This paper discovers a new archaeal virus that suppresses host immunity gene transcription, leading to faster growth of its host when the virus is removed.

This study uses pan-genomics to identify 50 genomic islands in Halorubrum ezzemoulense, revealing rare accessory genes and homeocassettes that contribute to adaptability and speciation.

This study compares homologous recombination and heteropolyploidy maintenance between Haloferax volcanii and Haloferax mediterranei, finding differences in recombination rates and genetic linkage.
