How do evolutionary forces shape bacterial adaptation to the plant environment? 🌱🦠 Curious? Read our new review in @femsjournals.bsky.social Microbiology Reviews. #PlantMicrobiome #MicrobialEvolution #HostMicrobeInteractions #Rhizosphere #Microbiome 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/fems...

Evolutionary mechanisms underlying bacterial adaptation to the plant environment in @femsjournals.bsky.social Microbiology Reviews by @zakisaati.bsky.social et al academic.oup.com/femsre/advan...

🌱🔬 Check out our new paper in Microbiome! We used transcriptomics, comparative genomics, and metagenomics to find bacterial genes important for root adaptation, validating one that affects root growth and plant promotion. #Microbiome #Rhizosphere doi.org/10.1186/s401... @agrienvironcyl.bsky.social

New preprint! Soils are alive — yet we still know little about how farming reshapes them. Here we analyzed 1,921 soil microbiomes from 33 countries to uncover how agriculture—especially pesticides and fertilizers—is transforming microbial life globally. www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-8...

What happens to microbial genomic evolution in highly stable, closed ecosystems? In this preprint, authors look at 111 MAGs from a Romanian cave isolated from external influences for 5.5My(!) and see more pseudogenisation of core genes & limited HGT. Unsurprising? 🔗 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
