The latest instalment in our journey to create mosquitoes with designer microbiomes!! 🦟🦠🧪 “A cryopreservation method to recover laboratory- and field-derived bacterial communities from mosquito larval habitats” Great work @szymbiosis & @Mosmicrobes! journals.plos.org/plosntds/a…

When we swap their microbiomes, what do the mosquitoes actually think about that?? Take a look at our new preprint; congratulations @Shiva_hegde @laura_brettell @SQuek_001 Miguel Saldaña @EtebariK @SassanAsgari @MosMicrobes @mosquitomicrobe biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Our latest step towards establishing a field microbiome in the lab. Here we show that cryopreserved microbiomes from mosquito larval habitats can be stored and reconstituted in the lab. The resulting microbiomes are remarkable consistent too👍 Nice work @MosMicrobes & @szymbiosis
