Soil microorganisms shape global element cycles in life and death. Living soil
microorganisms are a major engine of terrestrial biogeochemistry, driving the turnover of soil …

Soil viruses are highly abundant and have important roles in the regulation of host dynamics
and soil ecology. Climate change is resulting in unprecedented changes to soil ecosystems …

Abstract Proksee (https://proksee. ca) provides users with a powerful, easy-to-use, and
feature-rich system for assembling, annotating, analysing, and visualizing bacterial …

Identifying and characterizing mobile genetic elements in sequencing data is essential for
understanding their diversity, ecology, biotechnological applications and impact on public …

The spatiotemporal structure of the human microbiome,, proteome and metabolome, reflects
and determines regional intestinal physiology and may have implications for disease. Yet …

Bacteria and archaea have developed multiple antiviral mechanisms, and genomic
evidence indicates that several of these antiviral systems co-occur in the same strain. Here …

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in bacteriophages, which has led to
growing numbers of bacteriophage genomic sequences becoming available. Consequently …

Large serine recombinases (LSRs) are DNA integrases that facilitate the site-specific
integration of mobile genetic elements into bacterial genomes. Only a few LSRs, such as …

Forest soil microbiomes have crucial roles in carbon storage, biogeochemical cycling and
rhizosphere processes. Wildfire season length, and the frequency and size of severe fires …

The diverse rumen virome can modulate the rumen microbiome, but it remains largely
unexplored. Here, we mine 975 published rumen metagenomes for viral sequences, create …
