Phylosymbiosis was recently formulated to support a hypothesis-driven framework for the
characterization of a new, cross-system trend in host-associated microbiomes. Defining …

Interest in the expanding catalog of uncultivated microorganisms, increasing recognition of
heterogeneity among seemingly similar cells, and technological advances in whole-genome …

Single cell genomics (SCG) uncovers hereditary information at the most basic level of
biological organization. It is emerging as a powerful complement to cultivation-based and …

Most biologically active microbial natural products are known from strains that can be

Many marine sponges are hosts to dense and phylogenetically diverse microbial
communities that are located in the extracellular matrix of the animal. The candidate phylum …

In spite of considerable insights into the microbial diversity of marine sponges, quantitative
information on microbial abundances and community composition remains scarce. Here, we …

The candidate phylum Poribacteria is one of the most dominant and widespread members of
the microbial communities residing within marine sponges. Cell compartmentalization had …

Soil is considered as a complex and dynamic biological system that provides diverse
habitats for the microbial community and is a hotspot for belowground microbial interactions …

The marine genus Pseudoalteromonas is known for its versatile biotechnological potential
with respect to the production of antimicrobials and enzymes of industrial interest. We have …
