Unveiling Host Interactions and Evolutionary Constraints of a Novel Bacteriophage Infecting Xanthomonas hortorum pv. vitians

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
A transposon insertion sequencing approach revealed that the novel phage ΦXhv‐1 targets Xanthomonas hortorum pv. vitians through LPS O‐antigen recognition. Mutations in LPS conferring phage resistance reduce bacterial motility and virulence, highlighting a trade‐off that may naturally constrain resistance development and support the sustainable phage ...

Mycobacterium smegmatis Expands Across Surfaces by Hydraulic Sliding

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
We present a new form of passive motility in mycobacteria, named hydraulic sliding, in which liquid expansion is the cause of motility. This study also reveals new ways mycobacteria can form biofilms and colonise 3D substrates, aspects of mycobacterial biology that are important for understanding infection, pathogenesis and vaccine development ...

Taking Down the Primary Cilium: Pathways for Disassembly in Differentiating Cells

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 11, November 2025.
Primary cilia are developmentally essential subcellular signaling compartments. However, many differentiated cells lack primary cilia, and cilia disassembly in these tissue contexts has been largely overlooked. We highlight several pathways for primary cilia loss and examine how changes in ciliation states could contribute to diverse pathologies ...
