Genomic and metabolic adaptations of biofilms to ecological windows of opportunity in glacier-fed streams

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Leïla Ezzat, Massimo Bourquin, Matteo Tolosano, Tyler Joe Kohler, Stylianos Fodelianakis, Paraskevi Pramateftaki

In glacier-fed streams, ecological windows of opportunity allow complex microbial biofilms to develop and transiently form the basis of the food web, thereby controlling key ecosystem processes. Using metagenome-assembled genomes, we unravel strategies tha ...

Linking micro and macroevolution in the presence of migration

Sophie Myriam Hautphenne, Laurent Lehmann, Nicolas Salamin

Understanding macroevolutionary patterns is central to evolutionary biology. This involves the process of divergence within a species, which starts at the microevolutionary level, for instance, when two sub populations evolve towards different phenotypic o ...
