In all, the megacluster provides a sophisticated siege on an essential pathway in many bacteria, including Streptomyces’ foes ...

Oysters filter seawater for food. In the process, they concentrate a wide variety of microorganisms from their environment—including bacteria and viruses—into a tiny space.

Max Planck scientists in Marburg have used a synthetic microbial community to study the gradual evolution of mutualism. The study demonstrates for the first time in detail how an evolutionary loss of ...

The study of microbial ecology and holobiont evolution explores the dynamic relationships between microbial communities and their multicellular hosts across ecological and evolutionary timescales.

In this seminar, Dr. Mason will cover new discoveries in RNA-sequencing (metatranscriptomics) and DNA-sequencing (metagenomics) across dozens of cities on Earth as part of the MetaSUB Consortium, ...

Experimental evolution of microbial adaptation employs controlled laboratory regimes to observe real‐time evolutionary change in bacteria, yeasts and other microbes. By propagating populations under ...
