[2/3] From a virulent phage previously found in our lab we noted that the closest relatives where not virulent phages but bacterial genome sequences. Surprisingly, we identified many virulent phage genomes within publicly available assemblies. This points to prevalent non-canonical phage lifestyles.

[1/3] Is your favorite bacterial isolate hiding a surprise lytic virus with a VERY different lifestyle? Finally I can proudly say that our paper on persistent phages is out in Nature Microbiology. rdcu.be/eWJEp. Well done @peterdoug.bsky.social

Over 15,000 doctors have signed a letter imploring the US Senate to reject Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s confirmation for Secretary of HHS. The letter states: “RFK Jr. is not only unqualified to lead this essential agency — he is actively dangerous.” 1/ www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

“For my next attention seeking trick, I will have you concentrate on Greenland, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Panama Canal—instead of my absurdly unqualified cabinet picks or that I have no real plans to fix the border or bring down food prices. Look, America, a rabbit!”

www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti..., Another unexpected result coming from Peter Dougherty's 2nd paper of his PhD. About phages targeting key wheat phyllosphere bacterial members. With surprising (interupted, modifyed and large) genetics... Out today, Check it out :)

Novel bacteriophages targeting wheat phyllosphere bacteria carry DNA modifications and single-strand breaks
The phyllosphere microbiome can positively or negatively impact plant health and growth, but we currently lack the tools to control microbiome composi…
