This study shows that low burn intensity increases N2O emissions through denitrification, while high burn intensity reduces emissions due to microbial loss and resource limitation.

The paper updates a viral sequence database to include only virus size-fractionated metagenome-derived sequences and presents new data on its utility.

The paper compares DNA extraction and virome processing methods to show how they affect the characterization of human gut viral communities, finding that MDA significantly biases results.

The paper proposes a roadmap for fair reuse of public microbiome data by introducing a Data Reuse Information tag (DRI) to facilitate communication between data creators and consumers.

The paper examines how soil viral and prokaryotic communities respond to prescribed burns, finding that local burn severity drives heterogeneous responses.

The paper examines how soil viral and prokaryotic communities respond to heating, finding that most dsDNA viral particles do not persist at 90°C.

This study examines how extraction buffer chemistry affects extractable viral communities in different soil types, finding that spatial distance is the primary driver of community composition.
