We are continually in an evolutionary arms race with bacteria. As we develop new antibiotics, they develop resistance, and so ...

Scientists have uncovered an unexpected way that certain bacteria manipulate plants from within. Plant-infecting bacteria have a surprisingly direct way of taking over crops. Instead of slowly ...

Technique that inserts the genome of one bacterial species into the ‘dead’ cells of another could open doors for synthetic ...

Gut bacteria aren’t just passive passengers—they can actively send proteins straight into our cells. Using microscopic injection systems, even harmless microbes can influence immune responses and ...
