The fungal transcription factor SmpR coordinates secondary metabolism and antibacterial defence in Aspergillus fumigatus during interspecies interaction

This study identifies SmpR as a transcription factor that coordinates secondary metabolism and antibacterial defense in A. fumigatus in response to bacterial signals.

The buoyant cell density of Cryptococcus neoformans is affected by capsule size

The paper investigates how capsule size affects the buoyant cell density of Cryptococcus neoformans and finds that larger capsules reduce cell density, suggesting a role in aquatic dispersal.
