For a long time, the formation, change, and maintenance mechanisms of microbial communities induced by microgravity have only been studied to a limited extent in the International Space Station, ...

A new study shows that real-world ocean conditions make a huge difference in how viral infection affects host bacteria. The findings indicate it is very important to study cells and virocells under ...

Microbial mats are highly organised, layered biofilms formed by diverse communities of microorganisms. These systems, often dominated by cyanobacteria, orchestrate a variety of biogeochemical ...
