Excerpts

Worth noting is that although Corynebacterium showed a trend of decrease in the nasal cavity, but at the C60 time point, there was a dramatic rise of Corynebacterium in nasal and oropharyngeal microbiota collaboratively ( Figures 2A,B ), together with much lower index Chao ( Figures 2C,D ), at the same time Staphylococcus in the nasal cavity and Streptococcus in oropharynx greatly reduced.

The fact that the impact of the substrate on the acdS+ community was highly significant implies that soil texture has a major impact on rhizosphere properties and plant-microbe interactions.

Figure 7B shows that the K hib level of FoFGB1 was highly significant in the mycelial stage and was not associated with protein abundance.

However, an increasing prevalence of MDR Salmonella resistant toward clinically important antimicrobials such as fluoroquinolones and third-generation cephalosporins highlights a worrying trend toward Salmonella infections that are increasingly difficult to treat with antibiotics ( Jajere, 2019 ).

As shown in Figure 5A , a significant trend toward separation was observed between every pair of groups.

At the end of the experiment, we found that compared with the HFD group, the RSV group exhibited a decreasing trend in indicators such as final body weight ( Figure 1B ) and serum ALT, AST, TG, CHOL, and LDL-C levels, but the differences were not statistically significant ( Table 1 ).

Changes in dehydrogenase activity throughout the experiment had a decreasing trend, being consistent with the notions reported by Chen et al.

Additionally, the TP and AP showed an increasing trend with the increase of cultivation years, which may result from low Pi utilization, the misuse of inorganic fertilizers, and soil P sorption capacity increasing due to the low soil pH ( Hou et al., 2020 ; Zhang W. et al., 2020 ).

Moreover, Talaromyces , Oidiodendron , and Rhodotorula were initially increasing and then declining in significance, while Fusarium showed a trend of first decline and then rise in significance ( Figure 4D and Supplementary Table 4 ).

AMF diversity indices showed a trend of cubic function on species and OTU level with the increase of altitudes.

Studies have shown that it is usually observed that as the altitude increases, the diversity of AMF presents a decreasing trend in temperate climate ( Liu et al., 2015 ; Vieira et al., 2019 ).

The results showed a trend of consistently decreasing average HSI for all nineteen SARS-CoV-2 probes.

Except for cyanolichen crusts which have a special survival strategy, with the succession of natural biocrusts, the abundances of nrfAH and nosZ increased, while other genes such as glt , ureABC , gls , amoABC , hao , narB , nirA , nirBD showed a decreasing trend.

For heat treatment, the evaluated proportion of heat injured cells had an increasing trend with increasing treatment time (0–150 min).

In our study, AST content in both groups was within the normal range; however, it showed a trend of significant decrease after YC addition, which is a positive signal for liver function.

It is intriguing to observe marginally significant and positive correlations of soil ammonium concentration with bacterial and fungal alpha diversity metrics in the root endosphere or rhizosphere.

Apart from that, MRSA has exhibited an increasing trend in numerous countries and emerged as an important pathogen accounting for up to 40% of all S. aureus isolates in nosocomial infection and caused significant morbidity ( Graveland et al., 2011 ).

baumannii isolates can be quite significant in clinical settings.

Heterogeneity of macrophages allows these cells to maintain different roles necessary for the tissue they reside, and the degree to which macrophages differ can be quite significant depending on their niche.

On day 4 PI, there was a numerical trend for an increased acetic acid percentage in the challenged groups (P treatment = 0.057), and at day 8 PI, the PRO group showed a higher acetic acid concentration compared to other inoculated piglets ( p = 0.004).

Regarding total SCFA, the SYN and CTR− groups showed a trend for a decreased concentration compared to the other groups (P treatment = 0.085) at day 4 PI but not at day 8 PI.

( 2017 ) also demonstrated that microbial families belonging to Verrucomicrobiaceae and Enterobacteriaceae showed a trend toward increased abundance in helminth-infected individuals, but Leuconostocaceae and Bacteroidaceae showed a relative increase in helminth-negative and treated patients, respectively.

The former showed an increasing trend, while the latter showed a decreasing trend ( Figure 4 ).

The significance level was p ≤ 0.05, while 0.05 < p ≤ 0.1 were considered marginally significant.

An expected trend was observed in which, at a lower pH, the absorbance at 420 nm was lower in the inoculation and co-inoculations with the Lt.
