Microbiota-derived β carotene is required for strobilation of Aurelia aurita by impacting host retinoic acid signaling
Summary: The strobilation process, an asexual reproduction mechanism in Aurelia aurita, transitions from the sessile polyp to the pelagic medusa stage. This study explored the essential role of the microbiome in strobilation, particularly through bacterial beta carotene’s impact on the host’s retino...
