decades, wild meerkats inhabiting Kalahari have experienced rapidly rising temperatures, which is linked spread tuberculosis (TB). We show over same period, faecal microbiota this population has become enriched Bacteroidia impoverished lactic acid bacteria (LAB), a group including Lactococcus Lactobacillus considered mutualists. These occurred within individuals yet were compounded generations, better explained by mean maximum temperatures than rainfall previous year. Enriched additionally with TB exposure disease, dry season poorer body condition, factors all directly reduced future survival. Lastly, abundances LAB taxa independently positively while did not predict Together, results point towards extreme driving an expansion disease‐associated pathobiome loss beneficial taxa.

Marine Pollution Bulletin, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 193, С. 115192 - 115192

Опубликована: Июнь 24, 2023

Extreme events like Marine Heatwaves (MHWs) are becoming more intense, severe, and frequent, threatening benthic communities, specifically bivalves. However, the consequences of non-lethal MHWs on animals still poorly understood. Here, we exposed Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum to MHW for 30 days provided an integrative view its effects. Our result indicated that albeit non-lethal, reduced clam's energy reserves (by reducing their hepato-somatic index), triggered antioxidant defenses (particularly in males), impaired reproduction (via production smaller oocytes females), dysbiosis digestive gland microbiota altered animals' behaviour impacting burying capacity) filtration rate. Such effects were seen also at RNA-seq (i.e. many down-regulated genes belonged reproduction) metabolome level. Interestingly, negative pronounced males than females. results show influence animal physiology multiple levels, likely fitness ecosystem services.
