TL;DR: New insights are provided into complex post-transcriptional and -translational hierarchies that govern CAM in Agave, including widespread rescheduled expression of genes associated with signal transduction mechanisms that regulate stomatal opening/closing.

TL;DR: This review provides an overview of the current research into mechanisms employed by the plant host to select for and control its microbiome and specifically review recent research that expands upon the role of keystone microbial species, phytohormones, and abiotic stress, and in how they relate to plant driven dynamic microbial structuring.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify globally distributed haplotypes from 15,789 SARS-CoV-2 genomes and model their success based on their duration, dispersal, and frequency in the host population.

TL;DR: Community bipartite fungal-bacterial networks and PERMANOVA results attribute significant difference in fungal or bacterial communities to soil origin, soil chemical properties and plant genotype.

TL;DR: It is indicated that microcrystalline cellulose degradation at temperatures above 70°C, based on current information, is limited to certain members of this genus that produce GH48 domain-containing enzymes.
