Nucleocytoviricota are identified as central, highly influential entities shaping microbial community structure in wastewater treatment plants, with 61 genomes recovered from 23 sites.
- Open access
Soil microbial P-cycling gene distributions vary with land use and environmental factors, with mineralization and solubilisation genes showing land-use-related differences across Australian soils.
Nanoscale pesticide delivery with MT@SPc suppresses phytopathogens and enriches beneficial bacteria in the rhizosphere compared to commercial formulations.
Candidatus Nitromaricola pontica is a globally abundant marine nitrite-oxidising bacterium capable of oxidising nitrite in both oxic and anoxic waters, with higher abundance in oxygenated zones.
Many marine fungi, especially Pezizomycotina, possess a previously unrecognized DMSP lyase, DddF, enabling them to significantly contribute to DMS production in marine environments.
- Open access
Community composition, especially the presence of specific Corynebacterium propinquum strains, predicts exclusion of Staphylococcus aureus in synthetic nasal communities.
Silicate fertilizer enriches Burkholderia vietnamiensis, which alone can suppress methane emissions and boost methanotrophs in rice paddies.
Vancomycin induces heterogeneous upregulation of fructose metabolism genes in Staphylococcus aureus biofilms, creating metabolically active and reduced subpopulations that influence antibiotic tolerance.
Antibiotic production by Streptomyces coelicolor significantly increases fitness against resource exploiters, especially under low resource concentrations.
Bacteroidota independently evolved into highly specialized insect endosymbionts with minimal genomes, exhibiting parallel gene degradation across diverse scale insect lineages.
Nitrate reductase in coral symbionts is regulated by nitrogen availability, light, and photosynthesis, enabling rapid and reversible nitrate assimilation in nutrient-variable environments.
Pathogen invasion in maize increases network complexity and negative interactions, with potential biocontrol taxa enriched in the rhizosphere microbiome during Fusarium stalk rot stress.
Microplastics influence soil resistome by altering phage-host interactions through different carbon availabilities, with biodegradable MPs promoting transduction and nondegradable MPs enhancing bacterial fitness.
Prophage content in bacterial isolates is negatively associated with homologous recombination rates, indicating a taxon-specific intragenomic conflict influencing DNA acquisition.
Carrying multiple similar weapons in Pseudomonas aeruginosa offers no consistent advantage in inhibiting other strains, but shows environmental condition-dependent specialization.
Genotypic variation in rice influences biological nitrification inhibition efficiency through root exudate traits and compounds, notably NBDA, in the rhizosphere.
Members of Ca. Methanoperedenaceae can couple anaerobic oxidation of methane to arsenate reduction, with Ca. M. nitroreducens directly responsible, confirmed by enrichment cultures.
Temperate bacteriophages confer a competitive advantage to Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains during infection, promoting clonal dominance through intraspecies interactions.
Heavy-metal stress increases microbial respiration and CO₂ emissions, but remediation shifts microbial traits to enhance soil carbon storage potential.
DCA exposure promotes a metabolic interaction between Escherichia coli and Clostridioides difficile that enhances CDI severity through proline cross-feeding.
- Open access
Electrical signalling extends microbial interaction ranges beyond diffusion-limited chemical communication, with a measurable "handover distance" that links electrophysiology to ecological interactions.
- Open access
Siderophore exploitability in microbial communities is highly context-dependent, with stable coexistence observed when exploitation is constrained, as shown in a synthetic community.
K-12 can develop genetic resistance to predation by B. bacteriovorus through mutations that down-regulate outer membrane porin OmpF and alter lipopolysaccharide, especially after two predator exposure cycles.
Cross-domain microbial cooperation in the bark beetle holobiont supports nutrient acquisition and metabolism, with metabolic complementarity observed among symbionts and host.
Environmental gradients, specifically tidal zonation, are the primary macroevolutionary force shaping the deep phylogeny of the marine bacterium Ruegeria, surpassing host association effects.
Prior evolution of ampicillin resistance in a 23-species bacterial community strongly buffers compositional change during antibiotic pulses, with resistance and detoxification playing key roles.
Meta-analysis of 79 octocoral bacterial genomes shows group-specific denitrification, nitrate assimilation, and nutrient cycling capacities, highlighting microbiome roles in host resilience.
Disruption of inner core biosynthesis genes in Escherichia coli significantly delays predation by four Bdellovibrio predators, with shorter LPS structures conferring greater resistance.
