Metabolomics has made significant progress in multiple fronts in the last 18 months. This
minireview aimed to give an overview of these advancements in the light of their contribution …

There is considerable debate about the sustainability of the hydraulic fracturing (HF) water
cycle in North America. Recently, this debate has expanded to China, where HF activities …

Microbial and viral communities transform the chemistry of Earth's ecosystems, yet the
specific reactions catalyzed by these biological engines are hard to decode due to the …

In marine ecosystems, viruses exert control on the composition and metabolism of microbial
communities, influencing overall biogeochemical cycling. Deep sea sediments associated …

The current paradigm, widely incorporated in soil biogeochemical models, is that microbial
methanogenesis can only occur in anoxic habitats. In contrast, here we show clear …

Rapidly thawing permafrost harbors∼ 30 to 50% of global soil carbon, and the fate of this
carbon remains unknown. Microorganisms will play a central role in its fate, and their viruses …

Climate change threatens to release abundant carbon that is sequestered at high latitudes,
but the constraints on microbial metabolisms that mediate the release of methane and …

Viruses play an important role in the ecology and biogeochemistry of marine ecosystems.
Beyond mortality and gene transfer, viruses can reprogram microbial metabolism during …

Hydrogen will be one of the key components for renewable energy storage in the future
energy systems as it can be stored in significant volumes to overcome daily to seasonal …

Because of their agricultural value, there is a great body of research dedicated to
understanding the microorganisms responsible for rumen carbon degradation. However, we …
