DOI: 10.1111/jeu.12944
Abstract: Microsporidia are obligatory intracellular parasites related to fungi and since their discovery their classification and origin has been controversial due to their unique morphology. Early taxonomic studies of microsporidia were based on ultrastructural spore features,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.03871-22
Abstract: This study developed PPNet, the first tool that can be used to infer large-scale bacterial functional association networks of a single species. PPNet includes a method for assigning the uniqueness of a bacterial strain using… read more here.
