This important study analyzes the effect of heat treatment on phage-bacterial interactions and convincingly shows that prior heat exposure alters the bacterial cell envelope, enhancing persistence and ...

The most well-known example of climate change driven by Milankovitch cycles is the occurrence of glacial-interglacial cycles during the Pleistocene Epoch, implying the advance and retreat of ice ...

I have come to terms with the fact that I am my family's cycle breaker and have worn that ... If we could predict Mom's moods, for example, and act accordingly to make peace, it could end up ...

pseudosolanacearum and phages, evaluation of single-phage biocontrol potential, and construction of phage cocktails This study collected tobacco with BW to screen phages with effective lytic activity ...

Whilst the ultimate outcome of the lytic cycle is production of new phage progeny and death ... eliminating susceptible hosts and promoting the propagation of resistance, by gene transfer for example, ...

Here, we uncover a critical physiological role for a widely misunderstood class of autolytic enzymes, lytic transglycosylases (LTGs). We demonstrate that LTG activity is essential to survival by ...

The causes of an economic cycle are widely debated among different economic schools of thought. Monetarists, for example, link the economic cycle to the credit cycle. Here, interest rates ...
