Metagenomic Profiling of Fecal and Cecal Microbiota and Their Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in Indigenous Backyard Poultry
Indigenous backyard poultry is the predominant type of poultry in developing countries. Rural smallholder farmers in these regions usually adopt the free-range (backyard) production system, which exposes the poultry to diverse environments and a broad spectrum of microorganisms that influence their…

Characterizing the Bacterial Microbiome of the Invasive Vector Aedes albopictus in Hungary: A Pilot Study Using Oxford Nanopore Sequencing
Aedes albopictus has recently established self-sustaining populations in Hungary, but its microbiota—which may influence vector competence—remains poorly understood. We used Oxford Nanopore long-read sequencing for full-length 16S rRNA gene profiling of adult Ae. albopictus from two urban sites…
