Potentially beneficial microorganisms have been inoculated into agricultural soils for years.
However, concurrent with sequencing advances and successful manipulation of host …

Experimental evolution and the associated theory are underutilized in marine microbial
studies; the two fields have developed largely in isolation. Here, we review evolutionary …

Composting has been traditionally considered a process in which a succession of
mesophilic and thermophilic microbial populations occurs due to temperature changes. In …

Global warming is associated with an increase in sea surface temperature and its variability.
The consequences of evolving in variable, fluctuating environments are explored by a large …

Temperatures are increasing due to global changes, putting biodiversity at risk. Organisms
are faced with a limited set of options to cope with this situation: adapt, disperse or die. We …

Sunlight drives phototrophic metabolism, which affects redox conditions and produces
substrates for nonphototrophs. These environmental parameters fluctuate daily due to …

Marine microbes form the base of ocean food webs and drive ocean biogeochemical
cycling. Yet little is known about the ability of microbial populations to adapt as they are …

Thermal performance curves (TPCs) have been estimated in multiple ectotherm species to
understand their thermal plasticity and adaptation and to predict the effect of global warming …

Temperature influences the ecology and evolution of insects and their symbionts by
impacting each partner independently and their interactions, considering the holobiont as a …

Numerical models have been highly successful in simulating global carbon and nutrient
cycles in today's ocean, together with observed spatial and temporal patterns of chlorophyll …
