Viruses may be more powerful in the International Space Station's microgravity environment
The International Space Station (ISS) is a closed ecosystem, and the biology inside it — including its microbial residents — ...
The International Space Station (ISS) is one of the most unique environments where life has ever existed, out in the low ...
On the ISS, viruses can still infect bacteria, but the process slows and pushes both organisms to evolve along different ...
Heat-resilient biofertilizers could help crops cope with rising temperatures but engineering them has been slow and uncertain ...

Researchers have devised a method for investigating how effective antibiotics are against different bacterial strains.
Some antibiotics stop bacteria from growing without actually killing them, allowing infections to return later. Scientists at ...
Scientists found that the space station phages gradually accumulated specific mutations that boosted their infectivity, or ...
Marine bacteria are key to determining whether carbon is recycled near the ocean surface or transported to deeper waters, but many operate in constant threat of being infected by viruses called phages ...
In space, bacteriophages mutate in ways not seen on Earth, making them more effective at killing drug-resistant bacteria.
A research team says their findings could help tackle soaring antibiotic-resistant infections that cause urinary tract ...
