Agroecological transition: towards a better understanding of the impact of ecology-based farming practices on soil microbial ecotoxicology
Impact of ecology-based farming practices on soil microbial ecotoxicology.
The Microcystis-microbiome interactions: origins of the colonial lifestyle
Microcystis is a unicellular genus of Cyanobacteria provoking dense blooms formed by colonies of different sizes, which result from specific interactions between the cyanobacterium and its microbiome through a biofilm-like mechanism.
Perspective
More than the sum of its parts: uncovering emerging effects of microbial interactions in complex communities
Microbiome studies need to consider not only interactions between individual microorganisms, but also the emerging effects that interactions have on the entire community.
