直到最近,人们对模型线虫秀丽隐杆线虫的天然微生物群几乎一无所知。 Dirksen 及其同事在 BMC Biology 上报告了他们的研究,描述了首次测序工作,以表征环境隔离的秀丽隐杆线虫和相关类群 Caenorhabditis briggsae 和 Caenorhabditis remanei 的肠道微生物群。与在数百个实验室研究的单细胞、无微生物群的培养物相比,秀丽隐杆线虫的自然种群似乎拥有独特的微生物群。
Until recently, almost nothing has been known about the natural microbiota of the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Reporting their research in BMC Biology, Dirksen and colleagues describe the first sequencing effort to characterize the gut microbiota of environmentally isolated C. elegans and the related taxa Caenorhabditis briggsae and Caenorhabditis remanei In contrast to the monoxenic, microbiota-free cultures that are studied in hundreds of laboratories, it appears that natural populations of Caenorhabditis harbor distinct microbiotas.
