The genus Bacteroides comprises canonical commensals of the gastrointestinal microbiota that maintain intestinal homeostasis and contribute to host health. Yet, emergent evidence has revealed that these same bacteria can also increase host ...

Daily dynamics in the composition and function of the human gut microbiota have been recognized since 2014, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying these rhythms and their impact on human health remain unclear. Disrupted microbial oscillati...

Root exudates are vital for guiding microbial dynamics in the rhizosphere. Nevertheless, the key component in root exudates responsible for defining the root microbiome has remained obscure. Tsai et al. recently offered insights into how Ca...

Microbial hitchhikers are rewriting the rules of horizontal gene transfer. He, Patkowski, et al. reveal how phage satellites assemble chimeric infective particles that deliver DNA across species boundaries through 'tail piracy'. This discov...
