Temporal changes in the microbiome of stingless bee foragers following colony relocation (2020)
Journal Article
A Hall, M., E Brettell, L., Liu, H., Nacko, S., Spooner-Hart, R., Riegler, M., & M Cook, J. (2021). Temporal changes in the microbiome of stingless bee foragers following colony relocation. FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 97(1), https://doi.org/10.1093/femsec/fiaa236

Maintaining beneficial interactions with microbial symbionts is vital for animal health. Yet, for social insects, the stability of microbial associations within and between cohorts is largely unknown. We investigated temporal changes in the microbiom...

Nitrogen addition alters composition, diversity, and functioning of microbial communities in mangrove soils : an incubation experiment (2020)
Journal Article

Mangrove ecosystems are important for carbon storage due to their high productivity and low decomposition rates. Waterways have experienced increased nutrient loads as a result of anthropogenic activities and it is unclear how this may affect carbon...

Electrochemically detecting DNA methylation in the EN1 gene promoter: Implications for understanding ageing and disease (2020)
Journal Article
Morgan, A. E., Acutt, K. D., & Mc Auley, M. (2020). Electrochemically detecting DNA methylation in the EN1 gene promoter: Implications for understanding ageing and disease. Bioscience Reports, 40(11), https://doi.org/10.1042/BSR20202571

There is a growing need for biomarkers which predict age-onset pathology. Although this is challenging, the methylome offers significant potential. Cancer is associated with the hypermethylation of many gene promoters, among which are developmental g...
