Dark carbon fixation dominates life under the ice in China’s largest saline lake
Under-ice measurements in Qinghai Lake show that dark-driven microbial carbon fixation contributes about 61 percent of total carbon uptake during ...
Akkermansia muciniphila stays a beneficial symbiont, perspective argues, as context determines its effects
A new perspective argues that Akkermansia muciniphila's harmful behaviour during acute radiation injury reflects context-dependent opportunism rather than intrinsic toxicity.
Postbiotics Move From Microbial Ecology Toward the Food Industry Mainstream
A new review in Food Production, Processing and Nutrition synthesizes evidence on the ecology, biosynthesis, and food preservation applications of ...
Linalool reshapes microbial networks during cigar tobacco fermentation, study finds
A multi-omics study links linalool treatment in cigar tobacco fermentation to a more modular microbial network and phase-dependent metabolic changes, ...
