6. Interactions between dietary chicory, gut microbiota and immune responses
Sammanfattning : This thesis provides a better understanding of interactions between diet, gut microbiota, and immune responses to a specific dietary fiber source, chicory (Cichorium intybus L). This was achieved by examining the impact of chicory fiber on animal performance, digestibility, gut development, commensal bacteria community structure in small and large intestine, and follow-up reactions with specific immune components, cytoprotective heat shock protein (HSP) 27 and 72, in vivo and in vitro.

7. Factors influencing the biogeography of bacteria in fresh waters - a metacommunity approach
Sammanfattning : One of ecology’s primary goals is to comprehend biodiversity and its patterns of distribution over space and time. Since microorganisms play a pivotal role in key ecological processes, the diversity of microbial communities may have important implications for the stability and functioning of Earth’s ecosystems.

8. Colostrum quality, intestinal microbiota and implications for health in young dairy calves
Sammanfattning : The early life of calves in southern Vietnam and in Sweden were studied in this thesis, with the focus on colostrum quality, gut microbial communities and antimicrobialresistant Escherichia coli. The first of four studies showed that most cows on smallholder farms in Vietnam produced colostrum of good quality and that only around 10% of calves suffered from failure of passive immune transfer.

9. Use of microbiomics to study human impacts on complex microbial communities
Sammanfattning : The study of bacterial communities in nature is currently a challenge. The majority of bacteria in clinical and environmental samples have not yet been cultured and therefore we cannot fully understand their roles in nature and how the ecological balance in a specific microbial ecosystem can be disrupted.

10. Fermented probiotic beverage based on quinoa : Functionality, hygiene, and health effects
Sammanfattning : White quinoa grains were used as a source of novel beneficial microorganisms and as a matrix for development of a fermented plant-based drink. Studies on the quinoa grain microbiota were performed by applying spontaneous fermentation to allow isolation of autochthonous Lactiplantibacillus strains with potential to be used as starter cultures.
