Scientists uncover how insect-killing bacteria could lead to new antibiotics
A new study examined bacteria that live in tiny worms that kill insects, and ...
Many of the most potent antibiotics originate from bacteria. A large proportion belong to a class of compounds known as ...
A 2026 study in two insect-pathogenic bacterial genera found that selection, genetic drift and biased recombination jointly ...
Bacterial restriction-modification systems are responsible for protecting cells from foreign genetic material, for example, bacteriophages and plasmids. Immune systems require strict regulation, as ...
A new tribute article in Frontiers in Photobiology chronicles Giovanni Venturoli's decades of research on bacterial ...
New research shows bacteria form distinct species and maintain cohesion through frequent DNA exchange via homologous recombination. When Kostas Konstantinidis proved that many microbes -- like plants ...
Scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have created a platform that can pinpoint genetic triggers that turn microbes into efficient factories for new chemicals ...
