Mangrovimonas cancribranchiae sp. nov., a novel bacterial species associated with the gills of the fiddler crab Cranuca inversa (Brachyura, Ocypodidae) from Red Sea mangroves (2024)
Journal Article
Yang, X., Garuglieri, E., Van Goethem, M. W., Marasco, R., Fusi, M., & Daffonchio, D. (2024). Mangrovimonas cancribranchiae sp. nov., a novel bacterial species associated with the gills of the fiddler crab Cranuca inversa (Brachyura, Ocypodidae) from Red Sea mangroves. International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 74(6), https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.006415

Two bacteria, UG2_1T and UG2_2, were isolated from the gill tissues of the mangrove fiddler crab Cranuca inversa collected on the east coast of the Red Sea (Thuwal, Saudi Arabia). The cells are Gram-negative, rod-shaped, orange-pigmented, motile by g...

Effects of catchment land use on temperate mangrove forests (2024)
Journal Article
Thomson, T., Ellis, J. I., Fusi, M., Prinz, N., Lundquist, C. J., Bury, S. J., Shankar, U., Cary, S. C., & Pilditch, C. A. (2024). Effects of catchment land use on temperate mangrove forests. Science of the Total Environment, 940, Article 173579. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.173579

Human land use changes are threatening the integrity and health of coastal ecosystems worldwide. Intensified land use for anthropogenic purposes increases sedimentation rates, pollutants, and nutrient concentrations into adjacent coastal areas, often...

Consistent effects of independent domestication events on the plant microbiota (2024)
Journal Article
Soldan, R., Fusi, M., Cardinale, M., Homma, F., Santos, L. G., Wenzl, P., Bach-Pages, M., Bitocchi, E., Chacon Sanchez, M. I., Daffonchio, D., & Preston, G. M. (2024). Consistent effects of independent domestication events on the plant microbiota. Current Biology, 34(3), 557-567.e4. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2023.12.056

The effect of plant domestication on plant-microbe interactions remains difficult to prove. In this study, we provide evidence of a domestication effect on the composition and abundance of the plant microbiota. We focused on the genus Phaseolus, whic...
