    Reliance on self-reports and estimated food composition data in nutrition research introduces significant bias that can only be addressed with biomarkers

    Javier I Ottaviani, Virag Sagi-Kiss ... Gunter GC Kuhnle
    The reliance on food composition databases for the assessment of dietary intake is unreliable and results in a large bias when investigating the associations between diet and disease risk.

    Bacterial symbiont subpopulations have different roles in a deep-sea symbiosis

    Tjorven Hinzke, Manuel Kleiner ... Stephanie Markert
    Physiological differentiation during symbiosis leads to division of labor between smaller and larger cells in an uncultured bacterial tubeworm symbiont population and results in remarkable metabolic diversity and complexity.

    Emergence of trait variability through the lens of nitrogen assimilation in Prochlorococcus

    Paul M Berube, Anna Rasmussen ... Sallie W Chisholm
    In the context of an organism's ecology, physiology, and macroevolutionary history, inheritance and gene loss can yield emergent patterns of trait variability that give the appearance of gene acquisition.

    Insight into the evolution of microbial metabolism from the deep-branching bacterium, Thermovibrio ammonificans

    Donato Giovannelli, Stefan M Sievert ... Costantino Vetriani
    The genome of Thermovibrio ammonificans encodes ancestral pathways (e.g., hydrogen oxidation) and more recently acquired ones (e.g., nitrate reduction) and a hybrid pathway for CO2 fixation.
  1. Open Science: What is publish, review, curate?

    Publish, Review, Curate (PRC) solves some of the challenges in research communication today. We take a look at the range of organisations working to make PRC a bigger part of scholarly publishing.
