The paper identifies tandem repeats in methanogenic archaea and their viruses, showing they contribute to genomic diversity and adaptation potential.

This study shows that the virus {Psi}M2 can enter a non-lytic lifecycle alternative to lysogeny in Methanothermobacter marburgensis under suboptimal conditions, with genetic variability in viral populations.

The paper identifies conserved extracellular electron transfer machinery in peatland microorganisms across depth profiles, showing transcriptional activity and potential role in carbon cycling.

The paper introduces MODIFI, a tool for detecting DNA modifications in metagenomes, and identifies ECE-host linkages in environmental and human samples.

The paper identifies active microbial communities and extrachromosomal elements in anoxic sediments, linking organic matter degradation to methane cycling through fermentation and methanogenesis.

The paper analyzes Borg archaeal extrachromosomal elements using in silico methods, revealing features similar to giant eukaryotic viruses, suggesting convergent evolution.

The paper reconstructs genomes of soil-associated Asgard archaea and uses metatranscriptomics to show their role in carbon compound metabolism relevant to methane production in wetlands.

The paper identifies conserved genetic repertoires in Borg extrachromosomal elements of methane-oxidizing archaea and shows their higher expression than host genes.

The paper identifies and characterizes diverse extrachromosomal elements in Methanoperedens archaea, including mini-Borgs and viruses, and shows their genetic exchange and potential impact on archaeal activity.
