Microbial DNA on the move: sequencing based detection and analysis of transduced DNA in pure cultures and microbial communities
Kleiner, M., Bushnell, B., Sanderson, K. E., Hooper, L. V., & Duerkop, B. A. (2020, January 16). (Vol. 1). Vol. 1.
TL;DR:
The transductomics approach allows for the detection and characterization of genes that are potentially transferred between microbes in complex microbial communities at the time of measurement and thus provides insights into real-time ongoing horizontal gene transfer.

Microbe-dependent heterosis in maize
Wagner, M. R., Tang, C., Salvato, F., Clouse, K. M., Bartlett, A., Sermons, S., … Kleiner, M. (2020, May 7). (Vol. 5). Vol. 5.
TL;DR:
It is shown that heterosis of root biomass and other traits in maize is strongly dependent on the belowground microbial environment, an ecological phenomenon whereby soil microbes differentially impact the early growth of inbred and hybrid maize.

Metabolic differences between symbiont subpopulations in the deep-sea tubeworm Riftia pachyptila
Hinzke, T., Kleiner, M., Meister, M., Schlüter, R., Hentschker, C., Pané-Farré, J., … Markert, S. (2020, April 9). (Vol. 4). Vol. 4.
TL;DR:
Metaproteomic analysis and statistical evaluation strongly suggest that Riftia symbiont cells of different sizes represent metabolically dissimilar stages of a physiological differentiation process, and proposes that this division of labor between smaller and larger symbionts benefits the productivity of the symbiosis as a whole.

Soil acidification alters root morphology, increases root biomass but reduces root decomposition in an alpine grassland
ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION, 265.
author keywords: Acid deposition; Alpine meadow; Root dynamics; Root functional traits; Soil carbon stock; Soil pH
MeSH headings : Asia; Biomass; Ecosystem; Grassland; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Nitrogen / analysis; Soil; Tibet
TL;DR:
An important role of root morphology is suggested in mediating root dynamics, and results imply that soil acidification may lead to transient increase in soil carbon stock as root standing biomass and undecomposed root litter, which may reduce nutrient cycling and further constrain ecosystem productivity in nutrient-limiting alpine systems.

Bacterial exposure leads to variable mortality but not a measurable increase in surface antimicrobials across ant species
PEERJ, 8.
author keywords: Entomopathogen; Metapleural gland; Social immunity; Bacterial exposure; Social insects; Sociobiology; Antimicrobial
TL;DR:
The results demonstrate the susceptibility to bacteria is varied across ant species, and variation may correlate with an ant species’ use of surface antimicrobials, as significant mortality effects in species which also were producing antimicrobial compounds are found.

Comparative Genome Analyses of 18 Verticillium dahliae Tomato Isolates Reveals Phylogenetic and Race Specific Signatures
FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY, 11.
author keywords: Solanum lycopersicum; secreted effectors; whole genome resequencing; soilborne fungus; Verticillium dahliae race 2
TL;DR:
Four highly clonal lineages/groups were discovered, including a lineage unique to North Carolina isolates, which had the rare MAT1-1 mating type and may suggest that these highly variable regions are enriched in race determinant genes, consistent with the two-speed genome hypothesis.
