The Sorcerer II Global Ocean Sampling Expedition: Northwest Atlantic through Eastern Tropical Pacific

TL;DR: A metagenomic study of the marine planktonic microbiota in which surface (mostly marine) water samples were analyzed as part of the Sorcerer II Global Ocean Sampling expedition, which yielded an extensive dataset consisting of 7.7 million sequencing reads.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stress-Induced Mutagenesis in Bacteria

TL;DR: It is suggested that irrespective of the causes of their emergence, stress-induced mutations participate in adaptive evolution and could be a by-product of genetic strategies for improving survival under stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Timing and rate of speciation in Agave (Agavaceae)

TL;DR: The phylogenetic limits of Agave sensu lato are examined and the potential for both monocarpy and the evolution of a generalist pollination system, largely dependent on nectarivorous bat species, as possible driving factors in the radiation of the group are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Structure of Natural Populations of Escherichia coli in Wild Hosts on Different Continents

TL;DR: It is suggested that the strains from a wide range of wild hosts from different regions of the world are organized in an ecotypic structure where adaptation to the host plays an important role in the population structure.
