A team from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology has discovered a new class of bacterial mobile genetic elements that use giant viruses—known as jumbo phages—to move between cells. The ...
In natural environments, bacteria rarely live as free-swimming cells but are attached to surfaces as biofilms in medical ...
Like all living things, bacteria adapt to survive. Over time, bacteria have been developing resistance to common antibiotics ...
Researchers at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) have imaged a heritable form of bacterial symbiosis inside the ...
Scientists at EPFL have unraveled the mystery behind why biological nanopores, tiny molecular holes used in both nature and biotechnology, sometimes behave unpredictably. By experimenting with ...
A new study by Professor Ludmilla Aristilde and her team shows how soil microbes steer carbon flow to adapt and create ...
What: Scientists discovered a bacterium (Hydrogenobacter) in Yellowstone that breathes both oxygen (aerobic) and elemental ...
