This paper introduces DSP as a reversible fixative for microbial cells that enables fluorescence imaging and DNA extraction, improving targeted microbial genomics.

The paper maps soil microbiome functions in wetlands to understand methane emissions by analyzing microbial communities and gene expression across spatial and temporal gradients.

The paper describes a novel thermophilic, strictly anaerobic bacterium isolated from biogas fermenters and hydrocarbon-rich habitats, expanding the taxonomic diversity of the Bacillota phylum.

This study resolves the phylogenetic position of Njordarchaeales and Panguiarchaeales, placing them as a new class Njordarchaeia within Asgard archaea and identifying Panguiarchaeum as a metabolically reduced, potentially symbiotic lineage.

This paper proposes a new genus and species, Patescibacterium danicum, to provide nomenclatural stability for the phylum Ca. Patescibacteria.
