Single-cell trait diversity explains niche and fitness differences in aquatic microbial communities

The paper measures single-cell trait diversity in lake microbial communities and finds it correlates with ecosystem functioning, while genetic diversity does not.

Tackling Recalcitrant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infections In Critical Illness via Anti-virulence Monotherapy

This study identifies novel anti-MvfR compounds (NAMs) that reduce intestinal permeability and inflammation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections, offering a potential monotherapy for critical illness.

A multifaceted ecological assessment reveals the invasion of the freshwater red macroalga Montagnia macrospora (Batrachospermales, Rhodophyta) in Taiwan

This study assesses the invasion of Montagnia macrospora in Taiwan, finding it widespread and capable of asexual reproduction and ecological generalism.

Quantifying cell densities and biovolumes of phytoplankton communities and functional groups using scanning flow cytometry, machine learning and unsupervised clustering

The predictability of a lake phytoplankton community, from hours to years

This study uses machine learning to assess the predictability of phytoplankton communities in a lake across multiple time scales, finding high predictability from hours to months and novel ecological trade-offs.
