Streptomyces bacteria are ubiquitous in soil, conferring the characteristic earthy smell, and
they have an important ecological role in the turnover of organic material. More recently, a …

Microorganisms often form symbiotic relationships with eukaryotes, and the complexity of
these relationships can range from those with one single dominant symbiont to associations …

Microbial communities have a key role in the physiology of the sponge host, and it is
therefore essential to understand the stability and specificity of sponge–symbiont …

ABSTRACT A paradigm shift has recently transformed the field of biological science;
molecular advances have revealed how fundamentally important microorganisms are to …
