Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.Zaprionus kolodkinae flies carry a maternally inherited ixodetis clade Spiroplasma that protects its host against wasp attack but has low overall physiological impact. Genome analysis presented a set of known symbiosis‐relevant effectors, and one encoding—a ricin B domain protein—that is novel to this Spiroplasma genome.

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.Dual RNA‐seq reveals that ZmCrRLK1L19 and bacterial motility drive tissue‐specific maize–Xanthomonas interactions, distinguishing mesophyll from vascular colonization strategies. ABSTRACT Understanding how pathogens infect different tissue types and how plants mount tissue‐specific defences against bacterial pathogens is critical for improving disease ...

Evolutionary History of Bacteriophages in the Genus Paraburkholderia
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 The genus Paraburkholderia encompasses mostly environmental isolates with diverse predicted lifestyles. Genome analyses have shown that bacteriophages form a considerable portion of some Paraburkholderia genomes.

Alternating High‐Fat and Polysaccharide Diets Modulates Gut Phage‐Bacterial Interplay
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 29, 22 May 2026.This study reveals how alternating high‐fat and polysaccharide diets reshape the human gut virome and enhance phage‐bacteria interactions. Using large‐scale metagenomic meta‐analysis and a time‐resolved mouse model, the authors show that diets strongly modulate phage abundance, lifestyle, and gene exchange, offering new insights into nutrition‐guided ...

A Genomic Catalog of Migratory Microbiomes from Wild Birds across China's Habitats
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.ABSTRACT Migratory birds play an important role in the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR); however, gaps in surveillance data from vital regions along migratory flyways across China limit the detection of emergent threats. Here, we assembled 340 metagenomes from 52 bird species covering 11 provincial administrative districts in China, presenting ...
