Abstract: Bacterial viruses are the most abundant biological entities in soil ecosystems. Owing to the advent of metagenomics and viromics approaches, an ever-increasing diversity of virus-encoded auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs) have been identified in soils, including… read more here.

Abstract: Loners—individuals out of sync with a coordinated majority—occur frequently in nature. Are loners incidental byproducts of large-scale coordination attempts, or are they part of a mosaic of life-history strategies? Here, we provide empirical evidence of… read more here.
