The paper investigates phage succession in infants over three years, finding that 9% of early phage colonizers persist, with maternal transmission and stop codon reassignment playing key roles.

This study identifies microbial gene clusters involved in lanthanide metabolism in weathered granites, highlighting their role in phosphate mineral dissolution and soil formation.

This paper identifies large plasmids in Methanoperedens archaea that are essential for their physiology and may be used to study and manipulate methane oxidation.

This study investigates the metabolic diversity of the Chloroflexi supergroup, revealing novel genes for non-photosynthesis based CO2 fixation and diverse metabolic capabilities across related phyla.
