Abstract
Researchers show that the dynamics of metabolomic rearrangement dictate the growth response of bacteria and fungi to rapid changes in temperature. Single-cell microscopy revealed a mechanism for transient memory of previous temperatures and indicated that these responses are generally conserved, advancing our understanding of microbial behaviour in fluctuating environments.
期刊介绍:
Nature Microbiology aims to cover a comprehensive range of topics related to microorganisms. This includes:
Evolution: The journal is interested in exploring the evolutionary aspects of microorganisms. This may include research on their genetic diversity, adaptation, and speciation over time.
Physiology and cell biology: Nature Microbiology seeks to understand the functions and characteristics of microorganisms at the cellular and physiological levels. This may involve studying their metabolism, growth patterns, and cellular processes.
Interactions: The journal focuses on the interactions microorganisms have with each other, as well as their interactions with hosts or the environment. This encompasses investigations into microbial communities, symbiotic relationships, and microbial responses to different environments.
Societal significance: Nature Microbiology recognizes the societal impact of microorganisms and welcomes studies that explore their practical applications. This may include research on microbial diseases, biotechnology, or environmental remediation.
In summary, Nature Microbiology is interested in research related to the evolution, physiology and cell biology of microorganisms, their interactions, and their societal relevance.
